Abstract

Physical education (PE) plays an essential role in the comprehensive development of Vietnamese people as the country enters an era of industrialization, modernization, and international integration. In response to the emerging demands of a knowledge-based society, PE not only promotes physical health but also contributes to the development of character, competencies, solidarity, and resilience among younger generations. This study analyzes the current state of physical education, orientations for innovation, the application of technology, and solutions for its development in the new period. The ultimate objective is to foster the holistic development of Vietnamese people in terms of morality, intellect, physical well-being, and aesthetics, thereby meeting the demands of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the digital society.

Keywords: Comprehensive development, digital transformation, industrialization, international integration, modernization, physical education.
