Abstract

Abstract This study deals with the value of a general basic skills curriculum for Freshman women of low motor ability. A group of these students received instruction in the special curriculum previous to entering the regular service program. Follow-up procedures included testing of motor ability after the special instruction, attitude toward physical education throughout the physical education experience, and skill and knowledge achieved at the end of a beginning course in badminton, bowling, or folk dancing. When this group is compared to a matched group, results indicate that the instruction was effective in improving general motor ability and attitude toward physical education, and in gaining skill and knowledge in specific activities.
