“…Thus, utilizing bibliometric analysis was found suitable in this study as it was an advantageous approach for assessing the literature on physical activity in schools. It served as an effective way to highlight significant research topics and emerging directions about physical activity in schools (Fernandez et al, 2022;Miranda & Tolentino, 2023).…”

“…Keywords as a search term greatly impact future researchers' ability to easily search for studies (Moran, 2021). The utilization of keywords has been widely used in bibliometric fields (Fernandez et al, 2022;Saleem et al, 2021;Yu et al, 2020). Moreover, developing the keywords approach as a method determines the most popular themes explored in bibliometric analysis research (Moran, 2021).…”

Physical activity has captured considerable interest from international academic scholars due to its fundamental role in maintaining optimal health. Thus, this study sought to examine the scholarly articles on school-based physical activity, employing a comprehensive bibliometric analysis extracted from the Scopus database spanning 2013 to 2023. A filtering protocol was utilized to guide the selection of articles, and analyses were facilitated solely by Python programming. This research yielded extensive insights encompassing document type, publication rates, citation rates, prevalent keywords, and geographic distribution. The results revealed the prominence of "Articles" as the primary document category. Notably, the year 2020 was observed as the highest publication count, with 2014 being the peak year for citation rates. However, both publication and citation patterns exhibited substantial fluctuations. These analyses collectively identify the United States as the largest contributor among the top ten countries, accompanied by substantial contributions from European nations. The analysis of the top 50 most-cited journal articles indicates a prevalence of articles authored by one to five individuals, with a peak in publications during 2014, followed by a gradual decline. Notably, the keyword "children" prominently emerges across the datasets, underscoring its frequent utilization in the context of school-based physical activity research.

“…The need to revisit the status of physical education in the Philippines is of vital importance (Fernandez et al, 2022), hence, reviewing the physical education program is a critical component of the curriculum development continuum. Considering the existing literature and studies, there is a need to further, explore how physical education programs at the collegiate level are implemented and how compliant it is with the existing national standards and international benchmarks for quality.…”

The study aimed to evaluate the implementation of the revitalized tertiary physical education program known as the Physical Activity towards Health and Fitness (PATHFit) of a state university in Pampanga, Philippines relative to the statutory standard of the Commission on Higher Education and UNESCO’s Quality Physical Education (QPE) Model. A Mixed Methods Sequential Explanatory Design was utilized involving faculty members (n = 24) and a stratified sample of second-year college students (n = 114). Instrumentations were drafted based on the provisions of two standards considered in the study. The quantitative phase revealed that both the internal stakeholders evaluated the standards of the CMO 39, s. 2021 and the QPE standards and found them to be extremely evident and extremely effective. Additionally, t-tests revealed that there was a significant difference in the evaluation of the respondents. Regression analysis further identified that all five dimensions of the QPE which are assessed in concreteness are significant predictors of program effectiveness. The qualitative phase explored the two dimensions as actualized by the university in terms of notable practices and challenges encountered. It was suggested that the university may institutionalize mechanisms to foster quality physical education standards as embedded in the curriculum development cycle's planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation protocols.

The use of information and communications technology (ICT) has revolutionized the way people communicate and interact with one another. While there is an extensive ICT utilization in a plethora of disciplines, an exploration of the specific field of health education poses significant implications. This chapter used bibliometric analysis to describe how ICT is applied in health education. Specifically, it followed a five-step workflow to achieve this goal. Among the key findings of this chapter is that ICT research on health education has been roughly stagnant in recent years. Most of the published health technology research is trending toward nursing, e-learning, social media, graduate and higher education, communication, and distance education. Western countries dominated the number of publications, and the USA remains the most productive country in this research area. Overall, this chapter provides an overview of the research landscape when it comes to the application of ICT in health education. Future research undertakings were offered to propel the health technology literature.
