IMPROVING RUNNING AND JUMPING TECHNIQUES IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION THROUGH VIDEO ANALYSIS AND MOBILE APPLICATIONS

Abstract

This article examines the pedagogical potential of video analysis and mobile applications for improving running and jumping techniques in physical education. In contemporary sports education, the quality of movement instruction increasingly depends on the integration of digital tools that allow teachers and students to observe, measure, and correct technical actions with greater accuracy. The study focuses on how video replay, frame-by-frame motion review, biomechanical visualization, and mobile-based feedback systems contribute to the development of motor skills in university students preparing for professional activity in the field of physical education. Particular attention is given to sprint mechanics, takeoff phases, body alignment, coordination patterns, and landing control as essential components of technically efficient performance. The article argues that digital feedback supports motor learning by making invisible errors visible, strengthening self-analysis, and increasing students’ engagement in the correction process. It is also shown that mobile applications create favorable conditions for individualized instruction, ongoing assessment, and coaching analytics in practical classes. The analysis suggests that the combined use of video technologies and mobile platforms improves technical awareness, accelerates skill acquisition, and enhances the methodological readiness of future physical education teachers to apply innovative instructional approaches in their professional practice.
