Requirements for Digital Transformation in Physical Education Curricula According to Quality Standards

Abstract

ABSTRACT

Educational curricula have undergone significant transformations due to rapid technological advancements, making digital transformation a central element in developing education according to modern quality standards. This study aims to analyze the digital transformation requirements in physical education curricula in line with contemporary educational quality standards. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach, and data were collected using a questionnaire assessing the readiness of digital curricula from a sample of 100 faculty members, The results revealed that digital infrastructure is available at an above-average level but is insufficient to fully support digital transformation. Digital content showed a clear gap between curriculum objectives and available materials, focusing primarily on theoretical aspects with limited integration of practical activities. Faculty members’ digital competencies were moderately advanced, while significant challenges were identified, including insufficient devices and software, weak infrastructure, limited continuous training, and unclear standards for digital transformation. A strong positive correlation was observed between digital competencies and digital teaching practices, Based on these findings, the study recommends developing digital infrastructure, enhancing digital content, improving faculty digital competencies through continuous training programs, promoting digital teaching practices These recommendations aim to improve curriculum readiness, support interactive learning, and enhance educational outcomes in physical education.
