Abstract

Current design of traditional art-based intangible cultural heritage research and study programs for school-age children commonly suffers from fragmented curricula, lack of cultural immersion, and insufficient learning motivation. This paper focuses on the school-age population to explore feasible pathways for applying persuasive game theory to the design of traditional art-based intangible cultural heritage research and study programs. Through analyzing existing programs, the study identifies current design issues and assesses the compatibility of persuasive game theory with such product design. Finally, grounded in persuasive game theory and using the “cookbook” approach to persuasive game design as a practical framework, this study constructs a design process for traditional art-based ICH educational programs for school-age children. Taking Shengzhou bamboo weaving as a case study, it demonstrates concrete design practices, providing theoretical references and practical guidance for the living transmission of traditional art-based ICH and innovation in children’s cultural education.
