Abstract
China's modern art education is undergoing a period of transformation under the influence of rapid digitalization and the integration of international pedagogical approaches. The research focuses on the analysis of the adaptation mechanisms of international digital pedagogical strategies in the context of art education in China using modern online platforms. Based on a comprehensive analysis of existing digital educational resources and their implementation in educational processes, key factors for the successful adaptation of foreign methods, taking into account the socio-cultural characteristics of China, have been identified. A mixed research method was applied, combining quantitative analysis of data on the effectiveness of digital platforms (n=1247) and qualitative study of the experience of teachers and students (n=327) from 18 art universities in China. The results of the study demonstrate a significant increase in students' creative potential (by 27,4%) and the development of critical thinking (by 32,6%) when using adapted international digital learning technologies. The relationship between the degree of personalization of the educational process and academic performance indicators (r=0.78, p<0.001) was revealed. A comprehensive model for integrating international digital pedagogical strategies into China's art education system has been developed, taking into account national specifics and modern requirements for training specialists. The results obtained contribute to the theoretical understanding of the processes of digital transformation of art education and have practical value for the development of effective educational programs.
