The Effects of an Intervention Programme Using Information Communication and Technology on the Teaching and Learning of Physical Education in Singapore Schools
This study examined the impact of an Information Communication and Technology (ICT) intervention program on teaching and learning in Physical Education (PE). The research involved 47 PE teachers from 47 Singapore schools and 838 students across primary and high schools. Teachers with little or no ICT experience (n = 24) and their students (n = 430) were placed in the intervention group. Data were collected using accelerometers, the Activity Perce…
A self-directed online resource to enhance coach learning
IntroductionPhysical education and sport settings provide dynamic environments conducive to learning values and life skills. However, not every programme that aims to promote healthy youth development has been successful. Such ineffectiveness is often due, in part, to a lack of requisite knowledge and efficacy among coaches. Nonetheless, preliminary research has begun highlighting the potential of online self-directed resources, a contemporary 21…
An Exploratory Study to Test the Psychometric Properties of Character Strengths-Semantic Differential Scale (CS-SDS) Among Singaporean Adults
Character strengths encompass a set of positive traits that can be manifested through thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. To measure the 24 character strengths, the Character Strengths-Semantic Differential Scale (CS-SDS) was used. The aim of the study was to (a) test the factor structure of CS-CDS and (b) test the convergent validity of CS-CDS with life satisfaction and positive affect, and the divergent validity of CS-SDS with negative affect. I…
Trends of physical activity and recreational screen time among Chinese children and adolescents
This research highlights a downward trend in PA and RST compliance amongst Chinese children and adolescents, with variations based on school level, gender, area, and region. Urgent policies and interventions are imperative to promote PA while mitigating excessive RST within these populations
Development and Validation of an Attitude Measure in Open Water Activities
Although individual attitudes play a critical role in understanding risky behaviors during open water activities, an attitude scale for open water activities has not yet been developed in the fields of sports and leisure. Thus, this study developed and validated an attitude scale for open water activities (AS-OWA) to better understand participants' safety perceptions. For the pilot study (n = 226) and the main study (n = 392), we collected data f…
Strategies and methods for teaching values transference from physical education to the classroom and home
Many studies in recent years have shown the effectiveness of Physical Education and Sports (PES) as a vehicle for teaching values and personal development among youth. However, despite research showing values transference is crucial for optimal learning, a gap in the literature remains regarding the strategies and methods underlying values transference beyond the PES context. The purpose of the present study was to identify the strategies and met…
Teachers’ and students’ perceptions of factors influencing the adoption of information and communications technology in physical education in Singapore schools
Although there have been studies on the use of information and communications technology (ICT) as a pedagogical tool to enhance teaching and learning in physical education (PE), more research is warranted to understand perceived barriers and facilitators to usage. The purpose of the present study was to understand key factors that influence the adoption of ICT in PE perceived by teachers and students in Singapore schools. Eleven PE teachers (two …
The efficacy of using mobile applications in changing adolescent girls’ physical activity behaviour during weekends
Smartphones are omnipresent and offer real-time information on the go. Predominantly, adolescent girls have been found to be engaged in levels of physical activity (PA) below the daily recommended guideline of at least 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous intensity, and especially during weekends. Lack of sufficient PA can lead to a risk of contracting non-communicable diseases. The purpose of this exploratory study was to investigate the efficacy …
Singapore teachers’ attitudes towards the use of information and communication technologies in physical education
The purpose of the present study was to examine and compare Singaporean physical education teachers’ attitudes towards information and communication technologies in physical education across different demographic groups that included gender, age, teaching experience, and school level. A total of 422 Singaporean full-time physical education teachers (mean age = 38.47 years, standard deviation = 8.31) completed the Physical Education Teachers’ Subj…
Physical activity patterns and factors that facilitate or hinder exercise among adolescents in an all-boys school
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the level of physical activity (PA) in an all-boys school and, using a mixed method design, to identify factors that facilitate or hinder PA engagement. Participants ( n = 382) completed the Three Day Physical Activity Recall (3DPAR) questionnaire to enable examination of the pattern of their PA and the amount of time spent on sedentary activities. To understand further the motivation behind the…
