The purpose of the research is to establish criteria for evaluating positivity in physical education learning for students at universities in Quang Ngai Province, Vietnam. The purpose of the research is to develop criteria for evaluating the positive aspects of studying physical education courses for university students in Quang Ngai Province, Vietnam.
