Background: Teaching evaluation of university badminton elective courses remains limited in terms of systematization, quantification, and feasibility, particularly given their skill-oriented nature and the challenges of handling fuzzy information.Methods: This study developed and applied an evaluation framework integrating the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) with Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation (FCE). The framework included four dimensions—teaching resources, teaching process, student participation, and skill development—with weights determined through expert consultation. Skill development received the highest weight (35.22%). A total of 175 valid student questionnaires were analyzed using AHP-derived weights and the FCE method.Results: Findings indicated that the overall evaluation of the sampled courses reached a “good” level. Among the dimensions, skill development was identified as the most influential factor, while teaching resources served as a critical foundation.Conclusions: The AHP-FCE framework offers a reliable quantitative tool for assessing the teaching quality of badminton elective courses. It underscores the central role of skill development and supports the advancement of evaluation methods toward greater scientific rigor and precision in physical education.
