Choreography courses are core courses for dance majors in normal universities

as they build students' creative ability and teaching competence. At present

choreography courses in some colleges have problems such as homogenized content and weak integration of regional culture. These issues hinder the full alignment with the distinctive educational orientation of normal majors

which prioritizes pedagogical competence over purely artistic performance. This paper takes local ethnic and folk dance resources as the starting point. It analyzes the core value of integrating such resources into choreography courses

clarifies basic principles for course construction

and proposes practical construction paths from three aspects: teaching content

implementation mode and evaluation system. The study aims to provide references for the reform of choreography courses in normal universities. It also seeks to expand channels for the dynamic inheritance of local ethnic and folk dances

and promote mutual progress between professional teaching and cultural inheritance. Additionally

this paper proposes a preliminary evaluative framework for assessing both creative output and teachability

thereby bridging the gap between choreographic practice and basic education needs.
