Abstract

Background. Motor skill acquisition is considered one of the long-lasting challenges that exist in gymnastics skills teaching. Handstand, one of the most challenging and sensitive gymnastics skills that requires agility, coordination, and motor skills. Teaching gymnastics skills in many situations follow conventional teaching without considering effective cognitive strategies that would help students enhance motor learning and decision-making skills. Objectives. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of lateral thinking based instruction on motor agility and handstand skill acquisition in artistic gymnastics. Methods. An experimental pretest–posttest control group design was used. Students in their second year at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, Wasit University participated in this study and assigned randomly into two groups: an experimental group and a control group. Eight gymnastics instructional units were applied for experimental group according to lateral thinking strategy stages, while conventional instruction was applied for the control group. Agility and handstand tests were measured for both groups pretest and posttest using standardized tests. Results. Based on the results of the study on the control group and the experimental group, there was a very significant increase with a p-value of

Abstract

Background. The importance of this research has emerged in its focus on blended learning to help students increase their motivation to learn, develop cognitive and performance skills, and meet their individual needs so that each student learns at their own pace. It also increases their sense of equality in educational opportunities. Objectives. The purpose of this paper is to design an educational program using a blended learning strategy and to determine its impact on students' gymnastic skill performance. Method. The researcher used the experimental method, given its suitability for the nature of this research, adopting a single-group experimental design with pre- and post-tests. After conducting the pre-tests and entering the data into Excel, the researcher implemented the main experiment on the research sample for 12 weeks, with two units per week. After completing the main experiment, the post-tests were conducted, and the data were entered into Excel. This data was processed using the SPSS statistical package. Results. The total average arithmetic mean for the regular physical education lesson is (1.79), and the total average arithmetic mean for the physical education lesson with applications of the blended learning strategy is (2.96). Conclusion. There are statistically significant differences between the average pre- and post-tests of the experimental group regarding gymnastic skill performance, in favor of the post-test.
