[Course Highlights] High School Affiliated to Taipei Municipal University─Plant Healing

The development of this course is based on the core competencies in the art field, emphasizing the integration of art learning with life and culture, breaking away from the study of knowledge and skills alone, and integrating the three core competencies mentioned in the general outline: "autonomous action" and "communication" Interaction" and "social participation". In the "Independent Action" part, since the course requires students to design paper models by themselves and develop the paper models into pottery pots, they can achieve practical action by creating ideas; in the "Communication and Interaction" part, through "Succulent & Plant Healing" The theme concept allows learners to acquire comprehensive and integrated knowledge through the learning process, under the leadership of teachers in different fields, so that the transfer of knowledge should be mutual application rather than just application in a single field, through art. as a medium to connect the mutual application of symbols in each other's fields; in the "social participation" part, through practical courses, learners can learn from each other and share each other's works, and the interaction of the group can trigger personal aesthetic appreciation. This year's course uses clay as a creative medium, with the theme of "Succulent & Planting and Healing". In the first semester of 109, students learned how to design and develop clay pot paper patterns from the "Mathematics Field" course, and use clay rods to shape the shapes. It is formed into a pottery board, and the geometric structure of the pottery board involves using different geometric structures to form a three-dimensional pottery pot. The pottery pot can also be used as aquatic plants and terrestrial plants. The pottery pot is completed after underglaze painted pottery pot, biscuit firing, and kiln firing. In addition, It also actually explores the shrinkage ratio of weight and size of pottery pots during the firing process, and understands the characteristics of pottery as a creative medium through the calculation process. After completing the pottery pot, the "Biology" teacher will then introduce planting. After learning about planting, the learners will try to design pottery pots with their own hands, so that the pottery pot they designed can become the new wedding dress of the plants, and through the planting During the process of planting, you can experience peace of mind, just as Canadian art therapist Mitchell Hewson mentioned in the book "The Healing Power of Plants": "...Nature teaches us how to avoid repeating the same mistakes, because the life cycle of plants enlightens us about the renewal of life. Hope, and a chance to start over.”
