On February 25, 2021, the National Poverty Alleviation Commendation Conference solemnly announced to the world that poverty alleviation has achieved comprehensive victory. Rural revitalization strategy is the new era to accelerate rural development, promote the integration of urban and rural development of the general starting point, the proposal of rural revitalization for the development of rural sports to create favorable conditions, but also provides an important opportunity for the vigorous development of rural campus football. Under the guarantee of the national government, the poverty alleviation in ethnic minority areas has achieved initial results, but the geographical location of ethnic minority areas is remote, the distribution of personnel is relatively scattered, the educational environment is backward, and the teachers are insufficient, and many key problems still need to be "tailored". Campus football is the only way for the development of school sports in minority areas and a strong support for the high-quality development of school sports in rural areas.

Therefore, in combination with the national policy background of rural revitalization, this study investigates the difficulties and problems in the development of campus football in border minority areas by means of literature, questionnaire and field investigation, in order to analyze the predicament of campus football in minority areas, and aims to provide ideas for better development of campus football in minority areas.

The Problem of Science Education in Minority Areas—Based on a Study in Gansu Province of China

After 60 years of development, minority education not only has made great achievements in China, but also faces many problems. Among them is the problem of science education. The students learning in high school in the basic education in minority areas have faced particular difficulties in learning science. The teaching quality is not high, students generally fear the sciences and select the arts, and there is a structural imbalance in minority college student choices of majors. The proportion of minority college students in the arts and humanities far exceeds the proportion choosing the sciences. The minority science education problem has a great impact on both the economic and social development of minority areas and on improving the quality of minority education. In order to improve science education in minorities of China, this article proposes several suggestions: (1) Implement an open and integrated minority education system; (2) adjust the discipline structure at colleges serving ethnic minorities; and (3) improve basic science education in minority areas.

The Basis for Integrating Local Knowledge into the School Curriculum for Tibetans in Southern Gansu

The school curriculum in Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture (Gannan) does not adequately consider the interests and needs of Tibetan students or the life options of those who fail to be chosen for a path to “legitimization.” Such a curriculum is not only incompatible with what should be the objectives and requirements for transmitting ethnic heritage through school education in minority areas, but is also a primary reason for the lack of motivation and learning difficulties among Tibetan students in Gannan. Tibetan local knowledge in Gannan originates in the natural, cultural, social, and environmental awareness and understanding of the Gannan Tibetans themselves. It effectively resolves the problems faced by Gannan Tibetans in terms of the natural and human environment, and has irreplaceable value and significance to the survival and development of the Tibetan people in Gannan. Integrating local knowledge, in an appropriate format, into the school curriculum is key to the success of Tibetan in-school education in Gannan.
