Research on Optimization Design of Physical Education Curriculum Structure Based on Genetic Algorithm

Abstract Factors such as class, class time, teachers, courses, and classrooms influence the optimization of the physical education course structure, making it challenging for the traditional physical education course structure to adapt to the current standards. For this reason, the article uses a genetic algorithm to optimize the structure of the physical education course. Class time, teachers, classrooms, courses, and classes are selected as the variables of the physical education course structure optimization model, and according to the actual situation of physical education course structure in colleges and universities, hard and soft rules for course optimization are formulated, and the construction of the optimization model of physical education course structure is completed based on the principles of physical education course structure optimization. We optimize the traditional genetic algorithm using the simulated annealing algorithm, which addresses the local optimal solution issue in the sports course structure optimization model. Examine the parameters of the improved genetic algorithm, and use the algorithm from this paper to conduct a case study on optimizing the structure of physical education courses. The fitness function value of this algorithm is higher than that of the traditional genetic algorithm from both the students’ and teachers’ points of view. The improved genetic algorithm can get rid of the issue of course structures that don’t work well with each other, which makes the best use of physical education course resources.

Online and offline mixed teaching quality assessment method for physical education class based on value assignment method

Abstract The blended teaching mode combines the advantages of online and offline teaching, which can improve the effect of university physical education teaching. The article takes the acquisition path of students’ multidimensional learning behavior data as the entry point, introduces the data preprocessing method after acquiring online learning behavior, and then establishes the online-offline blended teaching quality evaluation index system for physical education classes based on the CIPP model. The subjective and objective weights of the evaluation indexes are solved by using the AHP method and the improved pull-apart grade method, and the comprehensive, integrated assignment method is introduced to weigh the subjective and objective weights in order to obtain the comprehensive weights. Based on the weights of the indicators obtained by AHP-ISD, a teaching quality assessment model for physical education courses was established by combining the SVM model, and the SMO algorithm was selected to optimize the training of the model. To assess the application effectiveness of the model, a comprehensive assessment of its teaching quality was carried out, and the teaching effect of the blended teaching mode was also explored. The weight of the learning outcome evaluation index is 0.438 at most, the accuracy of the SMO algorithm training model is up to 99.99%, and the range of error scores between the model evaluation value and the actual value is between [0.01,0.03] points. The teaching quality assessment model based on the assignment method can obtain more accurate teaching quality assessment results for physical education courses and provide a new direction for optimizing the hybrid teaching assessment method of physical education courses.

A study of stratified optimization of college physical education course effects under the perspective of cluster analysis

Abstract Due to the different physical fitness of college students, they have different acceptance abilities for college physical education courses, so a unified teaching method cannot be applied among many students. The article focuses on the student stratification model based on learning characteristics and takes the university physical education course as an example to design a university physical education teaching stratification method based on the improved K-means clustering algorithm with initialization denoising and center-of-mass optimization. Taking the physical education test data of the 2021~2023 sessions of a university as the research object, K-means clustering analysis was carried out on the 8-item physical fitness test data to realize the stratification of students’ learning situation. The experimental results show that the method of this paper clusters 14619 students into three layers, and the cluster centroid distances of Cluster 1~3 are 20.35, 16.97, and 18.39, respectively. The maximum standardized mutual information values are 6.820, 3.105, and 2.931, respectively, and the results of the stratification are reasonable and easy to interpret, and they can provide effective references for the development of personalized physical education for school students.

Information Technology Integration and Teaching Effectiveness Enhancement Strategies in Public Physical Education Programs

Abstract By integrating a heart rate monitoring module and a step frequency monitoring module, this study aims to use informatization technology to monitor the exercise level of students in public physical education courses and to adjust the teaching methods of public physical education courses based on informatization feedback. A school had 332 students divided into an experimental and control group for comparative experiments. Based on the results of students’ exercise data monitoring by heart rate oximetry module and acceleration sensor, it was found that the exercise density of students in the experimental group (73.3%) was much higher than that of students in the control group (54.4%), which means that the students’ exercise status was better under the informatization teaching mode. During the experimental period, there were significant differences in the average heart rate and MVPA percentage time between the experimental group and the control group students (p<0.05). The results of the physical fitness test showed that the informatization teaching mode significantly improved the student’s performance in body weight, pull-up, and standing long jump events (p<0.05) and significantly improved the student’s performance in lung capacity, sitting and lying forward bends, 50-meter run, and 1000-meter run events (p<0.01).

