Abstract

The Stele Inscriptions and Calligraphy Models Course (SCC) carries the historical mission of inheriting traditional Chinese calligraphy culture. With the continuous development of modern calligraphy education, how to effectively integrate the SCC and enhance the teaching effect has become an important topic in current Chinese education research. The goal of this review paper is to explore the historical evolution of the SCC in calligraphy education and its integration in the modern teaching system.Using the literature review synthesis process, the study systematically reviews and synthesizes related scholarship. This paper reviews the historical development of the SCC, examines the positive impact of field study and academic research on calligraphy education, and discusses the challenges and opportunities faced in course integration. Studies suggest that learning in the SCC helps students understand calligraphy skills. Additionally, hands-on experience, immersive fieldwork strengthens their connection to traditional culture. At the same time, the study emphasizes the pedagogical implications of SCC and highlights directions for future exploration.New technologies and collaborations across different disciplines are creating new possibilities for expanding stele study in calligraphy education. Integrating calligraphy education with modern teaching methods can help preserve and develop Chinese calligraphy traditions. This approach also supports academic research and promotes cultural heritage.
