Abstract
Against the backdrop of global educational models shifting towards core competencies, art education, as the core carrier of aesthetic education, has transcended traditional “teaching techniques” and has become a key pathway for fostering students' cultural understanding, innovative thinking, and social responsibility. Since the release of the “Core Competencies for the Development of Chinese Students” framework in 2016, the integration mechanisms of the five core competencies of the art discipline (image reading, artistic expression, aesthetic judgment, creative practice, and cultural understanding) have garnered significant attention. However, structural contradictions in educational practice are becoming increasingly apparent: on the one hand, visual thinking training can significantly activate the prefrontal cortex (gray density up by 12.3%), and on the other hand, 78.6% of secondary schools still use a skill-oriented evaluation system, highlighting imbalances in resource allocation.
