Innovation of “Workshop” Mode in Modern Practice Teaching of Environmental Design Major

International Journal of Technology Management1 IntroductionEnvironmental art design is a blend of art, architecture, landscape, cultural environment, construction and other fields furnishings comprehensive discipline, but also a highly practical disciplines. At present, many domestic colleges and universities are now offering this course in environmental design practice teaching model also carried out a series of reforms and explore. However, most open environment design professional institutions reform effect is not ideal, the reason is not fully based on reality, built up in favor of the application of talent, more reasonable teaching system, not based on environmental art and design education its own characteristics and the actual needs of the market to develop design talent.Industry trends determine the change in professional colleges and universities teaching mode, environmental design because in recent years in the construction industry, driven, formed a good momentum of development. Therefore, for people entering the industry, environmental design requirements are also increasing, which is mainly reflected in the practice experience. A good designer should not only have profound theoretical knowledge, but also in the signing of the contract, terms of project design, budget and fi nal accounts, construction supervision has a wealth of experience, which requires environmental design major in the teaching process to strengthen the sense of practice teaching.Students are the main environmental design teaching and teachers should subtly guide and inspire students to practice awareness in the teaching process. American educator said: “Just tell students scientific concepts and principle is not efficient.” The study also found that psychological experts, a specifi c scene teaching will increase the enthusiasm of students, the students are familiar with the theory of teaching arrangements in environment which performed so that students can consciously into teaching activities. The door to the ergonomic theory class, for example, teachers in the basic course on to explain, at fi rst, the students set specifi c measurement tasks, then let the students come out from the classroom to the bedroom, dining room, library and so they familiar environment to go to space and materials to conduct site surveys, measurements data is completed, the actual measurement of aggregated. Finally, the size of the control data and indicators provided in ergonomics, and found differences textbook summary of data and the actual space and the size of the object, so that students in the process of teaching theory course through hands-on experience, more deeply grasp textbook knowledge and understanding of real life items placed in different places on the size requirements of the similarities and differences, for the latter case design courses lay a good foundation. Finally realize that the relationship between theory and practice, and to enhance students’ awareness of the practice, so that students in the future be able to take the initiative to put into practice activities to consolidate the theoretical knowledge and theoretical knowledge into practice.Environmental design teaching process focusing on specifi c aspects of teaching practice, requires colleges and universities to further improve the construction of practice base, make the environment design students at the school can accept standard industry training, shorten the adaptation period of graduates entering the workplace, thereby improving environmental designstudents’ employment success rate.Figure.1 Environmental design2 The Proposed Methodology2.1 Based on workshop mode of operationWorkshop mobility is stronger joint working mode and in order to discuss the entire process quickly and find the most suitable site solution we must do a lot of butt in the early stage of coordination work. On the exhibition front, the more the level of the communication to solve problems, practice the process of resistance will be smaller.Art and design education with emphasis on cultivating innovation and creativity of students emotional level ofI nnovation of “Workshop” Mode in Modern PracticeTeaching of Environmental Design MajorFang Tu( Wuhan Donghu University,Wuhan, Hubei Province,430212 China )Abstract. In recent years, colleges and universities of the international cooperation and increase exchange opportunities, new forms of teaching cooperation: Joint workshop interscholastic consequent, is a good way to promote art and design professional domestic and international exchanges. Workshop practice teaching model is increasingly being taken seriously in college teaching design, the paper analyzes the school of design Workshop’s fi rst teaching mode, status of development and systematic investigation of University teaching studio at home and abroad into the details of the Workshop teaching mode in design majors unique advantages, a number of recommendations to build Workshop practice teaching model, in order to improve the artistic design students innovative ability.Keywords: workshop, education, environmental design, professional practice teaching, innovative research.