Deep Learning-based physical education for elementary school students: A literature review

Abstract

Physical Education (PJ) learning in elementary schools requires an innovative learning approach to create an active and meaningful learning process. This study aims to describe the concept of in-depth learning in PJ in elementary schools and analyze the benefits and challenges of its implementation. This study uses a qualitative approach with library research methods. Data sources were obtained from articles, books, and seminar proceedings relevant to the topics of in-depth learning, PJ learning, and elementary education. Data collection techniques were carried out through identification and selection of literature based on the relevance and credibility of the sources. Data were analyzed using content analysis techniques and interpreted the research results descriptively. The results of the study indicate that the application of in-depth learning in PJ learning in elementary schools can be done through experiential, collaborative, reflective, and contextual learning. This approach can improve learning motivation, critical thinking skills, motor skills, social skills, and the formation of student discipline and sportsmanship. However, the implementation of in-depth learning still faces various challenges, such as limited facilities and infrastructure, teacher competence, differences in student abilities, and limited learning time. Therefore, optimization efforts are needed through teacher training, the development of innovative learning models, the use of learning media and technology, and support from schools and parents to ensure the effective implementation of in-depth learning in physical education in elementary schools.
