The effect of skill exercises using the reciprocal method on learning the skills of handling and scoring in indoor soccer for students of Al-Safi Al-Najfi High School

Abstract

The research aims to identify the effect of using skill exercises using the reciprocal method in learning some basic skills in futsal. The research problem was represented by the poor level of students in some basic skills in futsal due to the lack of use of modern teaching methods based on interaction and participation. The research hypotheses were represented by the presence of statistically significant differences between the results of the pre- and post-tests of the experimental group that used skill exercises using the reciprocal method, in favor of the post-test. The researcher used the experimental method with a two-group equivalent design. The research sample consisted of (18) students from Al-Safi Al-Najfi Secondary School, randomly selected. The research results showed that the use of exercises using the reciprocal method contributed effectively to improving the level of learning among students in basic skills in futsal compared to the traditional method. Based on the results, the researcher recommends the necessity of adopting the reciprocal method in teaching physical education in secondary schools, as it allows for effective student participation and enhances their ability to learn independently and   collaboratively
