Abstract:

This study explores the integration of drawing therapy with bio-information to develop a multi-structured teaching model aimed at enhancing physical and mental health in biotechnology-related education. By leveraging the principles of drawing therapy, visual drawings are utilized as a medium to reveal the inner psychological states of students. Through the use of image color intention as an analytical tool, hidden language information within the drawings is extracted, enabling the identification of underlying emotional and psychological patterns. Representative drawings are further analyzed to capture psychological information mapped within emotional spaces, facilitating more accurate diagnoses of students' mental health. Incorporating biological elements into the drawing therapy process introduces a novel approach to altering cognitive structures and promoting psychological well-being. By blending art with bio-information, this method achieves therapeutic outcomes, helping students better understand biological concepts while addressing mental health challenges. Results indicate that drawing therapy effectively captures emotional characteristics, reducing negative emotional values to less than 0.05. Additionally, integrating bio-information into the teaching model led to over 75% of students achieving improved physiological index scores. A majority of participants—90.85% of students and 65.03% of teachers—reported that the approach enhanced biological knowledge and significantly contributed to physical and mental health improvements. This research highlights the potential of combining drawing therapy with biotechnology to create innovative educational tools that address both psychological and physiological well-being. The study provides a scalable framework for integrating art-based therapeutic techniques into biotechnology education, offering new avenues for promoting health, emotional resilience, and scientific understanding. These findings underscore the commercial and academic potential of art-therapy-based models for fostering holistic development in educational and therapeutic contexts.
