Historically, Zhongdukou was a pivotal hub for ceramic production and trade, shaping Jingdezhen's socio-economic and cultural landscape. However, modernization and urbanization have introduced infrastructure instability, diminishing cultural identity, and environmental degradation. Drawing on Niklas Luhmann's systems theory, the research explores the dynamic interactions between ceramic art as a social system and its ecological and socio-economic environment while identifying sustainable development strategies. Using interdisciplinary methods, including historical document analysis, field interviews, and policy evaluation, the study investigates Zhongdukou's historical significance, current challenges, and potential pathways for integrating traditional craftsmanship with modern educational frameworks. Results highlight that educational literacy is critical in bridging cultural preservation and modernization by fostering community engagement, promoting sustainable production practices, and leveraging innovative pedagogical tools such as digital platforms and interactive exhibits. Moreover, ecological communication mechanisms enable ceramic art to adapt to modern demands while maintaining cultural and environmental integrity. The findings underscore the need for collaborative efforts among local artisans, policymakers, and educators to ensure Zhongdukou's enduring legacy. This research provides a comprehensive framework for sustainable cultural and ecological development, offering theoretical and practical insights that contribute to global discussions on heritage preservation, educational innovation, and environmental sustainability.","PeriodicalId":429306,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Literacy Studies","volume":"13 2","pages":"281-286"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147902509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data were obtained from participants’ experiences and opinions and may be used to develop a conceptual framework concerning self-regulated learning skills and how these skills can be applied in teaching. This study reveals the importance of autonomy and co-regulation in the learning process, with a focus on teachers’ roles in fostering student autonomy and giving support. Previous research has shown that self-regulation tactics can be incorporated in education to improve learners’ self-regulation capacities. This study suggests that the “Individualized and Co-regulated Teaching Model in Instrument Education,” a student-centered method that stresses dialogue-oriented learning, teacher-student interaction, and tailored learning needs may be appropriate for many learners. Teachers are encouraged to adopt individualized teaching orientations, allowing students to set their own learning goals and monitor their progress, as guided by this model. Furthermore, efficient communication and co-regulation between teachers and students promote self-regulation and musical development. Given the growing importance of self-regulated learning skills in the distance learning era, educational programs should focus their development and empower learners to become independent, and lifelong learners through collaborative knowledge production. The findings of this study imply that more research on the application of self-regulation skills in instrument acquisition among lower-achieving or less-experienced students is needed. Overall, this study highlights the importance of self-regulated learning skills in instrument teaching and advocates its incorporation into instructional procedures.","PeriodicalId":429306,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Education and Literacy Studies","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140492044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study is to investigate the fostering of literacy through the transmission of Chinese Dongbei Dagu vocal songs in Xiuyan County, Liaoning Province. The research utilized questionnaires and interviews with six key informants as research tools, including two academic experts, three singers of Dongbei Dagu, and one musical accompanist, who played a pivotal role in providing invaluable insights into various facets of Dongbei Dagu, ranging from its historical significanceto the methods employed for its traditional and modern transmission. Qualitative data analysis revealed the existence of two primary modes of transmission: the time-honored apprentice style and the familial family-style methods within traditional settings. Moreover, it uncovered contemporary transmission modes that ingeniously adapt to folk activities, tea houses, theaters, and specialized training workshops. The research findingsunderscore the paramount importance of cultural databases, governmental support, educational initiatives, innovation, audience expansion, and early education in the continuous preservation and promotion of Dongbei Dagu.

Data for this study was collected quantitatively through measures of analytical thinking, problem-solving, and creative thinking. The research results revealed that the students’ thinking competencies improved significantly. In CoP A, the students demonstrate a positive trajectory in developing competencies across all thinking competency, particularly excelling in analytical thinking. In problem-solving and creative thinking, the majority exhibit proficiency ranging from high to moderate levels. Meanwhile, in CoP B, most of the students show positive progress in thinking competencies, with high and moderate proficiency in problem-solving and creative thinking.
