Abstract | Purpose: Given the unique characteristics of physical education (PE) teaching in K-12 education, PE teachers' information behaviors deserve special attention. This article reports a survey study of PE teachers' information behaviors, covering information literacy skills and behaviors of informationseeking and information use. Design/methodology/approach: A questionnaire survey was conducted of K-12 physical education (PE) teachers in the Tianjin municipal region of China, with aresponse rate of 61.9%. Research limitations/implications: The survey is limited to the Tianjin municipal region in scope. Though attempting to reach 210 participants from 40 schools, it yielded only 130 valid responses. A larger survey covering more regions and with greater responses may be useful. Practical implications: Insights from this study inform the educational and on-job training of K-12 PE teachers to improve their information literacy skills. Originality/value: Little research exists on PE teachers' behaviors of information seeking. This study bridges the gap and enriches our understanding of K-12 teachers’ information behaviors. |
