Charm Factors of Clay and Composite Materials in Aesthetic Education Curriculum

Abstract

The significance of aesthetic education is increasingly acknowledged for its role in enhancing students’ motivation for creativity, aesthetic sensibility, critical thinking, and imagination. This enhancement enriches the practice of art education, providing students with expansive learning experiences. Focusing on the use of clay and composite materials in aesthetic education, we analyzed how the curriculum and creative courses can increase the attractiveness of learning. The incorporation of clay and composite materials into the presentation of athletic figures affected students’ artistic endeavors. The diversity of the course content and artistic skills are important factors in augmenting creative activities. Hence, educators need to consider such attributes in the development and execution of curricula in aesthetic education and stimulate students’ artistic innovation and potential. The results of this study suggest a way to improve aesthetic education and composite material creation courses to elevate students’ creativity and artistic competencies.