Analysis and Optimization of the Effectiveness of College Physical Education Courses Based on Fuzzy Cognitive Evaluation

Abstract Cognitive diagnostic theory can provide a comprehensive and detailed objective evaluation of individual macro learning ability, thus providing an effective reference for targeted teaching and learning. In this paper, a fuzzy cognitive diagnostic model is used to evaluate the degree of mastery of a college student on the physical education course, calculate the probability of mastery of each attribute, and statistically analyze the degree of mastery of the attributes of the individual as well as the class as a whole. Then, a learning effect evaluation standard is constructed to evaluate the learning effects of the physical education course for all students. The empirical results show that the mean value of the evaluation of the students’ cognition of physical education in School X is 0.6587, and the average probability of mastery of physical education emotion is 0.6021, both of which have reached the degree of good mastery. The average probability of mastering sports operations was 0.5909, which indicates that university students have an average level of mastery in all sports skills through the physical education program. The outcome is in line with the current situation, which can serve as a reference for teachers to make targeted teaching decisions. The study has both theoretical value and practical significance in promoting the development of wisdom education.

Innovation of Core Literacy Evaluation Model for Physical Education and Health Courses in Colleges and Universities under the Guidance of OBE Theory

Abstract Several scholars have taken an interest in core literacy in physical education since the idea was first put forth, making it a contemporary hotspot in the field of school physical education study and development. The innovative design of the evaluation model of the core literacy of physical education and health courses in colleges and universities, which focuses on building the evaluation index system of the core literacy of physical education and health courses, was realized in this study by using the hierarchical analysis method, guided by the OBE theory. Evaluation indexes were chosen and corrected using the Delphi technique and available research. Hierarchical analysis is used to determine the weight coefficients of the indicators, and a consistency test is carried out. The reliability test is then carried out, and the core literacy self-assessment scale is developed. Ultimately, the scale is put to use in real-world situations and its impact is examined. All of the expert research’s index scores are higher than 4.3, their coefficients of variance are less than 0.2, and their indexes are kept. The index weights are doable, and all of the CR values are less than 0.1. The reliability and validity met the required level, as evidenced by the overall Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, KMO value, and Bartlett’s sphere test significance of 0.953, 0.962, and 0.000, respectively. The comprehensive core literacy scores of the survey respondents had a mean of 83.635 and a standard deviation of 9.842, indicating a high overall core literacy level. There are notable differences in the overall score of the basic literacy dimensions assignment depending on gender, grade level, and specialty. This study aims to assess the OBE theory’s applicability to real-world instruction.

Comparative analysis of the effects of different physical education elective courses on college students’ physical fitness indices

Abstract This paper uses mathematical statistics and one-way ANOVA for the data of each index between groups to conduct comparative experiments on the teaching of elective courses of basketball, aerobics, track and field, and badminton with undergraduate students majoring in physical education at University X. The comparative analyses of changes in students’ physical health index before and after the experiments are an attempt to systematically study the extent of the influence of the elective courses of physical education in general colleges and universities on the physical fitness of college students in order to seek a more scientific and more effective curriculum program. A more scientific and effective curriculum program is being sought. The conclusions are as follows: physical education elective courses have a positive impact on students’ physical fitness and provide different opportunities. Students who chose basketball, aerobics, and badminton elective courses improved their seated forward bending, 800m/1000m, and grip strength qualities to a greater extent with significant differences (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Basketball, aerobics, track and field, and badminton all significantly improve lung capacity for both boys and girls. Basketball had the highest impact on the students’ physical fitness index, followed by aerobics.

