The comprehensive quality model of the virtual education of practical lessons for physical education students in the Corona period

The purpose of the current research was to compile a model of factors affecting the quality of virtual education of practical lessons for physical education students in the Corona era from the point of view of physical education students. This research was conducted in a mixed exploratory manner. In the qualitative phase of the research, 15 university professors participated in semi-structured interviews through purposive sampling. Quantitative phase statistical samples included 300 physical education undergraduate students who were selected by random sampling. The research tool was a questionnaire extracted from the qualitative phase, including the variables of educational factors, educational infrastructure, expert human resources, efficient learning processes, effective evaluation, easy technology, and human interactions. In order to analyze the data, first the construct validity and sampling adequacy were checked using the KMO test and the Bartlett sphericity test, and finally the Amos software was used at the significance level (P ≥ 0.05). The research results showed that educational factors, educational infrastructure, expert human resources and technology had the highest path coefficient. Therefore, it is recommended to the institutions in charge and policy makers of this sector to provide the basis for the improvement of the training of practical units by holding virtual training courses along with the establishment of easy technology and the development of training infrastructures.
