How to make good use of Meishan folk art resources in teaching the course of graphic design is a topic of era and culture that cannot be ignored for the teaching reform of major of visual communication design in Hunan University of Humanities, Science and Technology. By analyzing the current situation of applying Meishan folk art resources to teaching the course of graphic design, we find that the lack of curriculum features and folk vision are the two main problems in current curriculum teaching. In order to solve the two major problems as mentioned above, we adopt three ways of teaching graphic design, namely, embedded knowledge module collocation, characteristic textbook development and potential course edification, aiming to encourage students to pursue the past and future of Meishan culture from its folk art resources and form the teaching characteristics for the major of visual communication design in Hunan University of Humanities, Science and Technology.
