Abstract

The development of fundamental motor skills (FMS) is crucial and should begin in early childhood. As of now, several early childhood educators in Indonesia, particularly in West Java, think that incorporating playground games into the classroom curriculum is the best course of action for raising children’s FMS. This study aimed to present statistics on FMS findings for early childhood who have incorporated physical activity into the curriculum and to demonstrate that these results are still in conflict with teachers’ beliefs. Ex post facto research was applied to one of the early childhood education pilot programs in West Java, Indonesia, including a total of 30 kids. This school’s long-standing intervention involves giving children 30 minutes of structured playtime and 30 minutes of unstructured playtime at the start of each learning period. The Test of Gross Motor Development-2 (TGMD-2) was used to measure FMS. The study’s findings showed that both boys’ and girls’ FMS in both locomotor and manipulating components of the movement were very lacking and inversely proportional to teachers’ belief who believe that this activity will improve children’s motor skills. It is recommended that physical education specialists accompany both structured and unstructured play programs conducted on school playgrounds so that the early childhood education curriculum's programs are properly validated to raise children's FMS following Developmentally Appropriate Practice (DAP).

Abstract

Background Problems: The proliferation of diverse teaching methodologies underscores the evolving nature of pedagogical practices. Despite this trend, conventional instructional models persist in physical education and health curricula, with many educators continuing to employ traditional approaches. These conventional models limit student engagement and foster a sense of monotony within the learning environment. Conversely, effective physical education hinges on interactive communication, wherein student involvement and enjoyment serve as catalysts for positive motivation and enhanced learning outcomes. Research Objectives: The research aims to determine the enjoyment of students learning physical education using the project-based learning model. Methods: The experimental method was applied with a randomised control-group pretest-posttest design. The population consisted of 600 students from a junior school in Bandung City. The sample was selected using the simple random sampling technique. The enjoyment of student learning questionnaire, which has a reliability value of 0.942. Data were analysed for normality using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and homogeneity using the Levene test; after that, the paired test and independent sample t test were carried out. Findings/Results: The result shows that the project-based learning model provides a better influence than conventional learning, especially in the enjoyment of learning aspect, with t = 17.622 and sig = 0.000. Conclusion: The conclusions of this study indicate that employing a project-based learning paradigm centered on fostering enjoyment in the learning process represents a novel advancement in physical education curricula. Emphasising the role of enjoyment in learning, the project-based learning framework offers a fresh perspective on physical education programmes, enabling educators to facilitate more impactful instructional experiences compared to conventional methodologies.

Abstract

Background: Sports values arise because of sports activities. These values have a positive impact on personal development. If physical education at school incorporates sports values, it becomes extremely significant. Research Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of sports values in physical education. Methods: This research employed a quantitative descriptive method and was conducted at a high school in Bandung City. The participants were all school students, totaling 425 students, consisting of 193 male and 232 female students aged 15–17 years. The students completed the questionnaire in approximately 15 minutes. The study used a questionnaire to measure physical education sports values, specifically the Youth Sport Values Questionnaire-2 (YSVQ-2). Data analysis was performed using the SPSS program. We conducted statistical analysis and additional testing to investigate differences in the obtained means. Findings/Results: The research findings highlight a substantial disparity in average scores among sports values, with moral values emerging as the highest. This underscores the pivotal role of physical education in fostering moral development, achieved through active participation in game scenarios and facilitated by appropriate teaching methodologies. However, the successful internalisation of sports values and the holistic development of students extend beyond the confines of the classroom, involving significant contributions from parents and the broader environment. These external factors play a crucial role in shaping students' personalities, both within and outside the school environment. Conclusion: Future research endeavours should focus on designing and implementing structured and systematic sports values programmes to further enhance our understanding and implementation of sports values in physical education. These programmes should provide students with tangible opportunities to objectively observe and engage with sports values, thereby fostering their integration into both educational settings and the wider community.

