abstract
- This study examines the integration of technology in Physical Education (PE) pedagogy and the potential benefits of applications (apps) to enhance teaching and learning experiences. Previous research has shown that PE teachers feel ill-equipped to incorporate technology effectively into their classes. This study aims to address this gap by exploring the perceptions of PE teachers regarding the use of apps in their classes. The research methodology involves a mixed methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative research methods. Twenty-six teachers in the Athletics and Sports Department of Tecnologico de Monterrey, Monterrey campus, were individually interviewed using a structured questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and qualitative analysis techniques. The findings contribute to understanding the integration of digital technology and teaching methods in PE, providing insights into the potential benefits of using PE pedagogical apps. The study also highlights the need for further contextual research on this topic in PE education. © 2023 IEEE.
