Technology in Sport Practice Exam

The idea being tested is how technology in sport should be used to improve performance through feedback while also considering safety, fairness, and ethics. Technology provides data from sensors, video analysis, and analytics that coach and athlete can use to refine technique, optimize training loads, and inform tactical decisions. This creates a continuous feedback loop where performance improves as insights are applied, but real-world risks must be managed—inequality of access to tech, potential for injury if overreliance or misinterpretation occurs, and ethical concerns around privacy, data ownership, and fair play.

That balanced view is why the statement about enhancing performance through feedback and recognizing risks is the best fit. The other options miss essential parts: focusing only on revenue ignores performance and safety; aiming to eliminate human decision-making undermines the sport’s human elements and coaching role; and standardizing all equipment doesn’t address the broader goal of using technology to improve outcomes while handling associated risks.
