Abstract

Background: Students with quadriplegia often encounter significant barriers to participation in physical education due to limited mobility and the lack of structured adaptive learning models. Despite the potential of boccia as an inclusive sport, its use as a pedagogical tool in school-based physical education remains underexplored. Objectives: This study aimed to develop and evaluate a modified boccia-based learning model to support gross motor skill development among students with quadriplegia in special education settings. Methods: A research and development (R&D) approach based on the Borg and Gall model was implemented in six stages. Participants were recruited from a special education school in Surakarta, Indonesia, involving five students in the small-group trial and 20 students in the field trial. The intervention was conducted over eight sessions. Data were collected using expert validation sheets and a modified version of the Test of Gross Motor Development–Second Edition (TGMD-2). Pre–post differences were analysed using paired-samples t-tests, and effect size was calculated using Cohen’s d. Results: The developed model demonstrated acceptable content validity (CVR = 0.50-1.00; mean = 0.60) and satisfactory reliability (r > 0.50; p < 0.05). Gross motor skill scores increased from 48.78 (pretest) to 85.78 (posttest), with a statistically significant difference (p < 0.001) and a very large effect size (d = 3.70). However, these findings should be interpreted cautiously due to the absence of a control group and the small sample size. Conclusion: The modified boccia-based learning model shows potential as a feasible and practical approach for supporting motor skill development in students with quadriplegia. Further research using controlled experimental designs is required to confirm its effectiveness.

Abstract

This research aims to know whether illustration pictures may improves the reading of Class VIII B of SMPN 2 Kragan who found it difficult to adapt to regular classroom environment from years of e-learning. The theory of the research is based on the DCT Theory by Clark and Paivio. The researcher used Classroom Action Research, the researcher acts as collaborator, while the teacher acts as the implementator. The technique used in this research is illustration pictures. This research consists of two cycles, and each consists of four meetings. There are 32 students as participants. Three research instruments utilized in this research are test, observation, and interview. The findings of the research demonstrates that using illustration pictures to improve the students’ reading comprehension resulted in success. The students’ average score in pre-test is 50,625, the students’ average score in post-test 2 is 79,125, which means growth from the pre-test to post-test 2 is 56,29%. This research also resulted in students become more attentive to the learning and the classroom condition is more suitable to let the students adapt from e-learning to regular classroom environment. A conclusion can be made that illustration pictures technique is successful to improve students’ reading comprehension. Keywords: illustration pictures, reading, classroom action research

Abstract

Background: Physical inactivity among adolescents contributes to declining fitness and rising obesity rates. Although aerobic exercise has proven benefits, evidence on structured high-impact gymnastics for school-aged populations remains limited. Objectives: This study aims to examine the effect of high impact gymnastics exercises on physical fitness and body mass index in high school students. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design involving 40 purposively selected students assigned to a high-impact gymnastics group and a control group. Physical fitness was measured using the Tes Kebugaran Jasmani Indonesia (TKJI), and BMI was calculated from height and weight. Normality (Shapiro–Wilk) and homogeneity (Levene’s test) assumptions were met (p > 0.05), allowing parametric analysis. Paired-samples t-tests were used to examine within-group changes, while independent-samples t-tests tested between-group differences (α = 0.05). Effect sizes (Cohen’s d) were calculated to determine the magnitude of the intervention effects. Results: The high-impact gymnastics group showed significant improvements in TKJI scores (t = 7.892, p < 0.001, d = 1.52) and reductions in BMI (t = 3.210, p = 0.004, d = 0.72), whereas the control group showed no meaningful changes. Posttest comparisons confirmed that the intervention group outperformed the control group in physical fitness (t = 5.432, p < 0.001, d = 1.70) and had significantly lower BMI (t = 2.845, p = 0.007, d = 0.90). These findings indicate that high-impact gymnastics effectively improves physical fitness and reduces BMI among high school students. Conclusion: High-impact gymnastics was found to significantly improve students’ physical fitness (TKJI scores) and reduce BMI, demonstrating strong effectiveness as a school-based physical education strategy. This programme can support the development of an active lifestyle and contribute to early prevention of overweight and obesity among adolescents. However, the generalisability of the findings is limited by the sample size and quasi-experimental design. Future studies should involve larger and more diverse populations, longer intervention periods, and comparisons with alternative training models to strengthen evidence for broader implementation.
