Modern Information Technologies in the Process of Physical Education in Universities of Ukraine

Abstract

The relevance of the study is determined by the need to update the methods of teaching physical culture in universities based on information technologies in accordance with the socio-cultural conditions of the present time. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the need to use information technologies in physical education in Ukrainian universities, followed by the development of a conceptual model based on the experience of foreign higher education institutions. The research of the selected problem was conducted in two stages based on systematic and innovative approaches using the method of analysis, synthesis, generalisation, systematisation, and comparison. The paper identified the need to introduce information technologies in the educational process of physical culture in universities based on the research of Ukrainian and foreign authors. The article analysed and compared the practices of using information technologies in physical education classes in universities of European countries, such as Spain, Ireland, Portugal, the Russian Federation, as well as Asian countries, among which are Japan and China. It was found out that the introduction of informatisation tools in the educational process of physical education in Ukrainian universities is accompanied by certain difficulties, and at the same time, the actualisation of the search for solutions to these problems was identified. The main ways of introducing information technologies in physical education classes in leading Ukrainian universities were considered. Based on the experience of Ukrainian and foreign universities, a conceptual model of information technologies usage in the educational process of physical education was developed, which is based on improving individual and collective skills using a universal mobile application and fitness games. The value and prospects of further research lie in creating a universal mobile application and implementing the author's methodology in practice

Implementing smart technologies for teaching Ukrainian language across secondary and higher education: case studies and practical recommendations

“…Learners create presentations on specific topics as individual projects to effectively overcome the fear of public speaking and develop skills in working with text. This includes composing speech outlines, identifying theses and arguments, structuring and selecting information, and formulating conclusions and generalizations (Nesterenko et al, 2023).…”

“…Researcher I. Nesterenko (2023) in his recent review of SMART education highlights its main advantages, including the continuity of the learning process and easy access to educational information, independence from time and place, mobility, and the autonomy of both the educational practitioner and the student. He also notes that students are expected to master four levels: knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values.…”
