A Study on the Instructional Design of Interdisciplinary Thematic Learning in Middle School Physical Education Based on the CASES-T Model

With the deepening of educational reform, interdisciplinary thematic learning, as an emerging educational model, has become a focus of attention in the field of educational research. Based on the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education concept and CASES-T (Content, Activity, Situation, Evaluation, Strategy-Target) model, this study provides a theoretical basis for the teaching design and implementation of interdisciplinary thematic learning in middle school physical education. Through the analysis of specific interdisciplinary thematic learning cases, it aims to provide theoretical support and practical guidance for the reform of middle school physical education through the CASES-T model-based interdisciplinary thematic teaching design research in middle school physical education, in order to enhance students’ learning effects, cultivate core literacy in physical education, and promote students’ all-round development.
