How college students can establish a correct aesthetic outlook

Aesthetics is a transcendent and comprehensive education. There are different opinions on this in the academic circles, and there is no definite conclusion. If we directly place it in the entire educational practice and examine it from the multi-faceted perspective of today’s college students’ living environment and social and cultural background, it is not difficult to find that aesthetics, as a formalized and emotional educational characteristic, has The goal is to cultivate and develop the perceptual abilities of the educated, including sensitivity, appreciation, imagination, creativity, etc., to cultivate a sound and noble personality, to shape the perfect ideal human nature, and to ultimately realize the realization of man and nature, man and society, and man and man. The ultimate pursuit of harmony between human sensibility and rationality. Aesthetics emphasizes "cultivating", which is the subject's active participation and full-hearted devotion, allowing you to experience beauty, success, happiness, and sublimity, and subtly improve your sensitivity to beauty, appreciation, creativity, and self. Perfect ability, don't let "beauty" slip away quietly. How to advocate a positive aesthetic?

First, schools should pay attention to the aesthetic education of college students, give it an independent status, and fully understand the comprehensive intermediary role of aesthetics in the quality education of college students. The famous German esthetician Immanuel Kant proposed the comprehensive intermediary role of aesthetic education in "Critique of Judgment". He believed that beauty is the bridge between truth and goodness. In the history of ancient education in my country, aesthetic education has been elevated to the level of "comprehensive" and "complete" in the entire education system. Confucius said: "It thrives in poetry, establishes itself in etiquette, and succeeds in music." In his view, the cultivation of a gentleman requires the enlightenment of knowledge through the study of poetry and other literary works, the shaping of personality and character through the study of etiquette systems, and the mastery of behavioral and moral norms. Only then can one finally become a gentleman. It can be seen that the summary of the laws of educating people by ancient philosophers is worthy of our deep thought and reference. As a contemporary college student, if he lacks the basic ability to feel beauty and ugliness, then he is not a literate and civilized person.

Second, aesthetics should be implemented in all aspects of school education. Developing aesthetics among college students is the common responsibility of all disciplines and majors and all educational links in the school. It is also the common pursuit of creating an educational realm of beauty in subject and professional education. The famous artist Wu Guanzhong once talked about his aesthetic feelings about high technology. He said: "The bacteria, germs, proteins and other primitive life forms that I saw at the Institute of Biology of Tsinghua University were magnified and reflected on the screen. They were diverse, complex and unique. The structural laws are like an unexpected exhibition of abstract art, most of which are beautiful. In October 2001, Mr. Yang Zhenning, the winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics, celebrated his 80th birthday. The famous mathematician Mr. Chen Shengshen gave a speech on his birthday called "Mathematics and Beauty". In response, Yang Zhenning gave a report on "Physics and Beauty" before Mr. Chen Shengshen's 90th birthday. They explored the "beauty" that exists in natural sciences, which made the non-mathematics and non-physics students present feel this. , there is also touching beauty among the wonderful numbers and symbols. It can be seen that the profound wonders of the universe and the wonderful phenomena of life, as aesthetic media, will increase the acceptance of college students, deepen the aesthetic education effect, and at the same time enhance people's understanding of the world. Affinity with nature.

Third, further broaden the horizons of aesthetics. Make full use of resources and extend aesthetics outside the school to the entire society, such as art galleries, concert halls, museums, and natural scenery, historical sites, Historical relics, cultural landscapes, etc. are all good places for college students to carry out aesthetic education activities. For example, last year, a provincial college launched ballet, symphony and other high-end arts on campus, and college students performed Cantonese opera, so that college students can understand my country's excellent national art and cultural traditions. Excellent foreign artistic achievements cultivate their ability to feel and appreciate beauty, establish a correct aesthetic outlook, resist the influence of bad culture, and promote the all-round development of college students. Such an aesthetic orientation will naturally give students a subtle influence on beauty, so that they can Seize the countless "beautiful things" around you. Otherwise, the world will not distinguish between beauty and ugliness, and even beauty will be regarded as ugly. Therefore, establishing a correct aesthetic concept is the primary task of college students' aesthetic quality education. People's aesthetics can be divided into right and wrong, noble and vulgar, advanced and backward, healthy and pathological.

Why do some people think the same thing or phenomenon is beautiful while others think it is ugly? The fundamental reason is that their aesthetics are different. We must establish Marxist aesthetics, establish lofty aesthetic ideals and scientific aesthetic standards, cultivate healthy aesthetic tastes, and resist the erosion of decadent and backward aesthetics. A person's aesthetic quality is a concentrated expression of his or her ideology, moral sentiments, and values. Noble and sound aesthetic quality is related to a person's healthy growth. Only when contemporary college students have noble and sound aesthetic qualities can they become all-round, perfect and socially useful talents. Aesthetics exist in clothing, music, and the Internet. Maybe the specifics for each person will vary from person to person, place and time.
