The Design
About Joyful Visang Libros de texto de educación primaria
Joyful Visang es una serie de libros de texto de educación primaria para matemáticas, ciencias sociales y ciencias naturales. Los libros se centran en el juego y la actividad para fomentar la participación activa del alumnado. Cada portada refleja el contenido de la asignatura: formas geométricas que componen objetos cotidianos para matemáticas, una vista desplegada del mundo para ciencias sociales e historias de héroes para ciencias naturales. Las esquinas redondeadas y un recubrimiento antibacteriano mejoran la seguridad. Una solapa plegable funciona como marcapáginas, un área perforada permite escribir el nombre y la impresión lenticular añade un efecto tridimensional.

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

- Visang developed play and activity-oriented elementary school textbooks that encourage active student participation. Learning content was developed to demonstrate its applicability to students. The mathematics text cover combines several geometric shapes to express the appearance of objects in the world. The social studies text evokes curiosity by 'looking into the world' as it unfolds in the book. The science text stimulates the power of imagination with stories of heroes.

- Tags
- math, science, society, vividness, learning, education, textbook, book design, children, students
- Production Technology
- Antibacterial coating and the rounded corners of the book for the safety of students. Visang added function and aesthetics through post-processing techniques. The math text uses a foldable flap that serves as a bookmark. For social studies, a perforated portion can be removed, leaving a space to write the students’ own names for identification. Lastly, science textbooks employ 3D lenticular technology, giving a moving, three-dimensional effect to the subject, piquing students’ curiosity.
- Design Challenge
- Digital natives are daily exposed to various media and colorful designs and have recognized traditional textbook designs as dull and boring. To remedy this, Visang transformed textbook designs in tandem with research institutes and through a variety of design experiments. In addition, following changes in the educational environment and student perspectives, Visang designed their textbooks to fully cultivate student subject competencies through remote classes or self-regulated learning.
- Research
- Visang textbooks are designed to be play and activity-centered, based on experiences that allow children to digest the contents of the textbook. After passing the 2021 accreditation for elementary textbooks, it was confirmed that the math, social studies, and science textbooks can kindle curiosity in students.
- Inspiration
- Traditionally, effective designs were aimed at universality that would not interfere with studying. However, modern students, who are daily exposed to diverse media and designs, find the old textbooks banal and uninspiring, failing to be interested or curious about the subjects. In order to remedy the problems of dull designs in the existing textbooks, Visang conducted experiments in cooperation with research institutes and directed the results towards changing textbook design.
- Project Duration
- This project first began in January 2020, and was completed in October 2021 / Korea, Visang
- Operation Flow
- Visang proposes an educational perspective aimed toward engaging learning. The cover design includes content from the course, enabling students to have engaging discussions and activities about what students will learn. Not only are the cover designs connected to learning content, but also employ dynamic and vibrantly colored illustrations that spark student interest. Additionally, the main text is designed to maximize the learning effect by considering the natural movement of the readers’ eyes.
