Abstract

The most important element of the education system is education itself, the process through which student behaviours are acquired. One of the most crucial and effective elements in this learning process is feedback. Feedback to students is at the centre of much research that discusses interaction between student and teacher behaviour. In physical education and sports lessons, it is particularly important for the student to be given proper feedback, because it will affect skill learning. With this in mind, the current research was conducted in order to evaluate the types and ratios of feedback teachers use in their physical education classes. A 5-point likert-type measuring instrument, which was adapted by the researcher and consisted of 35 questions, was used in the research. Test-retest value of the scale was found to be .84; Cronbach alpha internal consistency value (α) was found to be .81. In the data analysis, frequencies, percentages, and t test were used, and the significance level was determined as 0.05. The results show that in the students' evaluation, feedback is used on a large scale in physical education and sports lessons. No significant difference was found when the teachers' feedback usage rates were compared according to the gender variable of the students or the gender of the teachers (p> 0.05). According to the class variable, the difference between the scores of the 8th and 9th grade students was significantly in favour of the 8th grade students (p <0.05). Regarding whether lessons took place in a gym or not, the difference between the scores of students studying at the gym and those not studying at the gym was found to be significantly in favour of the group not studying at the gym (p <0.05).

Highlights

  • Individuals who are trained for behavioural change are expected to have behavioural changes in the desired direction

  • In Sivas province centre, primary education 2nd, 8th and 9th grade students supported by the Ministry of National Education were defined as the universe, each class was accepted as a layer, and 811 students were included in the stratified sampling method

  • The developed scale was first discussed with the teachers, a pool of questions was created and the questions in the pool were limited by experts in the field

Summary

Introduction

Individuals who are trained for behavioural change are expected to have behavioural changes in the desired direction. The most crucial element of the education system is education itself, which is a process that students acquire. The main aim of a sports student who tries to actualise the learning process is to reduce the frequency of making wrong movements and increase the frequency of making correct movements. It is necessary for the individual to know the mistakes he has made and to be informed about how to correct them; that is, the movement of the individual [37]. Doig [14] defines feedback as help for the individual learner to achieve the desired outcome according to certain criteria
