AI Empowers School Physical Education: Development Opportunities, Practical Challenges, and Coping Strategie
Abstract
With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technology, its application in the field of education has significantly promoted educational development. As a crucial component of the education system, physical education must also keep pace with the times to meet the demands of social progress by actively adopting and leveraging AI technologies. Through the use of literature review and logical analysis, this study aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of the developmental opportunities and challenges that AI technology brings to physical education and training, including immature technological applications, potential data quality issues, the transformation of teachers' roles and educational objectives under the trend of intelligentization, as well as personal data security risks and ethical concerns. On this basis, practical implementation strategies are proposed to provide reference and guidance for the future development of physical education.
