The Integration of Technology within Physical Education Teacher Education: Perceptions of the

Faculty
Objective:
To assess the perceptions of faculty members regarding the integration of technology within physical
education teacher education (PETE) programs and to develop strategies for effective implementation.

Action Plan:
1. Pre-Survey Preparation:

 Design a comprehensive survey instrument to gauge faculty perceptions on technology


integration in PETE.
 Collaborate with stakeholders to ensure the survey captures relevant insights and concerns.
 Pilot test the survey to refine questions and ensure clarity.
2. Faculty Survey Administration:

 Distribute the survey to all faculty members involved in PETE programs.


 Utilize multiple channels (email, online platforms, etc.) to maximize response rates.
 Set a reasonable deadline for survey completion and send reminders as necessary.
3. Data Collection and Analysis:

 Collect survey responses and ensure data integrity.


 Employ both qualitative and quantitative analysis methods to interpret survey results.
 Identify common themes, trends, and areas of concern among faculty responses.
4. Faculty Focus Groups or Interviews:

 Organize focus group discussions or individual interviews with willing faculty members.
 Dive deeper into specific topics identified in the survey findings.
 Encourage open dialogue to gather nuanced insights and potential solutions.
5. Stakeholder Consultation:

 Engage key stakeholders such as department heads, technology experts, and educational
policymakers.
 Present survey findings and solicit feedback on potential strategies for technology integration.
 Incorporate diverse perspectives to ensure a comprehensive approach.
6. Strategy Development:

 Based on survey data and stakeholder input, develop a set of actionable strategies for integrating
technology into PETE programs.
 Consider factors such as resource allocation, faculty training, curriculum development, and
assessment methods.
 Prioritize strategies based on feasibility, impact, and alignment with institutional goals.
7. Pilot Implementation:
 Select a subset of PETE courses or modules to pilot test the identified strategies.
 Provide support and training to faculty involved in the pilot implementation.
 Gather feedback from both faculty and students to evaluate the effectiveness of the strategies.
8. Refinement and Scaling:

 Assess the outcomes of the pilot implementation and identify areas for improvement.
 Refine strategies based on feedback and lessons learned.
 Develop a plan for scaling successful initiatives across all PETE programs.
9. Continuous Evaluation and Adjustment:

 Establish mechanisms for ongoing evaluation of technology integration efforts within PETE.
 Monitor faculty perceptions, student outcomes, and technological advancements.
 Continuously adjust strategies to stay aligned with evolving needs and best practices.
10. Dissemination of Findings:

 Compile a report summarizing survey findings, strategies, and outcomes.


 Present findings to relevant stakeholders within the institution and at professional conferences.
 Share best practices and lessons learned with the broader PETE community through publications
and presentations.

 Pre-Survey Preparation: 1 month


 Faculty Survey Administration: 2 weeks
 Data Collection and Analysis: 1.5 months
 Faculty Focus Groups or Interviews: 1 month
 Stakeholder Consultation: 2 weeks
 Strategy Development: 2 months
