Abstract
Aim. This study examined how effectively managing website information media can enhance the active involvement of physical education (PE) teacher alumni as education and physical activity ambassadors in rural communities, using a systematic literature review approach.
Materials and methods. Data were gathered through a comprehensive search of Google Scholar, focusing on journals indexed in the Scopus database and published between 2019 and 2024. A total of 18,000 articles were initially identified. Through multiple phases of rigorous screening—including title and abstract screening, eligibility assessment, and relevance validation—only 19 studies met the inclusion criteria. The selected studies were further evaluated based on research design quality, relevance to rural PE engagement, and technological application effectiveness.
Results. The findings indicate that proficient management of online information platforms plays a critical role in mobilizing alumni to support physical education, community health, and injury prevention programs in underserved regions. Identified mechanisms include knowledge dissemination, promotion of functional training, online coaching, and rehabilitation support. Alumni use web-based media to deliver educational content, organize sports initiatives, and foster behavioral change related to health and physical activity. Compared to traditional outreach methods, such as direct programming or community campaigns, web platforms offer greater scalability and sustainability, especially in geographically isolated settings. Additionally, these platforms support physiotherapy engagement, enabling digital consultations, injury recovery guidance, and biomechanical education. This positions alumni as hybrid agents of education, public health, and grassroots sport development.
Conclusions. Effective website management not only strengthens alumni roles in rural education and wellness but also contributes to long-term strategies for improving community resilience, reducing health disparities, and promoting inclusive physical activity practices.
