The effect of using the generative learning strategy on learning some handball skills for students in the first stage of basic education in Al-Azhar institutes

The effect of generative learning strategy on handball skills performance among primary school students

The current study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the generative learning strategy in developing handball skills performance among primary school students. A random sample of sixth grade primary school students was selected at Badr Al-Azhari Complex Institute in Sohag Governorate for the academic year 2023/2024.

The research followed the experimental approach by dividing the sample into two groups: experimental and control. The experimental group received training on handball skills using the generative learning strategy, while the control group received traditional training.

The results of the study showed that the training program based on the generative learning strategy had a positive and tangible effect on students' performance in handball motor skills compared to students who received traditional training.

Importance of the study:

Confirming the effectiveness of the strategy: The results support the importance of integrating active learning strategies such as generative learning into sports training programs.

Performance development: This strategy contributes to improving students' performance in basic handball motor skills.

Recommendations for practitioners: The study encourages teachers and coaches to adopt innovative teaching strategies to enhance student learning.
Limitations and Future Directions:

Despite the importance of the results, the study has some limitations such as the limited sample size and the type of skills taught. Therefore, future studies are recommended on a larger sample and a wider range of motor skills. The effectiveness of the generative learning strategy can also be compared with other strategies.
