Abstract

To improve the physical education experience for students, this study investigates the idea of an integrated solution based on a smart campus for physical education. Within the physical education curriculum, the study focuses on the integration of smart fitness monitoring and wearables, interactive fitness equipment and gamification, mobile applications and customized workout plans, smart facilities, indoor navigation, and data-driven curriculum enhancements. The data gathered from a study involving two groups of students, an experimental group with access to smart campus solutions and a control group without such access, was analyzed using an organized and component-based framework. The data study looks at how the smart campus solutions affect the students' academic performance, fitness levels, motivation, and adherence to exercise regimens. The analyzed findings point to a few advantages of using smart campus technologies in physical education. Compared to the control group, students in the experimental group showed higher levels of academic performance, increased motivation, improved exercise adherence, and fitness. Students who had access to smart campus solutions reported much better experiences with physical education overall. The results imply that smart campus technologies have the potential to produce a physical education learning environment that is more interesting, focused on the needs of the students, and effective. Smart campus solutions help optimize curriculum design, boost motivation, and enhance academic performance by utilizing data-driven insights and personalized learning experiences.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This study investigates the idea of an integrated solution based on a smart campus for physical education.
