The goal of the study was to contrast the effects that a Cooperative Learning implementation in Physical Education can produce in two different Educational stages: Primary and Secondary Education. A total of 179 students agreed to participate: 96 (44 boys, 52 girls) were enrolled in four Year 7 Primary Education groups (11.37 ± 0.89 years) and 83 students (38 boys, 45 girls) were enrolled in three Year 11 Secondary Education groups (15.42 ± 1.12 years). Convenience sampling was used. All groups experienced three consecutive learning units (23 sessions). At post-test, motivation increased significantly in the two groups (p = 0.031, p = 0.029), while social interaction only in the Secondary Education group (p = 0.024), and a significant difference between groups was also obtained in the post-test (p = 0.034). All effect sizes exceed the value of 0.87, which is considered large. Qualitative data showed that the teacher highlighted the importance of cooperation in Physical Education in order to promote respect for others and joint thinking in Primary Education.

The present research had two complementary aims: (a) to examine the associations between cooperative learning (CL) and emotional intelligence (EI) in physical education (PE) and (b) to explore and compare the use of CL in PE in primary education (PED), secondary education (SED) and baccalaureate (BA). A total of 1332 students (682 males, 650 females) took part in the study. All participants were aged between 10 and 20 years old (M = 13.09; SD = 2.47) and belonged to 13 different schools in Southwest Spain. They completed the cooperative learning questionnaire (CLQ), referring to the PE classes, in addition to the emotional intelligence questionnaire in physical education (EIQPE). Positive and significant associations were found between CL and EI in all school stages. In addition, moderately strong associations were uncovered between CL and the different dimensions of EI: emotional recognition, emotional control and regulation and emotional empathy. Participants belonging to classrooms with larger cooperation indices presented higher levels of EI. Results also highlighted a greater use of CL in PE classes during the PED stage in comparison to the SED and BA stages. These outcomes are discussed in light of the existing literature and methodological implications are derived for teaching PE. The use of CL in PE is recommended because of its positive contribution to the affective domain through IE. This will be especially important during the SED and BA stages, where lower rates of CL were observed.

