Traditional physical education teaching cannot meet the needs of current learners. In order to enhance learning outcomes and motivation, sports teaching methods and course design should explore innovative ways to integrate technology into teaching and improve information literacy of teachers. This article explores changes, difficulties and problems encountered when information technology is introduced into physical education. It also examines related patterns of integrating information technology and physical education through literature review. Findings reveal that the current modes of integrating technology into teaching can be classified into three groups: "multimedia systems", "social network services", and "wearable advice". Each displays significant results in physical education or training applications; they may gradually replace traditional sports teaching methods and practices by making learning more innovative, enjoyable, interactive, and efficient. In addition to the traditional emphases on the effectiveness of learning, student feedback, and teacher-student interaction, future options for supportive teaching in physical education will require information literacy, high-quality technological leadership, and an appropriate learning environment and curriculum design. Only happy teachers can help students to enjoy learning.
