The acquired enlightenment is as follows: for the construction of the physical education subject in China, we should select a more flexible subject setup mode, add “cross subjects”, and make the subject system more open; we should standardize our subject setup procedure, while in subject designation we should concurrently consider designation internationalization and the designation custom of our own nation; the physical education subject and education subject should be set up in parallel into subject branches, so as to boost further development of subject construction.
