The Basic Status, Current Problems, and Improvement Paths of the Curriculum System Construction of Leisure Sports Undergraduate Majors in China’s Provinces—Based on a Practical Survey in Hubei Province
Promoting the construction of curriculum system is not only an important means to unblock the bottleneck in the development of leisure sports major construction, but also a practical demand to achieve the healthy and sustainable development of leisure sports undergraduate major. It is also a response to the practical requirements of national professional construction and adjustment and the needs of the times to promote the high-quality development of sports discipline. Using the methods of literature review, in-depth interviews and other research methods, this paper selected five colleges and universities with leisure sports undergraduate major, including Wuhan Sports University, Hubei University, Wuhan Sports University College of Sports Science and Technology, Hubei University of Economics, and Wuhan University of Commerce, as the survey objects. The research results indicate that the training goals of leisure sports professionals in universities in Hubei Province generally align with the practical needs and development direction of leisure sports undergraduate talent training, and the employment direction is relatively clear. Although the participation is uneven, the curriculum system overall meets the national requirements for the construction of leisure sports undergraduate talent training curriculum system. However, there are still practical problems such as insignificant differences with relevant disciplines, weak matching between talent supply and social demand, virtual integration of “industry university research” training, unclear characteristics of leisure sports majors, and overall insufficient basic carrier construction. Therefore, it is proposed to focus on the development of the leisure industry and highlight the professional characteristics of leisure sports; Strengthen social demand research and enhance the targeted talent cultivation; Innovate the construction of the curriculum system to form unique advantages in the field; Promote diversified integrated training and achieve the integration of industry, academia, and research; Increase the construction of professional platforms and inject impetus into the sustainable development of disciplines, as well as the improvement path of course system construction.
