Overview

Randomized trial develops a digital competence framework for pre-service physical education teachers, suggesting improved tech integration in teaching.

Key Points

  • This study aims to develop and validate a digital competence framework specifically tailored for pre-service physical education teachers.
  • Utilized an exploratory sequential mixed-methods design for framework development.
  • Evaluated the measurement instrument using item analysis and cross-validation with 1,437 questionnaires.
  • Surveyed a total of 3,128 pre-service physical education teachers to assess various factors influencing digital competence.
  • The seven-factor framework showed satisfactory reliability and good fit (p<0.001).
  • Institutional tier and GPA ranking positively correlated with digital competence.
  • First-generation college status and low-income family status negatively impacted digital competence scores.
