ABSTRACT

This study explores the enhancement of aesthetic education value in aerobics courses, addressing issues such as single teaching methods, insufficient integration of aesthetic education and physical education, lack of targeted course design, insufficient cultivation of aesthetic innovation abilities, and the absence of aesthetic education in the evaluation system. The study proposes optimization measures by combining aesthetics with the core skills of aerobics, strengthening the cultivation of aesthetic awareness and creative abilities, and enhancing students' aesthetic literacy while learning skills. The course content is enriched with aesthetic appreciation and cultural interpretation, encouraging students to design movements and performances independently, thus fostering innovation. The teaching goal system of aerobics has been restructured, clarifying multidimensional development goals such as skills, aesthetic perception, and team spirit. Innovative teaching methods, such as situational teaching and group cooperative learning, have strengthened the deep integration of aesthetic education and physical education. In addition, a comprehensive evaluation system is constructed, assessing students' skill levels, aesthetic literacy, and innovation abilities to ensure the effective implementation of aesthetic education in the aerobics course, promoting the collaborative development of aesthetic education and physical education.
