Abstract

This study is a systematic review that examines the impact of teacher competence on student participation and motivation in physical activity. The results of the review showed the mediating role of teacher support in linking learning strategies with students' active involvement in physical activities, in accordance with the theory of self-determination. Competent teachers can improve students' perceptions of competence, meet basic psychological needs such as autonomy and competence, thereby increasing students' intrinsic motivation and active engagement. In addition, teachers' digital competence, cross-cultural understanding, and the ability to manage virtual classrooms also have a significant influence on the learning process of Physical Education. Sociodemographic factors and teachers' work experience are important variables in competency development. These findings confirm the importance of improving teacher competencies, including digital skills and transcultural approaches, to support the effectiveness of Physical Education learning in the modern era . © 2026, Campus EDUCA SPORTIS S.L..
