The effectiveness of an educational curriculum based on the realistic learning model in the skills of passing and shooting - basketball for female students

Abstract

The research aims to prepare an educational curriculum based on a realistic learning model for the skills of handling and shooting basketball for female students, and to identify the effectiveness of an educational curriculum based on a realistic learning model for the skills of handling and shooting basketball for female students. The researcher hypothesized (there were statistically significant differences between the results of the pre- and post-tests for the control and experimental research groups in the skills of handling and shooting with a basketball for female students) and (there were statistically significant differences between the results of the post-tests between the two research groups, the control and the experimental, in the skills of handling and shooting with a basketball for female students). The research sample represented first-year students at the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences for Girls - University of Baghdad, and the researcher concluded (there are significant differences between the results of the pre- and post-tests for the control and experimental groups, in favor of the post-tests) and (there are significant differences between the control and experimental groups in the results of the post-tests, in favor of the experimental group) The researcher recommends the necessity of using the educational curriculum based on the realistic learning model in learning the two selected skills because of its positive impact.
