Abstract
This study investigates finding ways to improve engagement of students in Physical Education classes to inspire students to make healthy lifestyle choices. It appears that the existing barriers to the adoption of technology are more commonly found around teacher pedagogy, as opposed to access and resources. Physical Education study participants in this project implemented the use of iPads in their teaching practice for one month, and the results revealed that there was some shifting of teacher beliefs, and there was success with the use of technology in terms of teaching and learning.
