Constructing and standardizing a student's tendency scale for the preferred teaching method among handball students

Abstract

The problem of the research was that the basic skills of the handball game do not develop in a way that is commensurate with the rapid development of the game, and the reason for this may be  rely on a specific method without researching the teaching methods that take into account the students’ inclinations to this method or that. The research aimed to construct and standardize  the measure of students' tendency to the preferred teaching method in learning some basic skills in handball. The research community was represented by the students of the second stage of the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences / Dhi Qar University for the academic year 2019-2020,  totaling (106) students, and the research community was divided into three groups, The first group includes (6) students representing the pilot study  sample, the second group includes (85) students representing the construction sample, and the third group includes (15) who are the application sample. After the scale was ready with its instructions and items, the researchers started applying it to the construction sample members, which numbered (85) electronically on the platform of the subject teacher through the social networking program (Telegram), on Monday,(8/6/2020) .The researchers concluded that there is a preference for students of the second stage for the cooperative and reciprocal method and self-examination in learning the basic skill of handball.
