This tutorial is designed for Health and Physical Education teachers who want to incorporate technology into their lessons, and need some ideas on how and where to start.
Technological advances have an enormous impact on health and physical education.
They can change the way educators teach and students learn, but it is clear that technology is under used in health and physical education curricula. Computers,educational software, productivity tools, as well as video, can enhance learning for many students by providing real-life experiences that can be individualized and be meaningful. Integrating technology into health and physical education curricula helps educators meet several goals of the Sunshine State Standards and of the President's Technological Initiative. At the same time, it improves and supports instruction, individualizes learning and it motivates students. Well-designed courses that integrate technology provide new and challenging learning experiences.