Analysis of Influencing Factors on the Quality of Teaching Reform of Physical Education Courses in Colleges and Universities Combined with Entropy Weighted TOPSIS Modeling

Abstract Students’ total core literacy is influenced by the quality of instruction in physical education courses, which also has an impact on the students’ physical quality and complete level. The evaluation index system established in this paper is based on changes in teaching standards in physical education programs at higher learning institutions. A thorough evaluation of reform quality is performed using the TOPSIS method, while index weights are calculated using the entropy weight method. The quality of the physical education class teaching reform was used as an explanatory variable while teaching material, teaching method, and teaching evaluation were used as explanatory factors to create multiple linear regression equations. The evaluation of teaching reform was conducted using both horizontal and vertical methods, utilizing fifteen institutions in the province of S as examples. The factors that had an impact on the reform were examined through regression and correlation analyses. The findings demonstrate that: first, a positive correlation between subject matter, teaching methods, and teaching evaluation is demonstrated at the 1% level; second, the R2 value in the regression analysis increases from 0.457 to 0.638; and third, the quality of instruction reform in university physical education courses will encourage the generation of students’ sports understanding, with a weight value of 0.3674. To truly enhance the quality of its teaching reform and foster students’ understanding of physical education, colleges and universities need to start with the teaching content, teaching methods, and teaching assessment of their physical education courses. This is a good example of how to raise the standard of its instructional overhaul and foster a lifetime interest in sports in kids.

Based on his experiences as a course coordinator and teacher in curricular components, the author makes a brief and concise assessment of the implementation of the curriculum in its first two years. The text is developed from a descriptive perspective, organized into five parts: indication of the context and aspects that influenced the creation of a new curriculum; presentation of the structure that makes up the curriculum; description of the methodological choices used in the development of the curriculum; analysis of the initial impacts of the restructuring and implementation of the course in the first two years; highlighting successes and difficulties in the process. The results indicate that the current curriculum has enabled expanded training for academics considering the analysis of the possibility of effective mobilization of what is studied, in contrast to the professional field. Academics consider the new way of organizing the course to be productive, giving merit to the methodological procedures and actions of teachers who aim to improve their knowledge. The collaborative planning and study experience allowed teachers to qualify their actions and recognize that they need to study permanently. It is evident that, on the one hand, there have been advances in a number of aspects and, on the other, there are important points to evolve, since teachers move and position themselves at different levels, in relation to the planning, development and evaluation of classes by skills.

Personalized Physical Education Teaching Path Planning and Optimization Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning

Abstract Physical education courses have always been an important part of students’ comprehensive quality education, and how to make full use of big data technology to improve the informatisation level of physical education teaching has become an urgent problem to be solved at present. Through an overview of the characteristics of the personalised physical education teaching model based on deep reinforcement learning, the feature types of the collected data are clarified, and a series of data preprocessing operations are taken to remove the interfering information in the data. From the principle of deep reinforcement learning, the deep Q-network algorithm is designed, and the state space, action space, reward function, and selection strategy in the personalised sports teaching path planning model are also defined and designed. Comprehensive simulation experiments and statistical analysis confirm the personalized sports teaching path planning model based on deep reinforcement learning. In contrast, the DQN algorithm can achieve good results in any situation, and can give the most suitable personalised teaching plan according to each student’s problem in order to achieve the purpose of personalised sports teaching path planning and dynamic adjustment. The teaching model in this paper has a significant relationship with the traditional teaching model in terms of physical education learning autonomy, participation in physical education classes, and skill test scores, i.e., the teaching model in this paper has a better optimisation effect than the traditional teaching model.

