The Value of Deep Integration between Traditional Chinese Ethnic Sports Culture and Curriculum Ideology and Politics.
Cultural Value.
Continuing the roots of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture enhances the cultural confidence of the Chinese nation. Universities are important platforms for cultural dissemination and construction, bearing the special mission of inheriting civilization, innovating knowledge, and promoting traditional culture. Traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture courses under the perspective of curriculum ideology and politics are both a channel and a responsibility in the overall curriculum ideology and politics. To root and soul-building, we must root traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture in curriculum ideology and politics, forging the soul of traditional Chinese ethnic sports spirit culture. The deeply rooted traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture curriculum ideology and politics are of great significance in guiding students to understand cultural confidence. From the perspective of course objectives, the curriculum of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture under curriculum ideology and politics is oriented towards promoting students' comprehensive development, aiming to enhance their physical fitness, cultivate their character, inherit their culture, and promote their spirit. Under the value cognition system of emphasizing both virtue and skill, this educational goal with a unique humanistic pursuit is a new requirement for talent cultivation in the new era. [3]Helping students deeply understand the essence of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture is a prerequisite for enhancing cultural confidence. From the perspective of curriculum content, traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture education is part of China's socialist cultural education, and an indispensable part of China's cultural construction. The profound traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture and the distinctly different styles of physical activities from Western sports curriculum content form a sharp contrast. The unique Eastern physical activity methods and philosophical thoughts are more in line with the implementation of the national Healthy China and national fitness strategies, supplementing the diverse needs of sports talents and providing a sense of belonging to national sports culture. From the perspective of curriculum structure, the curriculum ideology and politics
1883
structure of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture breaks the traditional fixed curriculum system with a diversified flexible structure, constructs school-based characteristic courses relying on national local resource advantages, carries out curriculum ideology and politics construction guided by cultural confidence, and takes traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture as the starting point to enhance the educational effect of the curriculum. The soul-building of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture ideology and politics courses is an educational strategy to strengthen cultural confidence and realize the talent training for national rejuvenation, as well as a thought power to continue the root and soul of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture.
Spiritual Value.
Traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture curriculum ideology and politics shoulder the mission of soul-building and physical education, and are also the "jointing and silking period" for cultivating students' national feelings and consciously practicing them. In June 2020, the Ministry of Education issued the "Guidelines for the Construction of Ideological and Political Education in Higher Education Institutions," which proposed that "physical education courses should establish the education concept of prioritizing health, pay attention to patriotism education and traditional culture education, cultivate students' perseverance and struggle, and stimulate students' sense of responsibility to improve the physical fitness of the whole nation." General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that ideological and political theory courses are key courses for implementing the fundamental task of moral education. The youth stage is the "jointing and silking period" of life and requires careful guidance and cultivation. From the guidelines and General Secretary Xi Jinping's speeches, we can deeply understand the urgency of the country for college student ideological education and the cultivation of national feelings. National spirit is the "soul" of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture, and the national spirit contained in national sports, such as "self-improvement, strength, and righteousness," is the vitality of the Chinese nation's continuous vitality. Firstly, the spiritual characteristics of national sports are injected into the curriculum ideology and politics construction of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture, which not only shapes students' values but also cultivates their national
1884
feelings and implements the fundamental task of moral education. Secondly, the original environment in which traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture survives cultivates a fertile soil for the cultivation of national feelings. In the teaching of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture curriculum ideology and politics, the integration of physical practice and theoretical learning silently practices the education of national feelings. Physical practice represents ethnic memory, and martial arts culture rooted in traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture embodies the national spirit of "strengthening the nation and revitalizing China", ice and snow sports deeply rooted in the Chinese nation contain the value pursuit and deep wisdom of the Chinese nation. The interpretation of Chinese sports spirit by the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics champions Xu Mengtao and Gu Ailing enhances national pride. The internalization of the spirit of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture curriculum ideology and politics builds the ideal and feelings of "the rise and fall of the world" and "every individual is responsible for the affairs of the country" in students' education.
Social Value.
Schools are the main battlefield for disseminating spiritual civilization and upholding innovation. They are also the backbone force for rallying national strength and wisdom. The curriculum ideology and politics of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture "root-building and soul-casting" stand at the height of curriculum ideology and politics, making good use of the roots of national sports culture to guide students to grasp the national value goals, understand the social value orientation, and abide by personal value criteria. It is of great significance for nurturing and practicing socialist core values, consolidating and concentrating efforts, and realizing the unity and progress of China with important implications. Firstly, the curriculum ideology and politics of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture "root-building and soul-casting" is both the inheritance and promotion of excellent traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture, as well as an important measure to practice socialist core values. The educational guidance, cultural influence, and physical practice of the curriculum are a process for students to vividly and deeply understand the essence of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture, and also a practical path for internalizing students' spiritual
1885
pursuits and externalizing their conscious actions. The heroic spirit of national sports, such as "challenging conquest, vigorous wisdom, and daring to strive," and the patriotism spirit of "guarding the family and the country, the rise and fall of the world, every man has his own responsibility" are the "root" and "soul" of the curriculum ideology and politics of national sports. It is also an important cornerstone for nurturing college students' socialist core values of "soul gathering and strong foundation." Secondly, the curriculum ideology and politics of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture "root-building and soul-casting" is an inherent driving force for consolidating Chinese strength and realizing Chinese wisdom. The main force of China is talent training. The traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture curriculum integrates compulsory courses, general courses, professional courses, elective courses, etc., combining classroom teaching with extracurricular activities, cultural influence with thematic lectures, allowing the interpretation of the ideas and value inheritance of traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture to subtly immerse into students' knowledge fields and thinking spaces, and gather wisdom through ideological guidance. Only by reaching a cultural consensus can we gather the majestic power to realize Chinese wisdom without obstacles.
Conclusion.
The Chinese nation has continued to thrive and pass on its spirit, which is largely due to its consistent spiritual pursuits, spiritual characteristics, and spiritual context. Against the backdrop of the great changes unseen in a century, in order to stand firm on the world stage, it is necessary to lay a solid foundation for excellent traditional Chinese culture. Traditional Chinese ethnic sports culture, as an important part of excellent traditional culture, has important significance in carrying out ideological and political education. The multi-level, multi-category, and multi-form presentation of the curriculum presents a wide-ranging and diverse path, containing rich ideological and political elements. Accurately extracting the ideological and political elements of national sports courses is of great value for universities to cultivate
1886
cultural confidence, self-improvement, enhance national feelings, and realize socialist core values.
