Implementation of the Physica Education Curriculum and Physical Literacy of the College Students in China

With the rapid economic development and improved living standards in China, health and physical activity have gained increasing importance. Physical Education (PE) courses, as a vital component of higher education, play a crucial role in cultivating well-rounded talents with robust physical health. However, the current implementation of PE curricula faces numerous challenges, including inadequate university emphasis, imperfect facilities, weak faculty strength, monotonous teaching content, and outdated teaching methods, resulting in unsatisfactory physical literacy outcomes among college students. Meanwhile, factors such as changing lifestyles, academic and employment pressures, and misconceptions about sports further hinder the improvement of physical literacy. This study aims to explore the relationship between PE curriculum implementation and physical literacy cultivation among college students, propose targeted improvement suggestions based on assessments and analyses of the current status, and delve into the cultivation mechanisms and development patterns to optimize PE courses and enhance college students' physical literacy. Theoretically, this research will enrich the theoretical framework of physical education; practically, it will promote the all-round development of college students, elevate their overall quality and competitiveness, and contribute to China's modernization drive.

Adaptation Perspective Approach in the Implementation of the Curriculum of Physical Education Subjects among Teachers in Schools

This qualitative study aims to describe and understand the implementation of Physical Education curriculum among teachers in schools. The focus of the study is on the actual processes that take place in the practice of teaching and learning in the classroom and outside the classroom that involve the phases of planning, delivery and evaluation. As formulated by Marsh and Willis (2007), research on the implementation of a curriculum can be done using three approaches, namely fidelity in implementation or fidelity of implementation, adaptation and enactment. Because the activities contained in Physical Education are complex and dynamic, the adaptation perspective is more appropriate to study the implementation of this curriculum in schools as well as describe the role played by teachers in implementing the curriculum to meet the planned, and factors influencing teachers. in adapting to the curriculum. The study participants consisted of four teachers who taught in two schools around the city of Tawau, Sabah. They are selected based on educational or training background and teaching experience. Data were collected through observation methods on the teaching and learning of the teachers. Methods of interviews with teachers, and analysis of relevant curriculum documents. During the study, the study participants conducted teaching and learning that touched on the pillars of Physical Education learning, namely fitness, skills and sports. The validity and reliability of the findings are enhanced by using triangulation strategies, long -term observations, member reviews, stating researcher biases and audit trails. This study found that the main factors that influence teachers in making adaptations to meet the goals and objectives of the curriculum are infrastructure facilities and equipment. The study also found that the space to adapt the curriculum was very large because of the status of the curriculum which was not examined. This is also what has influenced the lazy attitude of Physical Education teachers in carrying out their duties as curriculum executors, that is, teachers on the outside (in the teaching plan book) seem to implement teaching and learning according to what is set out in the curriculum document, but actually do not do what is noted. or planned in a Physical Education class. In other words, the formal or written curriculum is different from the implemented curriculum and the curriculum experienced by the students. This difference gap is dependent on the factors of teachers ’attitudes, interests and conceptions about the importance of Physical Education and their role in relation to the matter. The findings also show that this curriculum can be implemented effectively even if taught by teachers who are not trained in the subject, but are interested and responsible for their role as curriculum implementers in schools. The findings of this study carry the implication that Physical Education curriculum planning should take into account the unique features of this curriculum by emphasizing the appropriate adaptation for example when faced with the constraints of facilities and equipment. In addition, the interests of the teacher, and the interests of the students need to be taken into account. This is because, only in this way will the pure goal of this curriculum be achieved, which is to help students become fit through the learning of physical activities and fitness practices.

Opinions of the Top Managers of the Ministry of National Education on the Implementation of Physical Education Policies in Schools

"World Physical Education Summit" was held in Berlin in 1999. In the summit, participants from more than 80 countries have determined the policies and reforms for the common solution of all problems related to physical education teaching. At the end of the Berlin Summit, the policies and reforms related to physical education have reconsidered and regulated in many countries. As it is well known, the firstly responsible agency in teaching physical education policies in Turkey is the Ministry of National Education (MEB). Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to reveal the views of the top level managers of the MEB. In this study, phenomenology design which is one of the qualitative research methods has been used. The study group of the research consists of 11 senior managers working in the Ministry of National Education. The data have been analyzed using the semi-structured interview technique and content analysis method. According to the findings of the research, MEB senior managers have listed the components of a quality physical education program as teachers, school administrators, equipment and physical conditions (facility, hall, etc.). They have stated that the biggest obstacles for the physical education curriculum to reach the desired goals are the inadequacy of tools and equipment in schools, the unsuitability of physical conditions, and the fact that the same types of schools do not have the physical conditions at similar standard. They considered the goals and strategies in the development and implementation of physical education curriculum as physical and academic collaborations.

