| Abstract | ||
| The research attempts to develop a proposed framework for improving the physical education and sports curriculum in the light of artificial intelligence concepts and future skills. Also, it tried to spotlight the reality of the current curricula, what concepts should be present in it, what is needed for development, and what role developed curricula play in developing future skills of the student. The study used the descriptive method with the survey approach to attain the data needed for the study. The sample of the research included 135 students of Al-Aqsa University, of them 15 students for the exploratory study and 120 students for the main study, and they were selected by the purposive method. A questionnaire of 40 statements was prepared in this research to collect data. This questionnaire was distributed over 4 axes; the reality of current curricula, what artificial intelligence concepts should be incorporated, what is required to develop the curricula, and what is the role of the developed curricula in developing future skills. The measurement instrument’s psychometric characteristics were verified by means of validity and reliability coefficients, while the data were processed using SPSS. The results indicated that the reality of current physical education curricula has a moderate agreement level tending toward low (M = 2.48 ± SD = 0.91), indicating limited compatibility with the requirements of the digital age. Moreover, the results showed a strong agreement about the inclusion of concepts related to artificial intelligence in the curricula at a mean of 4.43 ± 0.66, with artificial intelligence applications in sports performance analysis being the top-ranking. The requirements for the axis of curriculum development registered the highest mean, 4.49 ± 0.63, with faculty training and infrastructural development being among the most important. The study also discovered that the designed curricula could highly help enhance the future competencies of students, especially digital literacy, critical thinking, and data analysis. In this case, the mean value for this study was 4.45 ± 0.65. The mean score for the questionnaire across all domains was 3.96 ± 0.71. The findings of the research confirmed that the current physical education curricula are far from meeting the requirements of digital transformation and the contemporary sports labor market. It also showed that the integration of artificial intelligence concepts, development of infrastructure, and qualifying faculty members are key requirements for curriculum development. As per the outcomes of the study, curricula developed based on artificial intelligence contribute to the development of future skills and to preparing better-capable graduates who are able to adapt to modern sports and educational environments. | ||
