Abstract

College students widely embrace basketball as a popular sport, and it holds significant value in the physical education curriculum of colleges and universities. China's traditional basketball training is rooted in the professional sports teams operating under the national system. The experience of enjoying sports can be defined as a positive emotional state that reflects the overall sense of participating in physical activity, including feelings of happiness, liking, and enjoyment. Learning satisfaction refers to the attitude or perception of students toward their learning activities. The status quo of PE teachers teaching basketball in colleges and universities in China was found to be problematic because of traditional methods, populated classes, teachers’ assessments, and students’ multiple courses every semester. The study investigated the sports enjoyment and learning satisfaction of college students in basketball courses in China. This study was anchored on the self-determination theory and employed a quantitative comparative correlative design. The results revealed that the college students were generally dissatisfied with their sports enjoyment and learning in basketball courses. Hence, the study proposed a course enhancement program in basketball to improve the exercise performance of college students while playing basketball, to maintain the satisfaction of college students in competitive enjoyment of basketball, to address the dissatisfaction of college students with course content, basketball teachers may use a variety of teaching methods, to improve the learning satisfaction of college students in environmental hygiene in basketball courses, and to maintain the strong relationship between students' enjoyment of sports and their overall satisfaction with their learning experience, despite their low-evaluation.
