Abstract

In the context of "vocational education reform", the key lies in integrating aesthetic education into the curriculum, identifying teaching models and methods that align with the principles of aesthetic education, and enhancing the aesthetic capabilities of students within the art and design specialty cluster. This approach aims to ensure their comprehensive development, establish a solid foundation for future learning, and produce high-quality, highly skilled professionals for the industry. This, in turn, will foster healthy industry competition and an employment environment conducive to the career growth of individuals. Given the unique nature of the art design specialty cluster, it is an urgent research topic in secondary vocational education to develop aesthetic education courses and teaching methods that are suitable for both student development and professional advancement, while also being in harmony with the overall industry evolution and continuous industrial upgrading. The focus is on how to elevate students' aesthetic standards through aesthetic education, enabling them to discern beauty and ugliness and boost their morale and overall qualities. It is essential to guarantee that students experience holistic development in both physical and mental aspects and in their professional pursuits, establish a firm groundwork for their future studies and employment, and adhere to the overall industry benchmarks, thereby realizing the integration of post, course, competition, and certificate.
