Abstract

This paper analyzed and discussed the teaching reform path of the national traditional sports course in China University of Geosciences (Wuhan) by questionnaires, expert interviews and mathematical statistics. It’s worth pointing out that students who took the course had prominent eye health problems, and poor physical exercise effect. Furthermore, they mainly faced the following problems when they carried out physical exercise: lack of knowledge pertaining to scientific exercise, emergency treatment of injury as well as exercise prescription. In this research, the teaching reform plan of “Combination of Sports and Medicine” is mainly manifested as follows: developing targeted teaching and treatment methods, spreading the principle of "treating before disease", teaching scientific ways of exercise, as well as teaching rehabilitation, health care knowledge, and exercise prescriptions, etc. The results indicate that this teaching reform plays a significant role in improving students' physical exercise effect, bolstering their interest in exercise, developing good living habits and so on. In addition, it attaches great importance to the integration of sports knowledge and skills and medical knowledge in college students, and serves as an approach to implementing the basic national policy of "Healthy China".
