The current state of high school physical education: Exploring socialization and Aligning with the 2018 high school education program

Abstract

The aim of this study was to assess the current state of physical education program implementation and the socialization of physical education in high schools in Vietnam. A questionnaire was designed using Google Form, consisting of 15 questions. Questions 1 to 11 were related to the physical education program, while questions 12 to 15 focused on the socialization of physical education. The survey included 345 participants, including education administrators and high school teachers, and was conducted online in Hanoi city and Lai Chau province. The survey employed a rating scale divided into four levels: non-satisfied, partially satisfied, satisfied, and well satisfied. The results indicate that the actual implementation of physical education programs in high schools falls short of the targets set by the 2018 high school education program issued by the Ministry of Education and Training of Vietnam. Furthermore, there are significant limitations in terms of socializing physical education activities, as these activities have not had a substantial positive impact on the quality of physical education teaching in high schools.
