Biotechnological Integration in Dance Education: The Impact of Ethno-Cultural Heritage on Digital Teaching Models for Life and Health

Abstract

This study explores the interplay between ethno-cultural heritage in dance and modern digital teaching methods, particularly focusing on the enhancement of life and health literacy through biotechnological innovations. Initially, the paper examines how connections between national dance forms and health-oriented lifestyles can revitalize and perpetuate national cultures, supporting their transmission through optimized digital education models. We further develop and evaluate a digitally enhanced teaching model for folk dance, employing experimental methods to assess its effectiveness. This optimized model leverages digital technologies to deepen students’ understanding of ethnic dance and its cultural significance while simultaneously improving their health literacy and dance proficiency. Findings indicate that the digital approach not only elevates students' engagement with their cultural heritage but also significantly enhances their understanding of the holistic benefits of dance on life and health. The study demonstrates the necessity of continuing to refine digital teaching strategies to sustain the lively inheritance of dance culture and promote the growth of ethnic traditions through biotechnologically supported educational practices. These results underline the potential for commercial biotechnology to facilitate cultural education in ways that enhance both health and cultural understanding.
