The effect of an educational program that combines the total and partial method using aids in learning freestyle swimming skills for beginners

Abstract

The researchers indicated that one of the most important goals sought by the teacher and coach is to improve the quality of the exercise by following different methods, and that completion of the learning process can be attributed to the effective design of the exercise. Among the methods chosen by the researcher is the total and partial method in learning free swimming skills through interference. Between them. The problem of the research is the difficulty of learning freestyle swimming skills. This is due to the lack of use of appropriate methods for teaching freestyle swimming skills, especially since these ages have a more difficult task in education. These are older ages for young people because they have not learned the skill since childhood, so they are often afraid of the new water environment. If there is no method that enables him to break the barrier of fear and learn to swim, then the researcher decided to study this problem by developing an educational program that combines the total and partial methods using methods that help in learning freestyle swimming skills for beginners. The objectives of the research: Preparing an educational program by interfering the total and partial method using aids in learning freestyle swimming skills for beginners, identifying the effect of the educational program by interfering the total and partial method using aids in learning freestyle swimming skills for beginners. The researchers used the experimental method by designing a single experimental group with pre- and post-measurement, and the research population and sample were determined from beginners aged 20-25 years who were enrolled in swimming courses at Al-Mas Swimming Pool - Holy Karbala Governorate. The researchers concluded that the educational program, which combined the total and partial methods, had a positive role in learning freestyle swimming skills.
