International practice of artificially controlled environment at the physical education process of higher education students

Abstract

The article examines the international experience of using artificially controlled environment (ACE) in the process of physical education of higher education students. Based on bibliographic analysis, content analysis, comparative analysis and data systematization method, 14 scientific sources identified on leading international scientific platforms were analyzed. The purpose – to investigate the international experience of using artificially controlled environments in the process of physical education of higher education students. Methods: bibliographic analysis, content analysis, comparative analysis and data systematization method. The results of the research. It was determined that ACE are actively being implemented in the world practice of physical education, covering mobile applications, virtual reality, metaverse, gamification, wearable devices and intellectual platforms. These technologies provide personalization, adaptive exercises, and real-time feedback that significantly increase students' motivation, engagement, and self-control, contributing to improvements in their motor skills and fitness. Conclusions. Research confirms the ability of ACE to ensure the continuity of the educational process in the face of external challenges (e.g., the COVID-19 pandemic) and to create immersive, guided training environments. It was found that self-management of learning is a key factor in the successful use of digital tools. Prospects for further research include the study of the long-term effects of ACE, a detailed comparative analysis of its forms, the development of more advanced adaptive algorithms based on AI, the consideration of ethical aspects and data confidentiality, as well as the development of methods of training teachers to work in a digital environment. In general, the technologies of ACE have the potential to qualitatively transform physical education, making it more efficient, accessible and attractive.