Abstract

Background Problems: Motivation and academic learning time are the most important factors for students to achieve their learning goals. Research Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of the TGfU learning model on students' motivation and academic learning time (ALT). Methods: This type of research used the experimental method by using a control class and an experimental class, with research design using a randomised control group pre-test and post-test. The population of this study consisted of vocational high school students who took physical education subjects. The sample was randomly selected with a total of 68 students from 2 classes, with 34 students per class. The experimental (treatment) class used the TGfU learning model with student-centred approaches, strategies, and games. Meanwhile, the control class used the cooperative model, and the approach used was the student-centred approach. The research instruments were pre-test and post-test questionnaire instruments to measure students' learning motivation and systematic observation through duration recording techniques using observation sheets by paying attention to four categories of activities in physical education learning, namely management (M), learning activities (A), instructional (I), and waiting (W). The pre-test and post-test data analysis techniques were analysed using a homogeneity test, a normality test, and a Mann-Whitney test using SPSS version 25. Finding/Result: This study showed significant differences between the control and experimental classes in learning motivation, particularly in intrinsic motivation, identified regulation, and amotivation, with the TGfU approach exerting a significant effect. However, there was no significant difference between the Introjected Regulation and External Regulation categories. In addition, TGfU also improved academic learning time (ALT) and engagement in learning activities (A), but the control class was superior in waiting (W). Conclusion: These findings suggest that TGfU encourages students' active participation and extends overall learning time. Future research could investigate this by using in-depth interviews to elaborate on the factors underlying motivation and student participation through the implementation of TGfU models.

Abstract

Background Problems: In recent decades, physical education teacher job satisfaction has become a topic of interest in academic literature. The important role of physical education teachers' job satisfaction in the quality of teaching and its potential to influence student achievement have attracted attention. Research Objectives: This study aims to comprehensively analyse the level of job satisfaction among physical education teachers through a systematic review of the existing literature. Methods: We selected articles containing information on this topic from two databases (Scopus and Web of Science). We conducted the search according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. After the exclusion criteria, only 26 articles were categorized, all published between 2014 and 2023. Findings/Results: This research reveals that physical education teachers’ job satisfaction has been investigated in 13 countries, with Turkey, the United States, and Greece being the main focus. Although the majority of physical education teachers expressed high levels of satisfaction, significant differences in satisfaction levels emerged between them. For example, in Slovakia and Poland, satisfaction levels were relatively low. The findings underline that administrative support, work-life balance, and economic considerations are key factors that influence physical education teachers’ job satisfaction. However, in this context, money and rewards, working conditions, and the availability of resources also play an important role in determining teacher satisfaction. Conclusion: The findings from this study highlight the need for a deeper understanding of the diverse factors impacting job satisfaction among physical education instructors. We can develop more effective policies and practices to improve teachers’ well-being and performance at both local and global levels by understanding these nuances. We suggest further investigations into job satisfaction among physical education teachers in the Asian region, particularly focusing on Southeast Asia. Additionally, exploring variables such as leadership, self-efficacy, school climate, and culture in future research can offer deeper insights into the determinants of job satisfaction.

Abstract

Background Problems: Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) is still a challenge for Physical Education (PE) teachers. Teachers are still weak in applying the concept of TGfU to learning and lacking in improving motor skills, so it requires a study to apply the model of TGfU based on the characteristics of the school, the abilities of the students, and the ease of application by the teacher. Research Objectives: The study aims to test the use of the TGfU model using Kasti games to stimulate elementary school students' motor skills. Methods: The research design uses pre-expression with one-group pretest and posttest designs involving 24 students. The experiment implemented field games modified according to the TGfU's concepts and steps. The experiment conducted five meetings with a duration of 80 minutes each. Data collection was done using the Test of Gross Motor Development-2 (TGMD-2) and analysed using descriptive, quantitative, and different tests. Findings/Results: Based on the results of the statistical analysis, it shows that there has been a significant increase in students’ motor skills stimulated by applying learning with the TGfU model and using the Kasti game. Conclusion: The implementation of the TGfU model with the Kasti game approach can be used as an approach to stimulate students' motor skills. Further studies are needed to enhance the potential of TGfU in encouraging teachers to organise PE teaching according to the implemented curriculum, with the aim of encouraging students to actively participate in sports and learn motor skills.
