Aesthetic education is a key aspect of holistic education, and aesthetic competency is a core competency in Taiwan’s Curriculum Guidelines of 12-Year Basic Education. How students learn to perceive aesthetics in class and develop aesthetic competency is a topic that warrants further research. The connotations of aesthetics changes in time and space must be integrated with social and cultural perspectives and context. The opinions of aesthetic life practitioners can help clarify how aesthetics can be implemented in everyday life. Furthermore, these opinions can serve as models for student learning. Therefore, the purposes of this study were to analyze the practical wisdom of life aesthetics practitioners by focusing on diet, design a diet aesthetics experimental course, and evaluate the designed course’s learning effect. Students from two classes in a junior high school in New Taipei City, Taiwan, were enrolled as participants in this quasi-experimental study. The diet course was designed by applying the design-based research method. The results of a questionnaire survey revealed that the experimental group outperformed the control group. Further analyses of each construct (i.e., three aspects of aesthetic education and four learning objectives) were conducted. Finally, several suggestions regarding the future implementation of the proposed course are provided. |
