Speech Title：Thoughts on the Reform and Development of School Physical Education in the New Era

Abstract: Combining the "historical position of the new era" with "General Secretary Xi Jinping’s outlook on sports ", the report proposed several ideas on the reform and development of sports education in the new era. First, it is necessary to adhere to the education idea of putting student’s health first and to coordinate the academic study and physical exercise for the youth. Second, courses in physical sports should be organized well, and discussion should be undertaken on opening PE course in the senior grade of universities. Third, how to evaluate the physical education course correctly and effectively should be also discussed. Fourth, it is imperative to carry out extracurricular physical exercises correctly and reasonably. Fifth, it is urgent to promote traditional Chinese sports. Sixth, the lack of faculty should be addressed. Seventh, social sports resources need to be coordinated. Eighth, the sports problems of the secondary examination and the college entrance examination should be discussed. Ninth, improving the post evaluation of PE teachers is necessary.

According to the above issues, the paper put forward the following suggestions: 1. Strengthen the teaching points in class, and reform the evaluation methods of physical education; enhance the linkage between physical education, extracurricular sports activities and outside-school sports activities; Establish a sports competition system with abundant contents and various forms. 2. Strengthen the monitoring of the time of the students' sports activities outside the school, and connect family sports and community sports; 3. Excavate and sort out folk sports; 4. Strengthen the training of basic skills of PE teachers, and implement systematical and standardized trainings for the teachers in vocational schools; 5. Improve the operation mechanism of stadium and gymnasium opening to the society, integrate the stadium into the construction plan of urban and rural areas and residential quarters, standardize and scientifically manage the training institutions outside the school.

Speech Title：The Opportunities and Challenges of Information Technology Enabling Sports

Abstract: The importance of information technology in promoting the development of sports has become increasingly prominent. From live video broadcasts of sports games, smart stadiums, wearable smart devices for athletes, health and fitness apps, etc., all of them reflect the changes that information technology has brought to the sports industry. In September 2020, the State Council clearly proposed to vigorously develop smart sports. The development of new technologies such as big data, 5G, VR/AR, and artificial intelligence has brought new opportunities to the sports industry, as well as new data security and privacy protection requirements. In this report, we will discuss the security and privacy challenges of artificial intelligence technology applied to sports big data analysis, and introduce two privacy protection computing technologies, homomorphic encryption and differential privacy, and how to achieve "data available invisible".

Speech Title：On-line teaching and course data construction of university public physical education

Abstract: During the novel coronavirus pneumonia, many problems such as shortage of online course resources, lack of online teaching informatization literacy and so on are needed to reflect on the online teaching of college public physical education. The fundamental reason lies in the neglect of the systematic consideration of "concept renewal, mode change and system reconstruction" of online teaching of college public physical education under the principle of "adhering to the core concept of deep integration of information technology and education" of educational informatization. Under the guidance of the theory of deep integration of information technology and curriculum (i.e. in-depth integration theory), this study combs and analyzes the basic structure and teaching methods of online teaching of college public physical education, and on this basis, puts forward the basic path of the construction of online teaching curriculum resources of college public physical education, In order to provide a useful reference for the sustainable and healthy development of coll.

Speech Title：The role of information technology in sports and sports venues

Abstract：Technology allows us to make buildings more energy efficient and helps reduce carbon emissions. Generally, we have more efficient lighting (LED), better air conditioning and heating systems and materials that reduce heat loss or prevent over heating in the case where climates are hot. What about people who are not architects and engineers or related to construction i.e. including from the players, companies who advertise and the spectator experience. There are many ways that different industries not associated with sport can benefit. Technology changes have meant that it is not only changes to stadiums but also changes to items such as mobile phones. As Pascal Vuilliomenet explains “Take an Olympic stadium as an example,” he said. “You may be watching the athletics and you’re sitting in front of the pole vault but you’re also interested in the 100 metres taking place on the other side of the stadium. With a smartphone, you can watch from a second site. You get to both be inside the stadium and feel the atmosphere, while getting a better view through a screen. To give people at sitting at home watching sports a more realistic experience Microsoft have developed a technology called HoloLens which allows viewers see 3D images that make their viewing appear as if they are in the stadium. This has been set up to allow users to watch US National Football League matches as 3D holograms rather than on a screen, as well as projecting displays, players stats and instant replays. Companies like Apple have also become interested in the concept of Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality. Tottenham Hotspur Football Club aims to make a typical football match a whole day event.  Their new stadium cost £850m (RMB7,491,485,200.00) and is designed to make a football match a full day event i.e. not just to watch the football match but to eat and shop for the whole day.

Speech Title：Correlation between physical fitness test indicators and health indicators

Abstract: The physique test is a derivative of modern scientific development. It uses eye-catching data to quantify the physical state of the human body. In 1979, the preliminary test indicators were formulated as morphological indicators, functional indicators, and quality indicators. There is no medical examination for the time being. In 1985, the index adjustment range was large, and the blood pressure index attracted the attention of experts. In 1991, the indicators reflected "strong operability and good objectivity". In 1995, the "skinfold thickness" test was added. There were no adjustments and changes to the test indicators in 2000 and 2005. In 2010, two indicators of waist circumference and hip circumference were added. The quality index has deleted the back muscle strength.

The World Health Organization’s statement on health is“health is not only the absence of disease or weakness, but the perfect state of physical, mental, and social adaptation.”The“three-dimensional view of health”means“physical health”,“mental health”and“Social health", the World Health Organization also proposed the top ten health standards.

