Why were new teaching methods used in physical education?

Correct answer: To make learning effective and interesting

The governing concept is the improvement of teaching and learning through modern, learner-centred methods. New methods may use demonstration, guided practice, peer learning, games, problem-solving, technology, and reflection so that students understand skills, remain engaged, and receive opportunities suited to different abilities. Consequently, option A is correct: these methods aim to make learning both effective and interesting. Option B is wrong because physical-education teaching is intended to increase meaningful participation. Option C contradicts the fitness purpose of the subject, while option D is also incorrect because modern methods can integrate health knowledge rather than remove it.
