A Conceptual E-learning Model of Kinesiology and Perceived Online Courses by College Students

Abstract

By reviewing the history of e-learning literature, it is not difficulty to observe how successful of elearning courses and programs across the subject matters of science, language, history, and many other scientific oriented courses. However, questions such as “Is e-learning platform suitable for college Kinesiology, Sport Study, Recreation, Physical Education, and Leisure Study?” and “What are the subject matters that students want to take via e-learning?” etc. are still largely unknown questions for many educators. In the information age today, we are experiencing a variety of demands for physical wellness and health education from many sources. How an e-learning educational programming for Kinesiology and health education can be adequately developed to meet such challenges is still one of the widely discussed topics today among educators. This paper describes an e-learning model for Kinesiology based on an international survey result and the taxonomy of Kinesiology.
