Analysis of the enhancement of computer simulation on physical education teaching in colleges and universities

Abstract

Abstract The integration of computer simulation and modeling into physical education represents a significant shift in teaching methodologies within higher education, prompted by the advancements of the digital era. This study scrutinizes the effectiveness of such technologies in augmenting student learning outcomes and pedagogical efficiency in PE courses. Through the application of virtual reality and precise movement modeling, the research contrasts the impacts of traditional teaching with those of computer-assisted simulations. Findings demonstrate that computer simulation significantly improves students’ physical fitness (by 15%) and skill proficiency (by 20%) and markedly increases their engagement with the subject matter. Additionally, the ability to practice in a simulated, hazard-free environment reduces the time required to master skills. These results support the broad implementation of simulation technologies in physical education, promising enhanced student motivation, skill development, and academic interest.
