Ceramic products are important cultural heritages of human civilization, and continue to adorn modern lives with their vivid appearance and rich cultural implication. A beautifully crafted and tastefully formed ceramic piece embodies the technology and craft of its times, records the bits of history and life. Combining painting, poetry, calligraphy, sculpture on its tiny body, it also functions as a carrier of social education information, integrating all in one no matter ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, whole or partial, scientific or aesthetic. Thus its cultural and aesthetic value far exceeds its exquisite form and beautiful glaze, identified as " revealing metaphysical concept by tangible objects.” Based on the archaeological material, this course will systematically elaborates the origin, development and achievements of ancient Chinese ceramics from the aspects of history, technology and art.Part of the content is operated and filmed in VR, which is the first VR MOOC course in China, and there are many sitcoms related to the course.Some of them are filmed in VR.