Health takes the disease state and its influencing factors as the core, with the goal of disease-free, healthy and longevity as the goal, and advocates the pursuit of a perfect state of the human body in the body, spirit and society. The physique emphasizes the coordinated development between the structure and function of the human body, focusing on physique, body shape, physical fitness, athletic ability, etc., and tends to emphasize the potential of the human body.

The morphological index and quality index of the physical fitness test have a higher correlation with the exercise ability, while the function index has a higher correlation with the health index. The physique test index focuses on the high and low level of the physique, while the health index pays more attention to the health of the body.

Speech Title：Reflection on video games as a potential means of physical education: an analysis of the procedural rhetoric mechanism based on "NBA 2K"

Abstract: Many educators believe that with implementing basketball video game in the field of Physical Education(PE) would bring many pedagogical advantages over traditional ways. However, according to procedural rhetoric, a term coined by Ian Bogost, any video games are suggesting certain ideological frames by its game rules and procedures, which may bring some potential challenges to PE. Therefore, this paper takes NBA 2K, the most successful basketball video game series until today, as a case study to explore its unique persuasive power through its gameplay rules and procedures. With conducting intensive interviews and analyzing game logs from 114 college students who played NBA 2K, we find out some conclusions: First, Livin`da Dream, an in-game film from NBA 2K16 without any interactions between gamers, tells an untouchable American Dream in terms of fixed narrative. Additionally, harsh reality for an athlete to be drafted in NBA in real life is represented by prearranged game levels and easy gameplay rules, which may lead to an illusion that the way to stardom is as easy as pressing the gamepad. Last but not the least, the Basketball-Centered-Controlling (BCC) mechanics may make the teamwork and tactic training impossible, because no matter which character the player controls, the avatar inherently follows the controller`s playing habits, as a result that the gamer is the only player in the team to think about how to play. Regardless whether these effects are intended or not, it mounts potential challenges when educators who consider undertaking the implement of video games in the field of PE.

Speech Title：The development status and trend of sports big data

Abstract: Sports big data refers to using smart devices to acquire, collect, store and process the multi-dimensional sports data generated by the users. It provides real-time guidance on athletes' training, displays the information of the users’ physical status, and monitors their health condition. In recent years, the number of people who play sports regularly in China have continued to grow. More and more people participate in sports training and are willing to pay for smart devices. The sports big data industry has developed rapidly. Through the analysis of sports lovers’ preferences, their use of smart equipment, and their cognition and demand of sports big data, the study finds that the Chinese sports crowd have real needs for sports big data, and they look for a series of functions in smart devices, including networking, the accurate evaluation of sports data, more personalized data services, and real-time data monitoring. In the future, the development of the sports big data industry will focus on innovation in application scenarios, enhancement of technical capabilities, and integration of supply chain capabilities.

Speech Title：Screens, stillness and sleep in Singapore 

Abstract: The importance of digital media use for work and for leisure continues to grow in prominence and there is pressure to introduce screen time in young people even before they can communicate appropriately. In a globalised and interconnected work, there is no refuge from screens from dusk to dawn while many lie awake at night trying to get to sleep after a bout of screen use from fixed- television, desktop computer, game consoles, and mobile screens- smart phones and iPads. There are 24-hour guidelines for physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep for children less than 5 years old but adolescent and adult guidelines for exercise, sleep and nutrition are separate. Sedentary behaviour, exercise and sleep, in appropriate doses, are the key essential ingredients for optimal functioning and good holistic health. The nexus between screens, exercise or not exercising, physical fitness and indicators of holistic health and body composition is multifaceted and cause-and-effect relationships are difficult to tease out. Nonetheless, Professor Michael Chia highlights some of these complexities, goes imperial and cajoles you that ‘an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure’. Case examples of research into screen, sedentary behaviour, physical activity, fitness and bodyweight status, among preschool children are presented. Aspects of an international research that involve 20 countries in Asia, Europe and the USA, encapsulated as IISSAAR- International Ipreschooler Surveillance Among Asia and otheRs (www.iissaar.com)- are foregrounded.

Speech Title：mHealth Interventions to Address Physical Activity and Sedentary Behaviour in Cancer Survivors

Abstract: Cancer affects all world regions and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Cancer survivors reported poorer physical and mental health compared to adults without cancer. Cancer survivors are also at increased risk of recurrent cancer and other diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis. Increasing physical activity and reducing sedentary behavior have the potential to improve the health and quality of life of cancer survivors. Participation in physical activity during and after cancer treatment is associated with improvements of physiologic and psychosocial outcomes. In contrast, high levels of sedentary behavior in cancer survivors has been linked to increased all-cause mortality, sleep disturbance, poorer physical functioning, and lower quality of life. The proliferation of mobile devices and continuous access to the internet provide an opportunity for mobile health (mHealth) to be used to address physical activity and sedentary behavior in cancer survivors. mHealth is defined as the use of mobile phones, patient monitoring devices, personal digital assistants, and other mobile wireless devices to support medical and public health practice. This presentation will discuss mHealth interventions that have been used to address physical activity and/or sedentary behavior in people who have been diagnosed with any type of cancer. Most research evaluated the efficacy of mHealth apps, wearable trackers, and text messages in increasing physical activity or increasing physical activity and reducing sedentary behaviour. On the whole, mHealth has been found to effectively address physical activity and sedentary behaviour in cancer survivors.