— 69 —Conference Proceedings Citation Indexconsciousness, a strong personality and art students of divergent thinking has certain advantages, but also lead to further academic rigor is not enough, the design works great there is lack of design elements stacked and sense of space extent. So whether it is the school practice or with the outside joint teaching, curriculum teachers and students have to practice the subject of pre-collection, research, discussion, docking and the need to use design software to simulate the scene a sense of space, some consensus in the initial communication. This process enhances the systematic and rigorous practice of teaching and consistent throughout the teaching process, reinforce the spirit of seeking truth and art and design professional teachers.2.2 Workshop backgroundTeaching model Workshop or activity that is the camp for a long time, the earliest dating back to the establishment of the German Bauhaus School of Design in the early 20th century as the 1919 Walter Gropius advocated “art and technology”, “teaching and practice,” a combination of the education system, the “dual system” of teaching, each course by an “art teacher” (form teacher) and a “technology teachers” (studio teacher) together professors, students also received a double education of art and technology. Bauhaus workshops teaching form is actually today’s studio in the form of prototype, it is a completely open, some basic characteristics with enterprise features and design companies.European and American design artistic level has been a world leader, thanks Workshop practice teaching. This form is not only present in the university’s teaching, but also in primary and secondary education, and has become a key Western countries to improve the quality of teaching to inspire students to think independently, cultivate innovation.2.3 Workshop practice teaching mode connotation and featuresWorkshop is hosted by one or several with expertise in a certain fi eld as the core, by the research team of about 10 people at the moderator’s guide for topics to explore research by organizing various activities. Workshop in a foreign country is known as the “creative Workshop”, that is the way multilateral cooperation projects, which vary in size, is used for more intensive stage of the project, and its essence is to use peer pressure and effective guidance to complete some complex and challenging work. Workshop practice teaching model is a comprehensive practice teaching mode, teaching mode is a profession of teaching theory and practice of combining.Workshop practice subject teaching mode of students to train instead of imparting knowledge and abilities in a panel discussion instead of class teaching system and it emphasizes student-centered, teacher guide, student respect and trust of students, for students to be fully developed personality. In the process of teaching exchange, teachers do not give students answers to questions or provide information, but to teach students how to explore the answer to that question, and promote independent learning, through summary evaluation to measure learning outcomes.Workshop teaching model emphasizes learning by doing, training and exercise capacity in practice, through market research, internal and external teaching base practice, social practice and other activities for students out of the textbook, out of the classroom, prompting students to indirect books, system professional knowledge and expand the rapid conversion, which is applied to practical work to enable students to truly step into the actual design phase.Workshop practice teaching mode of teaching respect for the art and design their own special and creative law, a blend of classroom instruction, contests, projects, practices; strengthen the process of teaching, practice teaching, study and research to create a good atmosphere for students with limited innovation culture within the comprehensive capability. It broke the previous traditional teaching mode, the passive acceptance of knowledge into the students active learning, art and design teaching in a very meaningful practice teaching.2.4 Construction Workshop Practice Teaching ModeReform of curriculum, workshop in art and design practice teaching mode, the system is very important to establish a good course. Art and Design is the fundamental goal of professional training courses based system to adjust the capacity necessary for the professional training of decomposition, matching courses and systematize, and establish a modern management education as the guide and many courses were integrated curriculum system. Course Group clearly the respective center of gravity and interrelated, highlight Main Courses, close convergence at all stages and at all levels of the curriculum, as well as contact with the vertical and horizontal curriculum subjects. At the same time, according to the capacity-building to develop a reasonable scientific syllabus, highlighting the theme of the design, the students focus on the overall design thinking to guide and inspire. We need to learn cognitive law gradual completion of the task of teaching, building the foundation to expand the group courses, professional courses group focused practice courses and professional quality of internal and external education programs covering multi-dimensional, three-dimensional curriculum, enable students to master basic At the same time a comprehensive theoretical knowledge of professional practice to master skills and achieve sustainable development of art and design education.2.5 Extended research practice baseArt and design courses are mainly practical courses. Workshop to promote the implementation of practical teaching mode requires multi-level research practice base for students to practice the project, in order to truly implement the teaching practice. We should actively expand research practice base, innovation and research exchange platform, technology, knowledge, talent, information and other resources to the mutual flow. This discipline construction played a direct guiding and promoting the role of students in professional quality of training and training in the real business environment, the ability to expertise courses to learn skills and the actual design combine to enhance students’ practical ability, achieve direct contact with the market, and positions during practice and expand their horizons, to lay a broader foundation for future employment.Perfecting Teaching Management Mechanism. Changes in teaching mode will inevitably lead to changes in management, teaching evaluation and so on, so we need to establish a comprehensive and integrated management of the agency.