The Synergetic Mechanism of Gamification and Emotional Education in the College of Physical Education

Abstract

Under the impetus of the “Five-Education Integration” (moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor education) and the “Healthy China” strategy, physical education in higher education institutions is gradually transcending the singular focus on traditional skill training and evolving toward a comprehensive educational model that emphasizes “holistic physical and mental development.” Consequently, the synergistic mechanism of gamification and emotional education has become a crucial pathway to enhance the effectiveness of physical education and cultivate students’ comprehensive qualities. This paper explores the theoretical foundations, practical strategies, and effect evaluation of the synergy between gamification and emotional education in college physical education, aiming to provide new insights and methods. Through literature review and case analysis, the study thoroughly examines the necessity and feasibility of this synergy and proposes specific implementation strategies. The results demonstrate that the synergistic mechanism significantly improves students’ interest in sports, participation levels, and emotional intelligence, thereby promoting their holistic development. =
