Abstract(s)
The eminent purpose of physical education (PE) is to promote physical fitness, health, and overall well-being among individuals. It aims to develop motor skills, improve cognitive functions, and instill a lifelong appreciation for an active and healthy lifestyle. Physical education also fosters social skills, teamwork, and discipline, contributing to the holistic development of individuals. The study aimed to assess the impact of a hybrid teaching model, integrating elements from the Sport Education Model (SEM) and Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU), on the performance and motivation of students during basketball lessons. Eighteen adolescents (9 girls and 8 boys) aged 15-17 years (mean ± SD: 15.67 ± 0.69 years) participated in the study. Participants engaged in basketball physical education classes twice a week, incorporating principles and attributes from both TGfU and SEM. Motivation and performance (GP) were evaluated before and after basketball sessions. The students' motivation was assessed using the Attitude Questionnaire of Students towards PE, and the performance was measured using the Game Performance Assessment Instrument. The results showed significant improvements in students' GP, but no differences in motivation was found at the end of the instructional unit. However, it was discovered that students enjoyed and appreciated physical education (PE), demonstrating a favorable attitude towards the subject. A hybrid teaching model with principles based on TGfU and SEM seems to be an appropriate approach to enhance students' game understanding, decision-making and overall GP (game skills, both technical and tactical). Attributes and principles such as simulating a sports season and student-centered learning situations that consider individual needs, seems to be important to develop students' awareness of attributing meaning to their actions, resulting in improved GP. The findings could be useful to teachers, coaches and researchers contributing to the development of teaching strategies to empower the PE classes.
