The Value Implication and Path Exploration of the Collaborative Cultivation of College Physical Education and Mental Health Education

As an effective means of promoting students’ mental health development, physical education has made its deep integration with mental health education an important direction for educational reform and development in the new era. From the perspective of the collaborative cultivation between physical education and mental health education in colleges and universities, this paper explores the value of their synergy and analyzes existing shortcomings in policies, resource allocation, teaching methods, and evaluation systems. In response to these practical issues, the study proposes a series of optimization paths, ranging from top-level design and resource allocation to teaching innovation and the construction of evaluation systems, in order to fully leverage the effectiveness of collaborative education.
