摘要
Purpose: Through the use of a connectivist approach, this study explored how physical education teachers engaged with technology before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: A convergent parallel mixed-method research design was used to collect both quantitative and qualitative data through an online survey, which were then analyzed. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the quantitative data, while open and axial coding techniques were used for qualitative data analysis. Results: Despite facing difficulties in adopting technology during the pandemic, unexpected opportunities were presented such as using technology for professional development purposes. Furthermore, the use of technology among teachers increased postpandemic compared with prepandemic levels. Discussion/Conclusions: By viewing the findings through a connectivist approach as a theoretical lens, technology offers diverse resources teachers can use to enhance their teaching practices, as well as serve as a tool for online learning.
