Abstract

Physical Education, Sport and Health (PJOK) plays an important role in the holistic development of elementary school students, not only from the physical aspects but also mental, social, emotional children can also learn discipline, cooperation and also maintain health from an early age. However, the implementation and prioritization of this subject is often influenced by teachers' perceptions as the main implementers in the field. This study aims to explore the views of physical education teachers regarding the importance of physical education in primary schools as well as the factors that influence their perceptions and also to find out how physical education teachers interpret the urgency of physical education in supporting the motor, cognitive and social development of primary school-age children. The research method used qualitative. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with PJOK teachers from Plumbungan Elementary School. The results showed that the majority of PJOK teachers viewed physical education as a means to build physical fitness, motor skills, sportsmanship values, and student cooperation. However, several obstacles such as limited facilities, minimal time allocation, and lack of stakeholder support are challenges in optimizing learning. The implication of this study emphasizes the need to improve facilities, teacher training, and advocacy for the importance of PJOK in the school curriculum. This can be a reference for policy makers, schools, and teachers in strengthening physical education.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the use of traditional games in Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) learning as an effort to develop elementary school students' motor skills. Traditional games are considered relevant to the characteristics of elementary school students who tend to be active and enjoy playing, and are in line with the objectives of PJOK learning which not only emphasize physical aspects, but also social and emotional aspects. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques in the form of observation, interviews, and documentation. The subjects of the study were PJOK teachers and students at an elementary school. The results of the study showed that traditional games such as rope jumping, hide and seek, gobak sodor, and engklek. can improve students' gross motor skills, such as balance, agility, and coordination of movement. In addition, this activity also fosters cooperation, sportsmanship, and a spirit of togetherness among students. In conclusion, the use of traditional games in PJOK learning is very effective in developing elementary school students' motor aspects in a fun and contextual way. Therefore, teachers suggest integrating traditional games as an alternative active learning strategy that is appropriate to child development.

Abstract

Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) isone of the compulsory subjects taught at the primary and secondary education levels in Indonesia. This study aims to determine how Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PJOK) learning is implemented for students with physical disabilities (Tuna Daksa) at SLB Bukesra Aceh. This research used a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The data were analyzed using three steps: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The research sample consisted of two classroom teachers and two students with physical disabilities. The results showed that PJOK learning at SLB Bukesra Aceh was running fairly well and adapted to the students’ abilities, although it was not yet optimal. Teachers used demonstration, practice, lecture, and question-and-answer methods. Evaluation was based on students’ abilities without a written assessment format. The main obstacles found were that teachers did not come from a physical education background, sports facilities were still limited, and parental support was not yet optimal. Therefore, training for teachers, the addition of disability-friendly sports facilities, and greater parental involvement are needed to improve PJOK learning for students with physical disabilities.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of life skill-based Physical Education (PE) in improving students’ movement skills and social values. The research employed a quasi-experimental design using a pretest–posttest control group. Participants were 60 junior high school students in Merauke, divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received PE learning that integrated life skill elements such as cooperation, responsibility, and communication, while the control group followed conventional instruction. Data were collected through standardized movement skill tests and validated questionnaires on social values. The results showed a significant improvement in both movement skills and social values among students in the experimental group compared to the control group (p < 0.05). The findings indicate that incorporating life skills into PE lessons not only enhances physical performance but also develops students’ social competencies. This study suggests that life skill-based PE can serve as an effective approach to fostering holistic student development within the Merdeka Belajar curriculum framework. These findings provide practical guidance for physical education teachers in designing more effective learning activities to enhance students’ fundamental movement skills and social values.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the gap between the ideal goals of physical education in the curriculum and its actual practice at MI Walisongo Semarang. This issue is crucial since physical education in Islamic elementary schools often faces limitations in facilities, time allocation, and teacher competence. The research employed a qualitative approach with an intrinsic case study design, involving a physical education teacher, the school principal, and students as participants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation, and analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The findings reveal three main themes: (1) teachers’ adaptive practices amid limited resources, (2) reflective understanding of the goals of physical education, and (3) the integration of Islamic values within physical activities. Despite not having a sports education background, the teacher demonstrated creativity through modified tools, game-based learning, and contextual teaching strategies. Physical education activities not only fostered physical fitness but also strengthened students’ character and spirituality. The results reinforce Bourdieu’s theory of social practice regarding the interplay between agency and structure in education. Practically, this study highlights the importance of continuous professional development for non-specialist PE teachers and institutional support to enhance value-based physical education in Islamic schools. This study offers a unique contribution by depicting the dynamics of learning from the perspective of the non-linear teacher, which is the primary focus. Academically, the results of this research open up new discussion about adaptive pedagogy in the context of Islamic education with structural constraints.

Abstract

The limited understanding of students toward local cultural values and the lack of integration of cultural elements in physical education learning have become important issues in elementary and secondary schools. This study aims to analyze the process of internalizing local cultural values through ethnosport-based learning within the context of physical education. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through classroom observations, interviews with Physical Education (PJOK) teachers, and documentation studies of learning activities that utilized traditional games as learning media. The findings indicate that ethnosport-based learning is able to foster character values such as sportsmanship, cooperation, responsibility, and respect for local culture. The integration of ethnosport in physical education not only increases students’ participation in physical activities but also serves as an effective medium for instilling cultural and moral values. The implications of this study suggest that ethnosport-based physical education can become an effective learning strategy to enhance students’ active participation while strengthening cultural identity and character development, thereby supporting the implementation of the Pancasila Student Profile and the reinforcement of national character in the era of globalization.

Abstract

In general, Pencak Silat techniques include punches, kicks, grabs, throws, takedowns, locks, blocks, backhand strikes, scratches, thrusts, strikes, slashes, and jabs. (Gunawan. A, 2007). A physical component that plays a significant role in every sport, including Pencak Silat, is lower-body explosive power. Ankle weight training is an exercise designed to enhance the strength and performance of the lower-body muscles, performed by applying weight to the lower legs (Girsang & Hasibuan, 2012). The research was conducted at the IKSPI Kera Sakti Pencak Silat Academy in Timika, Papua. This was a pre-experimental study. The design was a one-group pretest-posttest design. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant effect of lower-body power training using the ankle-weight method on the straight-kick ability of athletes from the IKSPI Kera Sakti Timika, as evidenced by a pretest average score of 10.13, which increased in the posttest, with the average score for straight-kick ability reaching 15.20. The t-test results also show that the calculated t-value of 8.264 > the critical t-value of 1.7613 (df 14), with a significance level of p = 0.000 < 0.05. Based on the research results, it is concluded that “There is a significant effect of lower-body muscle power training using the Ankle Weight Method on straight-kick ability among athletes at the IKSPI Kera Sakti Timika.
