Under the conditions of informatization and dynamism, visual design courses in higher vocational colleges exhibit issues such as lagging progress, static nature, singularity, and cultural inadaptability, which hinder the development of design education. Under the framework of deep learning, to cultivate visual design talents with profound professional expertise, strong practical skills, and innovative thinking, reforms are necessary in areas such as course objective setting, teaching content design, teaching method innovation, learning evaluation reconstruction, teaching resource integration, and local cultural reconstruction.
