Digital Transformation in Physical Education: The Application of Intelligent Technology in Enhancing the Effectiveness of Sports Teaching

Abstract

With the deep development of digital transformation, intelligent technology has become a key force in promoting the innovation and development of physical education. This study aims to explore the application of intelligent technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and big data analytics in physical education, as well as how these technologies optimize teaching methods, improve learning efficiency, and stimulate student interest. Through literature review and questionnaire survey, this paper systematically assesses the current application and challenges of intelligent technology in sports teaching. Furthermore, using qualitative and quantitative research methods, the teaching effects of utilizing intelligent technology versus traditional teaching methods in different educational environments were collected and analyzed. The study finds that the integration of intelligent technology significantly enhances the interactivity and personalization of sports teaching, helps to increase student motivation and participation, and promotes the improvement of learning outcomes. However, there are challenges such as resource limitations, teacher training, and student adaptability in the process of implementing technology. The paper concludes with strategies and suggestions for these challenges, aiming to provide reference and guidance for the digital transformation of future physical education.
