Abstract
Thai musical culture and performing arts are important resources for multicultural education. However, based on the current situation of Thai music culture and performing arts in Chinese universities, students lack understanding and learning about this valuable art and cultural resource. Therefore, this dissertation proposes a comprehensive framework for integrating Thai musical culture and performing arts courses into Chinese university curricula, including an introduction to Thai music and performing arts, and emphasizes the value of Thai music and performing arts and their positive impact on cultural exchange and cross-cultural music education from the aspects of philosophy, anthropology, sociology, and musicology. Finally, the course concept, objectives, teaching arrangement, content, resources, methods, evaluation strategies, and teaching case examples are designed to strengthen multicultural music education in Chinese universities.
