Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: In the modern educational space, innovations play an important role in optimising education. Accordingly, the aim of the study is to classify the chief innovative solutions in physical education and to describe their opportunities and challenges. For this purpose, the concept of descriptive research was used. The main research tools are questionnaires and observations. The participants of the study are students and teachers of higher education institutions (30 people in total). A purposive sample was used to involve them, which involved the deliberate selection of participants according to specific criteria (ability to understand modern technologies, experience of their use). Observation was conducted during lectures and practical classes. The data obtained were categorised and analysed comparatively. The results indicate that yoga, Nordic walks, pump aerobics, fitness aerobics, step aerobics and martial arts are important elements in modern digital learning. The integration of such areas improves the physical fitness of students. An important role is also played by the use of modern technologies: digital, multimedia, interactive, virtual and augmented reality, which contribute to the interest of students in the learning process. The conclusions summarise that despite their potential, the implementation of these technologies faces a number of difficulties: insufficient material and technical base, lack of qualifications, and the fact that some technologies are superficially used.
