Study on the Integration and Innovation Pathways of Etiquette Culture in Ceramic Design Theory Courses at Higher Education Institutions

Abstract

Etiquette culture serves as the core of Chinese traditional cultural values, possessing rich spiritual connotations and significant importance. Currently, ceramic design theory courses in higher education institutions are facing a series of challenges. Design education overly emphasizes the adaptability of course content to social demands, to some extent neglecting the intrinsic humanistic spirit. By employing approaches such as "illuminating etiquette through vessels," "comparing virtues with vessels," and "upholding both art and virtue," and utilizing objects as carriers, the fusion of etiquette culture with ceramic design theory courses can enhance the cultural literacy and spiritual horizons of design talents, achieving a subtle and unobtrusive educational impact.
