Physical Education and Sport in the Era of Information Technology

Abstract

The article raises the issue of the introduction of information technology in the field of sports and physical education, as well as discusses new sports that arose in the information age. Information technology is being introduced into modern sports in a number of areas. One of the directions is the development of information technologies that provide the training process and the improvement of sports equipment, especially in hightech sports. Information technologies are also used in the processes of monitoring and managing the physical health of athletes and their psychological preparation for competitions. The second direction of the introduction of information technology in modern sports is the improvement of the technical and technological base of sports competitions, from equipping sports grounds and facilities to information and control systems for recording sports achievements. A separate area of sports informatization is the development of e-sports, based on modeling sports competitions using computer programs. This direction has positive aspects related to maintaining the spirit of sports competition, but also dubious moments related to the transformation of sports from a free game of physical and intellectual human forces into a kind of imitation of sports. E-sports carries the danger of turning a sports event into a kind of dehumanized competition between machines and computer program manufacturers. The active expansion of information technology into professional sports and physical education requires a separate philosophical reflection due to the fact that technical improvements pose a real threat to the significant dehumanization of modern sports and the distortion of its essence as a competition of individuals. Adherents of sports informatization seek to minimize the potential negative aspects of its informatization and actively promote e-sports competitions. Defenders of traditional sports, on the contrary, advocate restricting the informatization of sports and for decoupling the competition of machines from the competition of people in principle. An important problem of the informatization of sports and physical education is the social environment and the political system within which it is implemented. Globalization in a market economy imposes specific features of commercialization on the development of information technology. Highly informatized sport is turning into a highly profitable sector of a market economy. And this poses a problem of priority goals for the development of sports. The authors emphasize that the informatization of modern sports is generally a positive and irreversible process that requires competent political management and legal regulation.

BeFind: Start-Up Sports Training Untuk Meningkatkan Industri Olahraga Berbasis Teknologi Digital

“…Teknologi informasi salah satu arahnya adalah memberikan proses pelatihan dan peningkatan peralatan olahraga, khususnya olahraga berteknologi tinggi. Teknologi informasi juga digunakan dalam proses pemantauan dan pengelolaan kesehatan fisik atlet dan persiapan psikologis untuk menghadapi kompetisi (Gabibov et al, 2020;Jariono et al, 2020).

Development of Pencak Silat Learning Media in the Form of Pocket Books for Junior High Schools

“…In physical education students are required to be able to master a competency standard that has been compiled in the physical education subject curriculum.

Feasibility of audio-visual teaching materials to support tennis learning

“…In terms of the physical education learning process, the National Association of Sports and Physical Education (Baghurst et al, 2015) recommends (1) the application of technology in physical education to help students learn the stages of movement well, (2) the technological approach is a response to changes in the learning paradigm to make students the center learning and the teacher as a facilitator. Then according to (Gabibov et al, 2020) in his research, the use of computer technology in teaching physical education can increase students' interest and motivation in exercising compared to teaching physical education using traditional methods, while (Kioumourtzoglou et al, 2022) the use of multimedia systems provides convenience in understanding and getting the best results in learning techniques and tactics in improving physical education learning outcomes. By utilizing technological devices, the visualization of teaching materials will be more attractive because they contain multimedia content (text, graphics, images, animation, sound and video).…”
