  3. The Attitudes of PE and Sport Students Toward ICTs Basic ICT Information: New technologies used in every field of education 2. Computers help students overcome disadvantages 3. Computers provide fast and permanent learning using sound & animation 4. The Internet provides access to and sharing of information

  4. The Attitudes of PE and Sport Students Toward ICTs Global research findings: Incorporating ICTs in education has become important to developed and developing countries (Li, Kirkup, 2007) Internet connections in schools: 40% in 2005 (World Bank) 68% in 2006 (SPO, 2008) Integration of technology into the school curriculum is complex and challenging (Cooper, 1998)

  5. The Attitudes of PE and Sport Students Toward ICTs Global research findings: Successful integration of computers into schools depends on teachers’ and students’ attitudes toward ICTs Other factors: Knowledge level of teachers about ICTs Demographics – age, gender, years of teaching experience Teachers’ experience with ICTs

  6. The Attitudes of PE and Sport Students Toward ICTs Factors guiding research study: 1. The number of global studies on attitudes of physical education and sports teachers toward ICTs is limited 2. ICTs are becoming more important in PE and sport science 3. ICTs are an integral part of PE curriculum and the daily work of teachers, coaches, and sport managers

  7. The Attitudes of PE and Sport Students Toward ICTs Study research questions: What are the attitudes of PE, sports students, and pre-teachers? Is there a relationship between the attitudes and the variables of age, gender, departments, computer familiarity, instruction, and frequency of computer use and computer ownership?

  8. The Attitudes of PE and Sport Students Toward ICTs Study Findings: 1. ICTs are increasingly important in PE and sport science 2. ICTs are an integral part of PE curriculum 3. ICTs are important in the daily work of teachers, coaches, and sport managers

  9. The Attitudes of PE and Sport Students Toward ICTs Study Conclusions: 1. Physical education and sport students have mainly positive attitudes toward computers 2. Age does not have a significant affect on attitudes, but gender does 3. Males believe more strongly computers will change their way of learning 4.Computer experience in years makes use easier & learning better

  10. The Attitudes of PE and Sport Students Toward ICTs • Study Conclusions: • 5. Students who received computer instruction: • Feel more comfortable using computers • Feel less stress • Believe that the computer is a valuable learning tool and it can improve thinking & conceptual skills • Further studies are needed in the same area using different samples so that more valid and reliable conclusions may be drawn
