ABSTRACT

To streamline physical education policies and guidelines, one must understand the Physical Education teachers’ technology needs. Recognizing technological demands can help physical education teachers keep up with new technology that can improve their teaching. In addition, this can help teachers integrate technology into their teaching and stay current in a tech-driven world. The research aims to determine the technological needs of physical education (PE) teachers in selected sports school in Beijing, China. Quantitative-comparative research was used. Eighty (80) PE teachers at selected Chinese sports schools were assessed for technology needs. The profile was used to alter variables. The researcher created an instrument using parameters from many sources to collect quantitative study data. Results show that PE teachers prioritize skills development. Therefore, to gain confidence and skill in using technology to teach physical education, teachers must be prioritized for training programs.