In this study, it is aimed to analyze attitudes of obese students in high school towards physical education according to some variables. 74 secondary education student, 45 of them are girls and 29 boys who studied at three different Anatolian High Schools in the city of Niğde in the 2016-2017 academic year, have been participated in this study. As data collection tool, Physical Education attitude scale for secondary education students developed by Güllü and Güçlü (2009) has been used and coefficient of consistence (Cronbach Alpha) is 0,94. SPSS 23.0 packaged software has been used for assesing the result. Kolmogorov – Smirnov Test have been done regarding whether the data showed normal distribution or not and Kurtosis and Skewness values have been studied. Independent Sample T Test has been used to test the mean difference significance belonging to two group independent variables in the study. One Way ANOVA Test has been used to test the mean differences significence when the number of groups is more than two. At the end of the study, all of the attitude scores belonging to variables have been found high and it has been established that obese high school students’ attitudes towards Physical Education show statictically significant difference, according to gender, in favor of boys (p<0,05). Accordingly, it has been determined that students’ cognitive attitudes acording to obesity level for Physical Education show difference in favor of second grade obese students (p<0,05) and no significent difference found in students’ affective and behavioural attitudes (p>0,05). It has been identified that high school students’ attitudes towards Physical Education show no statistically significant difference according to their calass level variable and time variable which they spent with their communication instruments (p>0,05) As a result, when considering obese students’ positive attitudes towards physical education and sports, in view of obtained findings, it is possible to say that physical education and sports may contribute to increase the participation of obese students and thus make them become healthy individuals.Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. ÖzetBu araştırmada, lise düzeyinde öğrenim gören obez öğrencilerin beden eğitimi dersine yönelik tutumlarının bazı değişkenlere göre incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmaya 2016-2017 eğitim-öğretim yılında Niğde ilinde bulunan üç ayrı Anadolu Lisesi'nde öğrenim gören 45 kız ve 29 erkek olmak üzere toplam 74 lise öğrencisi katılmıştır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak Güllü ve Güçlü (2009) tarafından geliştirilen "Ortaöğretim Öğrencileri İçin Beden Eğitimi Dersi Tutum Ölçeği Kullanılmış olup ölçeğin iç tutarlılık katsayısı 0.94 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde SPSS 23.0 paket programı kullanılmıştır. Verilerin normal dağılım gösterip göstermediğine ilişkin Kolmogorov-Smirnov Testi yapılmış, Kurtosis ve Skewness değerleri incelenmiştir. Araştırmadaki iki gruplu bağımsız değişkenlere ait ortalama farkların anlamlılığını test etmek için parametrik hipotez testlerinden Independent Sample t testi kullanılmıştır. Grup sayısının ikiden fazla olduğu durumlarda gruplar arasındaki ortalama farklarının anlamlılığını test etmek için ise, One Way ANOVA testi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonunda, değişkenlere ait tutum puanlarının hepsi yüksek bulunmuş olup, liselerde öğrenim gören obez öğrencilerin beden eğitimi dersine yönelik tutumlarının cinsiyete göre istatistiksel olarak erkekler lehine anlamlı farklılık gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir (p<0.05). Benzer şekilde öğrencilerin beden eğitimi dersine yönelik obezite düzeyine göre bilişsel tutumlarının 2. sınıf obez öğrenciler lehine anlamlı farklılık gösterdiği belirlenmiş olup (p<0.05), duyuşsal ve davranışsal tutumlarında anlamlı farklılık bulunmamıştır (p>0.05). Öğrencilerin beden eğitimi dersine yönelik tutumlarının öğrenim gördükleri sınıf düzeyine  ve iletişim araçları ile geçirdileri süre değişkenine göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık göstermediği belirlenmiştir (p>0.05). Sonuç olarak, obez öğrecilerin beden eğitimi ve spor derslerine karşı tutumlarının olumlu olduğu göz önünde bulundurulduğunda elde edilen bulguların beden eğitimi ve spor derslerinin obez öğrencilerin spora katılımının arttırılması ve dolayısıyla onların sağlıklı bireyler olmalarında önemli düzeyde katkısının olabileceğini söylemek mümkündür

Background: Jigsaw is a cooperative learning method in which students work together in small groups, helping one another towards a common goal. The aim of this research were to find out the different effect of Jigsaw cooperative learning method with conventional method in terms of anatomy learning achievement and retention. Method: Forty-nine students were randomly assigned into two groups, control group (n=24) and experimental group (n=25). A pretest was administered to all students before classes. The Jigsaw learning method was applied to the experimental group for one session. At the same day, control group was taking classes using the lecture-based learning method. At the end of session, all students were retested (post test) on subject. A retention test was administered 3 weeks after the post test. Mean scores were calculated for each test for the experimental and control groups, and the data obtained were analysed using the independent samples t-test.Results: No significant difference was determined between the Jigsaw and lecture based methods at pretest or post-test. The highest mean test score was observed in the post-test with the Jigsaw method. In the retention test, no significant difference between the Jigsaw and lecture-based methods. The highest mean retention test score was observed in the lecture-based method.Conclusion: The Jigsaw method is less effective than lecture-based method.

Abstract Background: Students should become familiar with spatial relationships around anatomical structures, not just their appearance and function. This is a challenge in traditional classrooms where students use 2D images of books and descriptive articles as a reference. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of VR training applied in anatomy training compared to conventional or 2D digital methods in the classroom.Method: Our quasi-experimental method used pre-test and post-test to measure academic achievement and technology acceptance questionnaires. A total of 92 fourth-year medical students were from three classes. They were randomly divided into three groups: 1) Traditional education group and 2) Virtual Reality education group 3) E-learning group (based on Moodle). To examine learning performance, the measurement tools included pre-test and post-test of anatomy and technology acceptance questionnaire.Result: The results showed that students who took anatomy courses in VR showed significantly higher academic achievement than those who taught through traditional methods. There was also a significant difference between E-learning and traditional groups and no significant difference was observed between E-learning and VR groups.Conclusion: The present study provides empirical evidence for the use of VR in anatomy education. In addition, it explains how to create and implement a VR-based class for formal educational purposes.
