Objectives
We aim to promote Quality Physical Education (QPE) through quality research and community projects. Our work
encompasses the study of teaching and learning, application of information technology in physical education, the
design and implementation of school- and family-based interventions, and teacher professional development. Through the
application of evidence-based practices, we are determined to cultivate a positive and supportive environment in
school and home settings that enhances the physical literacy of individuals at all ages.