Innovation of Physical Education and Health Curriculum Teaching Models in Colleges and Universities in the Digital Era and Its Contribution to Students’ Core Literacy

Abstract Physical education and health curricula in colleges and universities are obsolete, and there is an urgent need to innovate teaching models and methods. To achieve innovation in physical education and health teaching, this paper utilizes cutting-edge information technology like motion recognition to construct a physical education and health data monitoring model. Firstly, the positional relationship between coordinate systems is determined, and the established coordinate system is used to describe the orientation and position of human postural joints, and the rotation matrix is used to define the rotation from the global coordinate system to the current orientation of the local coordinate system of bones. A human motion joint skeletal chain model is created that has 21 bones and 21 joints. The joint pose solution method is proposed, and the human kinematic model is constructed by combining robot ortho kinematics and coordinate transformation. A position estimation algorithm combining inertial navigation and a human kinematics model has been designed. After analyzing the performance of the recognition model, analyze the effects of its application on the innovation of college physical education courses. It is found that the model in this paper monitors the heart rate data with an error of only 3 or less, and the accuracy of human movement recognition on the MHealth and PAMAP2 datasets is 97.38% and 96.63%, respectively, and the learning ability is optimal. After one semester of innovative mode teaching and the use of a physical education and health data monitoring model, the mean values of physical education and health knowledge, physical education behavior, physical fitness and health, motor skills, and physical character of the experimental class were 35.77, 25.53, 25.04, 35.73, and 31.56 points higher than those of the control class, respectively. Motivation, skill acquisition, after-school sports, and sports concern were significantly higher in the experimental class, with scores of 5.66, 6.71, 5.61, and 3.65 points higher than the control class. This paper’s innovative teaching mode and model have been effective in improving teaching quality and stimulating students’ sports and health habits.

Research on Informatization Construction and Teaching Reform Path of Physical Education Teaching in Colleges and Universities

Abstract Firstly, the improved OpenPose is used to obtain the skeletal point coordinate data and normalized, and then the human gesture features are extracted according to the spatial geometric relationship of human morphology to improve the differentiation degree of the gesture features on similar actions in the basic sports actions, which is used for the gesture matching of the basic sports actions. On this basis, the DTW posture matching algorithm based on human differentiated posture features is proposed, which realizes the posture matching and carries out the evaluation and result feedback of students’ sports movements. Finally, we construct a sports movement evaluation system based on the aforementioned method, which compares the movement video with the standard movement from the template library and provides feedback on the movement’s evaluation results. The system allows teachers to access the learning situations of numerous students’ movements, while the system provides feedback for movement learners to adjust their movements, thereby facilitating a convenient and informative interaction in sports movement teaching. After seven weeks of experimentation, there is a significant difference between the assessment scores of the experimental group and the control group, and 90% of the students are satisfied with the application of the sports movement assessment teaching system to assist teaching. It proves that the intelligent teaching structure and diversified teaching methods promote students’ learning efficiency and performance, significantly improve students’ motivation to learn physical education courses, and further improve the demand for an information-based teaching environment.

Physical Education courses in Brazil: data consolidation from 1995 to 2020

Resumo O artigo tem como objetivo consolidar dados referentes à formação em Educação Física (EF) no Brasil no período de 1995 a 2020. Para essa análise, foram utilizadas as principais fontes disponíveis sobre esses dados, tanto na literatura científica sobre Educação Física, quanto nas Sinopses Estatísticas da Educação Superior fornecidas pelo Instituto Nacional de Estudos e Pesquisas Educacionais Anísio Teixeira (INEP). Os resultados, indicam discrepância significativa entre os dados das Sinopses Estatísticas com os dados encontrados na literatura disponível, evidenciando problemas metodológicos, em uma parcela considerável dos artigos que tratam dos cursos de EF. Estes artigos omitem fontes, procedimentos e não utilizam filtros adequados na obtenção de dados. Durante o período analisado, houve expansão da formação em Educação Física, especialmente no ano de 2020, quando o número de matrículas em cursos à distância se sobressaiu e a predominância dos cursos de bacharelado, que se tornou maioria a partir de 2019. A criação dos cursos à distância, demanda revisão dos indicadores de crescimento da formação em EF, os quais devem considerar o número de cursos, a modalidade, as matrículas e os concluintes. Apesar do crescimento constante nos indicadores desde o início da elaboração da Sinopse Estatística em 1995, houve uma diminuição no número de cursos e matrículas a partir de 2017, sugerindo um possível saturamento na procura por formação em Educação Física.
