The effectiveness of using flipped classroom strategy in learning some swimming basic skills among physical education students

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the effectiveness of using flipped classroom strategy in learning some swimming basic skills among physical education students. To achieve that, the study was conducted on a purposive sample consisting of (30) physical education students at PTU- Khadoorie university who were registered in swimming course 2 in the summer semester (2022-2023AD). The sample was divided equally and randomly into two groups including an experimental group (n= 15) and a control group (n= 15). The researchers used the quasi- experimental approach in its pre and post measurements method. To analyze data, SPSS was used and the level of significance was set at 0.05. The results of the study revealed that there were statistically significant differences between the pre and post measurements for all of swimming basic skills of the experimental group in favor of the post tests. Also, there were statistically significant differences in the post measurements for all of swimming basic skills between the experimental and control groups in favor of the experimental group. The study recommends that it is important to use the flipped classroom strategy in learning the basic skills of different sports in practical courses for the physical education students.
