Current approaches and future trends in integrating digital education methods in Chinese traditional art education

Abstract

Introduction. The modern information society has had a significant impact on the education systems of many countries around the world. It enables openness, accessibility, mobility and lifelong education. In recent years, arts institutions and educators have grappled with finding the right balance between traditional and digital arts education. Traditional art techniques have long been the foundation of art education in colleges and universities. Aim. This study aims to investigate the integration of digital education methods in Chinese traditional art education and examine future trends and directions in this field. Focusing on exploring current approaches and anticipating future developments, the research seeks to provide insights into the evolving landscape of digital integration within the context of Chinese traditional art education. Research methods. To achieve the research objectives a systematic review involved to conducting a comprehensive search of relevant literature, including academic journals and conference proceedings. Studies discussing various methods, technologies, and pedagogical approaches for incorporating digital education in traditional art education settings would be identified and synthesized. A systematic review would involve searching and analyzing literature to explore methods of integrating digital education into Chinese traditional art education. Results. This study sheds light on the current approaches to integrating digital education methods in Chinese traditional art education while also offering insights into future trends and directions in this field. Based on Google Scholar search results using the keywords "digital education" and "traditional arts education" resulted in 19,800 publications. Multiple indexes were used leaving 13,600 publications. After filtering the types of literature into articles and review articles, 65 publications remained. Additionally, we removed duplicates, poorly indexed documents, and documents inconsistent with digital arts education research, reducing the number of publications to 10. Each bibliography entry includes author, institution, abstract, Google Scholar category, research topic, year of publication, publications (volumes), and references. In conclusion this study highlights the need for ongoing research and adaptation to effectively navigate the complexities of integrating digital education into traditional Chinese arts education while preserving its rich cultural heritage for future generations.
