The Effect of the Self-Regulated Method on Learning the High Dribbling (Fast) Skill Basketball for First-Year Intermediate Students

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to prepare educational units according to the self-regulated method to learn the high (fast) dribbling skill in basketball and to identify its effect for first-year middle school students. The researchers assumed that there is an effect of the educational units according to the self-regulated method in learning the high (fast) dribbling skill in basketball for students. There are statistically significant differences in favor of the experimental group. The researchers used the experimental method in the manner of two equal groups. The researchers identified the population as students from Al-Naqa Secondary School for Boys, one of the schools of the Diyala Education Directorate for the academic year 2023-2024. They numbered (372) students for all grades in it, and the researchers chose the sample from students. The first grade, which has a number of (86) students and a percentage of (24.19%), was selected from Division (A) so that the sample number was (40) students and a percentage of (46.511%). They were divided into an experimental group and a control group represented by (20) students for each group. And (5) students for the exploratory experiment from the research community. The study concluded that the use of the self-regulated method had a direct impact on the students’ learning of the high (fast) skill of dribbling basketball for students.
