Abstract

Research Background: Aerobic endurance is important in soccer because the game requires high-intensity activity with quick recovery. However, training at the school level is often not based on a balanced scientific approach. Research Objectives: This study aims to analyze and compare the effects of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and the Game-Based Approach on aerobic endurance. Method: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group. The sample consisted of 20 students participating in a soccer extracurricular program, divided into two groups and trained for 12 sessions. Aerobic endurance was measured using the Bleep test. Data were analyzed using paired and independent sample t-tests (α = 0.05). Results: Both training methods significantly improved aerobic endurance (p < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion: HIIT and the Game-Based Approach are equally effective in improving aerobic endurance and can be applied based on students’ needs and characteristics.

Abstract

Research Problems: Basketball requires good speed and agility to support movement and quick direction changes. However, many school-level athletes do not yet have specific training programs to improve these abilities. Research Objectives: This study aims to examine the effect of zig-zag run training on speed and agility in basketball players. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The sample consisted of 15 students participating in basketball extracurricular activities. The training program was conducted for six weeks. The instruments used were the Illinois Agility Test and the 30-meter sprint test. Results: Agility improved from 9.01 seconds to 8.41 seconds, and 30-meter sprint time improved from 7.67 seconds to 5.98 seconds. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Zig-zag run training is effective in improving speed and agility and can be used as an alternative training method for school-level basketball athletes.

Abstract

Research Problems: Coaches play a crucial role in nurturing athletes' creativity, particularly in the context of Pencak Silat martial arts, which remains understudied. Research Objectives: Given the pivotal role of coaches in shaping athletes' creativity, this research seeks to examine how coaches can facilitate the development of creativity in Pencak Silat athletes, particularly in the sparring category. Methods: This study employed a qualitative method, with data collection conducted through semi-structured interviews involving four knowledgeable Pencak Silat experts as information sources. Results: The study findings demonstrate that the creativity of Pencak Silat athletes can be cultivated through the innovative resources provided by their coach. A key facet of coach creativity lies in their ability to adapt and evolve with changing times. Additionally, this research confirms that effective coaching involves providing athletes with a diverse array of tools while still allowing them the freedom to explore their problem-solving skills. Moreover, it underscores the importance of instilling creativity from an early age as a means of shaping the creativity of Pencak Silat athletes. Conclusion: This research leads to the conclusion that coaches stand as the most pivotal resource in fostering the creativity of Pencak Silat athletes. Achieving this entails designing training that encourages athletes to express their creativity, with the initiation of such simulations commencing from a young age.

Abstract

Research Background: The development of critical thinking skills is a central goal of 21st-century education and is emphasized in Indonesia’s Independent Curriculum. However, Physical Education (PE) in many elementary schools remains teacher-centred, limiting students’ opportunities for higher-order thinking. Research Objectives: This study examines the effectiveness of differentiated instruction integrated with slow-motion video and task cards in enhancing students’ critical thinking skills in Physical Education. Methods: A quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design was employed, involving 46 fifth-grade students selected through cluster random sampling. Participants were assigned to experimental and control groups. Critical thinking was measured using a validated 17-item questionnaire. The intervention, conducted over four sessions, combined slow-motion video analysis of basic basketball movements with differentiated task cards tailored to students’ readiness levels. Results: Results indicated a significant improvement in the experimental group (67.87 to 78.39) compared to the control group (68.78 to 71.13). Statistical analysis showed a significant difference (p < 0.05) with a large effect size (Cohen’s d ≈ 1.27). Conclusion: These findings suggest that integrating visual media with differentiated tasks effectively promotes student-centred learning and enhances critical thinking in PE.
