The relationship between "aesthetics" and "aesthetic education": "Aesthetics" and "aesthetic education" are two related but not different disciplines. "Aesthetics" is at the philosophical level and belongs to the category of basic theories; "Aesthetic teaching" is at the scientific level and belongs to the category of applied theory.

"Aesthetics" is a theoretical discipline with its own independent integrity, while "aesthetic education" is an interdisciplinary discipline produced by the cross-penetration of "aesthetics" and pedagogy, "aesthetics" is the matriarchal discipline of "aesthetic education", and "aesthetic education" is a sub-discipline of "aesthetics".

"Educational aesthetics" is one of the important parts of education, and it is the product of the mutual penetration and high integration of pedagogy and aesthetics.
