Abstract

In response to the national strategy of “vigorously cultivating interdisciplinary talents and actively promoting interdisciplinary integration,” this article focuses on the nationally recognized Environmental Design program at Hezhou University’s College of Design, leveraging local industry advantages to engage in interdisciplinary integration through educational practices. Using the “Construction of the Panoramic Virtual Nature Museum of the Guizhou Crocodile Lizard at Mount Dagui” as a case study, we aim to establish a professional and interdisciplinary learning community, incorporate student-centered interactive teaching methods, boost student motivation, enhance teaching quality, nurture forwardthinking versatile innovative talents, and provide a guideline for interdisciplinary educational reform.
