Abstract

Physical education (PE) is tactile, practical, and participative, making it more challenging to integrate technology than other academic subjects. This study intends to analyse the challenges faced by physical teachers while using digital technology in PE. This research included physical education teachers (PETs) from nine secondary schools in Selangor, Malaysia. Qualitative research design was applied in this study and the data was collected via semi-structured interviews and analysed using thematic analysis. The technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) framework is used to analyse PETs technology education practises and issues. Results revealed that there were seven themes emerged for the obstacles: i) lack of infrastructure; ii) lack of financial support; iii) lack of training; iv) time and space management; v) perception and attitude towards PE; vi) student-related constrains; and vii) lack of educational resources. These findings can be useful to support education in the 21st century whereby the teachers should get extensive technology training to improve their digital skills, as well as regular and ongoing technology integration training.

Abstract

Technological advances have facilitated the integration of information and communication technology (ICT) into higher music education over the past decade. However, existing literature remains fragmented and lacks an integrated understandingof this field. This study addresses four research questions concerning developmental trends, types of ICT use and their characteristics, advantages, and challenges of ICT integration in higher music education. Based on 40 articles retrieved from EBSCO, Scopus, and Web of Science (WoS), this review analyses ICT use in higher music education. The findings show that the reviewed articles are unevenly distributed geographically, with a substantial proportion originating from China. Quantitative research designs dominated the reviewed articles. Thematic analysis identified four primary categories of ICT use: network-based and distance learning technologies, digital platforms and tools, artificial intelligence (AI)-powered educational technologies, and immersive and sensor-based ICT applications. ICT can enhance teaching quality, student motivation, personalized learning, flexibility, instructional innovation, and interdisciplinary integration, while challenges include limited emotional interaction, technical barriers, unequal resource allocation, privacy concerns, and ethical risks. Drawing on the technology acceptance model (TAM) and technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) framework, this study proposes an integrative framework to guide teachers and institutions in designing pedagogically meaningful, technically feasible, and context-sensitive ICT-enhanced music education practices.
