“From the Field to the Classroom”: A Study on the Construction of an Urban-Rural Co-Creative Design Teaching Model in the Context of Digital Countryside

Abstract

This study focuses on the challenges posed by the disconnect between traditional design education and societal demands within the context of the Digital Village Strategy and integrated urban-rural development. It proposes and constructs an urban-rural co-creation design teaching model termed From Field to Classroom. By deeply integrating Project-Based Learning (PBL) and Co-creation theory, it systematically elucidates the core elements and operational logic of this co-creation-based design teaching model, establishing a comprehensive teaching system comprising four stages: teaching preparation, pre-class learning, in-class exploration, and post-class reflection. The study aims to provide an innovative paradigm with theoretical depth and practical guidance for reforming design education in the new era.
