The effectiveness of the R.E.A.C.T strategy in learning and acquiring skill performance In the discus throwing event

Abstract

The researcher addressed the importance of the R.E.A.C.T strategy due to the importance of this type of strategy, which is one of the active learning strategies that go back to the principle of constructivist theory and is represented in its basic reliance on the extent of scientific interaction between learners in light of the principles of constructive learning, in addition to the extent of its reliance on linking new scientific knowledge to the learner's previous knowledge in real life, so it helps in establishing relationships between concepts and improving learning on skills clearly and easily. It was explained that this strategy has a close connection through students' learning of skill performance, so it was important to search for means that help in teaching skills, and among these means is learning using the R.E.A.C.T strategy to advance students' abilities, which is reflected in their skill performance more effectively and influentially. The researcher used the experimental method by designing two equivalent groups (experimental and control The researcher chose the research sample intentionally, as the research sample was represented by students of the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, University of Wasit, represented by Section (C, D), as the number of students for each section was (18) students equally to represent the research sample. The main experiment took (8) weeks and the results were processed using the statistical package ((SPSS

And with the statistical laws (arithmetic mean - standard deviation - Chi-square 2 - Pearson simple correlation coefficient - T-test), the researcher implemented the steps of the strategy that he prepared in the main part of the educational unit, and the most important thing that the researcher concluded is that the strategy contributed significantly to student learning, while the researcher recommended using this strategy because it has an effect on developing the skill performance of students.