Physical Education and Its Importance to Physical Activity, Vegetable Consumption and Thriving in High School Students in Norway.

Earlier research indicates that physical education (PE) in school is associated with positive outcomes (e.g., healthy lifestyle, psychological well-being, and academic performance). Research assessing associations with resilience and thriving indicators, such as the 5Cs of Positive Youth Development (PYD; competence, confidence, character, caring, and connection) is limited and more so in the Norwegian context. The aim of the present study was to investigate associations between PE grade (reflecting students’ effort in theoretical and practical aspects of the subject) and the 5Cs as well as healthy behaviors (physical activity (PA), fruit and vegetable consumption), using cross-sectional data collected from 220 high school students in Norway (Mage = 17.30 years old, SD = 1.12; 52% males). Results from structural equation modelling indicated positive associations between PE grade and four of the 5Cs (competence, confidence, caring, and connection; standardized coefficient: 0.22–0.60, p < 0.05) while in logistic regressions, a unit increase in PE grade was associated with higher likelihood of engaging in PA and vegetable consumption (OR = 1.94; 95% CI = 1.18–3.18 and OR = 1.68; 95% CI = 1.08–2.63, respectively). These significant findings suggest the need for policies and programs that can support effective planning and implementation of PE curriculum. However, further research is needed to probe into the role of PE on youth health and development with representative samples and longitudinal designs.

Relationship of Physical Education Curriculum Implementation and Mathematics Achievement in Chinese Youth

ABSTRACTPurpose: Previous studies indicated a positive association between physical education (PE) and mathematics achievement (MA). This study explored how PE curriculum implementation relates to MA using data from the China National Assessment of Education Quality (CNAEQ) in 2015, including Mathematics (CNAEQ-MA 2015) as well as Physical Education & Health (CNAEQ-PEH 2015). Method: This study included 22,619 students (48.7% girls) age 13.96 ± 0.64 yr. from the national sample of Grade 8 students from CNAEQ. During 2015, MA and cardiorespiratory fitness (CF) were assessed. PE curriculum implementation, personal hygiene, eating habits, PE interest, mathematics interest, and self-confidence were collected via a self-report student survey. Personal hygiene and eating habits were combined to create the latent variable, healthy lifestyle (HL). Structural equation modeling was applied to examine the associations. Socioeconomic status, school location, Body Mass Index (BMI), and sex were all controlled. Results: PE curriculum implementation had an indirect, positive association with MA through CF, HL-mathematics interest, and HL-mathematics self-confidence. Together, the model explained 27.8% of the variance in MA. Conclusion: PE curriculum implementation may benefit mathematics education, and this link is mainly through HL, CF, mathematics interest, and self-confidence.

Associations Among Physical Education, Activity-Related Healthy Lifestyle Practices, and Cardiorespiratory Fitness of Chinese Youth

ABSTRACTPurpose: Physical education (PE) in school provides opportunities for physical activity (PA) engagement and reportedly results in improved health-related fitness. This study explored the underlying correlations between PE and activity-related healthy lifestyle practices with current level of cardiorespiratory fitness. Methods: A total of 13,138 students age 14 (boys = 7,094, 54.0%) in Grade 8 from the China National Assessment of Educational Quality - Physical Education & Health 2015 were included in this study. Two independent structural equation modeling (SEM) analyses were conducted to obtained sex-specific results. Data included the results of the 15-m progressive aerobic cardiovascular endurance run (PACER) and questionnaire data regarding PE curriculum implementation, learning and practice, perceived support from PE teachers, PE facilities, PE equipment, activity-related healthy lifestyle practices, habitual physical fitness, appropriate method of physical fitness, and breakfast eating habits. Structural equation modeling was applied to examine the associations between variables, controlling for socioeconomic status, the location of schools, and Body Mass Index. Results: There was a statistically significant relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and activity-related healthy lifestyle practices, which was somewhat positively impacted by skill learning and practice and perceived support from PE teachers. Together, the boy’s model explained 21.8% of the variance in cardiorespiratory fitness, whereas the girl’s model explained 15.9%. Conclusions: A well-organized PE program is related to students’ activity-related healthy lifestyle practices, and consequently provides an improvement to cardiorespiratory fitness.
