Physical Education Teachers’ Commitment and Behavior Towards Continuing Education

Abstract

This study analyses the commitment and behaviour of physical education teachers to continuing education around six dimensions, including pedagogical training, with the aim of developing an action plan based on the commitment of physical education teachers to continuing education and the profession in the areas of pedagogical training, sport-specific certification, adapted physical education, and technological integration. This study used quantitative research methods to explore the commitment to continuing education and professional action plans of these teachers. The results of the study revealed that physical education teachers' active participation in activities such as continuing education is a commitment to their professional development. The enhancement of these behaviours can better serve students; PE teachers' attitudes and subjective norms help to promote continuous learning and improvement; through participation in activities such as adaptive physical education and technology integration access, they can better apply theoretical knowledge to practical teaching and learning, and enhance the teaching effectiveness and student experience; PE teachers' commitment and behaviours to CPD is not only a responsibility, but also a mission, which is important for the teacher individuals, students and society as a whole have a positive and far-reaching impact.
