- Lecture 1: Valley & Mountain Folds — Origami basics, notation symbols, crease control, first folding practice.
- Lecture 2: Paper Boat & Jumping Frog — First models, squash fold introduction, functional origami competition.
The Origami & Islamic Art course is designed to introduce students to creativity through structured paper folding, geometric construction, and traditional artistic patterns. Students begin by learning the fundamental techniques of origami such as valley folds, mountain folds, and basic crease control, then gradually progress toward more complex models including animals, modular structures, and 3D forms. Alongside origami, learners are introduced to Islamic art concepts such as symmetry, repetition, arabesque patterns, and geometric design inspired by historical civilizations. As the course advances, students create hands-on projects including origami models, geometric star patterns, mosaic-style designs, and decorative artworks. Through these activities, learners develop patience, spatial reasoning, precision, and artistic expression. The course concludes with a final showcase where students present their 3D lantern and modular creations, demonstrating both their technical skills and creative growth.
