En una era en la que el compromiso digital domina la vida de los niños, este estudio explora cómo los estudiantes de la Generación Alfa perciben las clases de educación física y deportes. El estudio se llevó a cabo mediante un modelo de encuesta con 416 estudiantes de enseñanza media. Los datos se recogieron utilizando la «Escala de actitudes de los estudiantes de secundaria hacia el curso de educación física», así como un formulario demográfico. Se realizaron análisis estadísticos descriptivos e inferenciales, incluyendo pruebas t, ANOVA y comparaciones post-hoc, para identificar diferencias significativas basadas en variables demográficas. Los resultados revelaron que las alumnas mostraban actitudes más positivas hacia la duración de las clases y el compromiso en comparación con los alumnos, mientras que ambos sexos mostraban actitudes relativamente neutras hacia los profesores. Además, el interés por la educación física disminuía con la edad y el curso, sobre todo entre los alumnos de octavo. La educación de los padres y los niveles de ingresos también mostraron asociaciones significativas con las actitudes de los estudiantes, lo que sugiere que el entorno socioeconómico influye en la percepción de la educación física. A pesar de que, en general, el interés era de moderado a bajo, los alumnos consideraban que la duración de las clases era adecuada. Estos resultados subrayan la importancia de rediseñar los planes de estudios de educación física para adaptarlos a las preferencias digitales de la Generación Alfa. La integración de métodos interactivos y herramientas digitales puede ayudar a fomentar la motivación y el compromiso en las clases de educación física.