— 70 —International Journal of Technology ManagementWorkshop teaching activities carried out in the beginning, teachers and workshop instructors teaching must develop a detailed deployment, detailed teaching mission and objectives, methods, themes, organization and other programs and submitted College teaching management mechanism for review to protect the daily teaching and independent studio running smoothly and achieved good teaching results when the development of teaching teachers should grasp the deployment of dynamic design, pay attention to the integration of new knowledge, new technology, new areas, new problems in the course.2.6 Innovation Workshop evaluation systemExamination evaluation system of art design course is to achieve effective support for personnel training objectives. Based on the analysis of art design teaching and assessment on the status of the problem, focus on training objects necessary knowledge, ability and quality structure required to build fl exible assessment methods, assessment comprehensive and scientific evaluation criteria diversifi ed art course evaluation system.2.7 Current Environmental Art College Teaching and Development ProblemsCurrently, due to environmental art and design in China is still an emerging discipline, the relative lack of experience in teaching, teaching system is still not perfect. Especially in the mode of living design education, there are still many problems in terms of how to foster innovative and application-oriented talents.First, because of the control mechanism for the appointment of universities, environmental design professional teachers mainly from related institutions graduate design professionals. Although most of these teachers are more abundant theoretical knowledge, artistic accomplishment is higher. But after entering the system of colleges and universities, teaching is mostly arduous task, not too much time and energy into practice projects. Over time, teachers themselves can easily be separated from social practice, some of the latest and most cutting-edge design concepts and knowledge decorative materials and process technologies are not updated knowledge and practical needs of the community classroom granted a far cry from the situation often appears on paper.Secondly, the traditional teaching mode usually pay attention to the system of teaching theory, ignoring the principle of renewal and development of the theory of the times match. Students are often limited to the classroom. Of course, for schools, classroom teaching really easy assessment and management, but they ignore environmental design disciplines such strong features of its own practice. This mechanical teaching model is likely to cause teachers scripted, students passive learning situation.2.8 Reform practice of innovative teaching modeFirst, we should establish a mechanism for training teachers to encourage teachers to teach in the post apart, rotation learning training, which is not necessarily confined to colleges and universities, teachers should use its own resources, to participate in social practice project. Department can arrange courses, regularly organized teams of teachers out inspection training, teacher training after professional teaching in this report learning experience, to carry out academic exchanges between teachers, teachers to maximize learning, but also conducive to mutual teaching team learn from each other as teachers in the teaching part of the professional practice courses, according to the characteristics and requirements of the curriculum, class time and in the form of job completion and assessment criteria, to take a variety of specifi cations and methods. This fl exible and open form of teaching is actually more conducive to grasp the knowledge students multiple professional disciplines.Environmental art design professional teaching practice should be based on reality, the development of keeping with the times. Only continue to improve their teaching ideas to improve the quality of teaching, in order to cultivate the ability of both innovation and practical ability has excellent design talent3 ConclusionWorkshop is based on exchange, interaction, new research practice teaching mode as the main form, which is the current art and design education tend talents training model innovation is consistent. The development of innovative education, and social standards and international standards, we must build a scientific and rational curriculum, supporting the practice platform, the workshop practice teaching track parallel in art and design education, so that students will course learn professional knowledge, skills and market application of combining the quality of vocational training and training in practice to achieve during the learning market, direct contact with the post, and then train students’ innovation, entrepreneurship, and ultimately achieve the ultimate goal of design education.Reference1.
