With the advent of converged media, a qualitative change in the efficiency of dissemination and development of information has occurred, and this has had a positive impact on audiences. Research on the integration and development of traditional media with new media is recent, and has been focused, across the world, on the educational context. This study most specifically looks at art education. Or art teachers in further and higher education, the use of electronic media may not only lead to better work, creatively, but also more efficient real-time interaction, and the more effective collection of student feedback. Modern students' lifestyles and the teaching environment they are subject to, have created the basis for convergence media; within such an environment, cultural knowledge can be more quickly and conveniently accessed. Based on an analysis of innovative art education teaching methods within this era of convergent media, this paper proposes a design framework for the sharing of such high-quality teaching resources and the design of a shared teaching platform; these proposals are informed by the use of the 'extreme value' method to optimize the allocation of high-quality teaching resources in the framework design during the sharing process. The identification of an objective function can be effective in this context. The participation of an objective function within resource allocation can better guarantee that the best teachers can arrange the teaching programs that are most effective for particular courses - so that high-quality teaching programs can be better spread across the media available and so that the students can better accept and absorb this new teaching mode.

New media art education is the perfect combination of art and technology, which can promote the cultivation of comprehensive talents with artistic quality and technical ability. The introduction of brain neuroscience has brought about breakthroughs in the study of new media art education. The essence of the human brain is explored by brain neuroscience to enhance the teaching effect of new media art. From the three aspects of emotional neuroscience, mirror neurons and brain functioning mechanism, the laws of brain neuroscience are summarized. Then, the application of this law in the teaching of new media art is studied. The experimental results show the superiority of the teaching mode proposed in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ecological security is gaining importance for its role in human development, as traditional risk factors are being increasingly replaced by threats such as ecological and environmental changes. Taking the example of Xiamen estuary, a typical estuary in southern China, our research focused on the problems related to ecological security, caused by the degradation of ecosystem service and function. We propose an evaluation index system for assessing the ecological services, and standardize ways to determine the evaluation standards and weights. The results show that the ecological security index for Xiamen estuary is 57.1, indicating a “warning” state. This implies that the ecosystem there has been damaged to some degree, and its systematic structure is deteriorating. Twelve indices showed a score below 60, four of which belong to the category of supply services. The study shows that there are some problems associated with the ecological services in Xiamen estuary. The indices that were considered as unsecure include fish density, marine trophic level, primary productivity of water bodies, alien species invasion risk, and species diversity. We conclude that these problems are mainly caused by human activities such as over-fishing, reclamations, and industrial and agricultural pollution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
