Exploration on innovative teaching and information technology integration in college physical education

Abstract

Due to the changes of the environment and policy of higher education, the college-level Physical Education (PE) in Taiwan is now facing the bottleneck of drastic transformation. In order to address the dilemma and achieve educational excellence, the education community has been developing innovative teaching as an important solution. The integration of information technology in teaching has not only become a common sight at educational premises but also offered an important tool for innovative teaching. The integration of information technology in the development of Physical Education courses, however, has often been hampered by the nature of the sports discipline and competence of PE instructors. This study explored innovative teaching and integration of information technology based on the nature of PE courses in hope of offering a fresh perspective in the development of college PE courses.
