Accordingly, it incorporates fashion illustrations into the “clothing” unit of a junior high home economics course to develop a “fashion illustration themed” curricular teaching plan. The aim of the research is to integrate the operations of two disciplines to create an effective education platform while improving the students’ abilities in clothing connotations, aesthetics appreciation, creative thinking and skills performance. 　　Prior to the education design, the study conducts a literature review and lays out the research processes and steps. In-depth interviews were conducted to gain an understanding of the actual learning situations in the courses on home economics and arts and humanities. The interview data was compiled and then a course outline and the teaching processes were planned out. Additionally, a course plan and the assessment criteria were developed: 1)By incorporating fashion illustrations into a collaborative teaching plan, the home economics students are able to gain an understanding of the connotations of “trends” and “fashion”; also learning to recognize and experience the skills associated with dressing stylishly. The students were thereby able to improve their skills in color perception, color matching and fashion illustrations. 2)The education design uses a “thematic” and “group learning” collaborative teaching model to connect home economics with arts and humanities. It applies the three education models of “cooperative learning”, “creative thinking” and “flipped classroom teaching” to bolster the learning content related to attire. 3)Through the interdisciplinary collaborative teaching designed “Fashion Illustration Curriculum”, students can understand, appreciate and apply clothing connotations – and by cooperating with teams, they cultivate attitudes of respect, tolerance and empathy towards one another.
