The students were allowed to use ICT devices (smartphone, webpages, Facebook) during a four-week intervention. In the course of the research project aimed to assess the impact of the application of ICT devices on performance and motivation, the participants were divided into two test groups and one control group. The sample consisted of secondary school students including 21 males and 64 females with the Mage = 16.72 years. The results showed that in groups where ICT devices were used, performance (p = 0.04) and task orientation (p = 0.00) significantly improved. Meanwhile, in the group in which ICT devices were not used, the intervention resulted in improved performance (p = 0.00) and by the end of the project, this trend was coupled with increased Ego orientation (p = 0.00) and higher rate of amotivation (p = 0.04). It can be concluded that the use of ICT tools has a positive impact on performance and motivation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/informatics10010020","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,6]],"date-time":"2023-02-06T02:06:43Z","timestamp":1675649203000},"page":"20","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Impact of Applying Information and Communication Technology Tools in Physical Education Classes"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9324-8715","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Attila","family":"Varga","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Sport Science, Eszterh\u00e1zy K\u00e1roly Catholic University, H-3300 Eger, Hungary"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8821-3155","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"L\u00e1szl\u00f3","family":"R\u00e9v\u00e9sz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Sport Science, Eszterh\u00e1zy K\u00e1roly Catholic University, H-3300 Eger, Hungary"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"WHO\/Europe (2022, July 11).
