Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the extent to which the use of fins and zoomers affects the improvement of 50-meter backstroke swimming speed among athletes of the Tri Cakti Semesta Semarang Club. A quantitative approach with a two-group pretest-posttest design was used. Twenty athletes were selected as participants and divided into two groups: the first group trained using fins, while the second group trained with zoomers. Data were collected through swimming speed tests conducted before and after 16 training sessions. The results were analyzed using Paired Samples T-Tests and Independent Samples T-Tests. The findings showed that both fins and zoomers significantly improved athletes' 50-meter backstroke swimming performance, with an average increase of 0.69 seconds and 0.72 seconds, respectively. However, a comparative analysis did not show a significant difference between the two training methods. In conclusion, both tools can be considered equally effective as training variations to support the improvement of backstroke swimming performance.

Abstract

Background: Bullying is a persistent issue in primary education, impacting children’s physical, emotional, and social development. Despite efforts to create positive school environments, bullying continues in various forms, including physical, psychological, and cyberbullying. Many prevention programs are reactive rather than proactive, focusing on punishment instead of fostering positive behavior from an early age. Objective: This study aims to develop and evaluate a physical education (PE) based bullying prevention model for primary school students. The model integrates physical activity with social-emotional learning (SEL) to promote a safer, inclusive school environment. Methods: A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted to examine research on PE based bullying prevention interventions. Studies were selected based on their focus on primary school students, PE, and bullying behaviors. The review followed the PRISMA framework for methodological rigor. Results: The SLR highlights the effectiveness of PE in reducing bullying by promoting positive social behaviors. Key factors include the role of PE teachers, cooperative learning strategies, and SEL integration. Well-structured PE interventions were found to reduce bullying and enhance social skills like empathy and conflict resolution. However, few studies provided a comprehensive PE-based bullying prevention model. Conclusion: This study proposes a PE-based bullying prevention model that integrates physical activity with SEL, fostering a safe and inclusive learning environment. Further research is needed to assess its long-term impact and applicability.

Abstract

Background: Cardiorespiratory capacity (CRF) is crucial for physical and cognitive health in children and adolescents. However, declines in CRF due to sedentary lifestyles highlight the need for effective interventions in school-based physical education (PE) programs. Traditional PE methods often fail to engage students sufficiently. Objective: This systematic literature review (SLR) evaluates the effectiveness of integrating educational games into physical fitness training, comparing it with traditional high-intensity interval training (HIIT) for improving CRF in students. Methods: A systematic search across Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar identified experimental and quasi-experimental studies from the last 10 years. Studies included were those that integrated educational games into fitness programs and measured CRF outcomes. Results: HIIT consistently improved CRF, particularly VO₂ max and aerobic performance. Game-based interventions showed smaller but significant improvements, primarily through enhanced engagement and motivation. Combining game elements with HIIT enhanced both physiological and behavioral outcomes. Conclusion: HIIT and game-based interventions offer complementary benefits for improving CRF. HIIT provides significant physiological gains, while educational games foster long-term participation. A combined approach could optimize both fitness and engagement in PE programs. Further research is needed to refine intervention parameters and assess long-term outcomes.
