THE EFFECT OF KARPLUS STRATEGY ON LEARNING SOME BASIC SKILLS IN ARTISTIC GYMNASTICS FOR STUDENTS

Abstract

The study aimed to prepare an educational curriculum and identify its impact according to Karplus's strategy in instructing some of the skills of artistic gymnastics for students.  We hypothesized that there are statistically significant differences in the results of the pre-tests and post-tests for the control and experimental groups.  As for the second section of this study, it included the research methodology and its field procedures. We used the experimental method given its suitability to the nature of the research. The research community is represented by first-year students of the College of Physical Education at the University of Basra for the academic year 2021-2022.  The sample was chosen in an intentional manner and was randomly divided, using the draw method, into an experimental group and a control group. There follows a section that included the presentation, analysis and discussion of the results. The study also included conclusions and recommendations.
