Abstract

Advancements and modernizations introduced into the educational and pedagogical systems have significantly impacted teaching processes and how subjects are presented and explained to students. The focus has shifted to how learners interact with the material they need to learn, providing sufficient opportunities for learning and granting them freedom and self-confidence to achieve learning objectives. The research problem stems from the researcher's experience as a lecturer in the College of Physical Education and Sports Science, particularly in teaching basketball. She observed that some instructors were deficient in using the most effective teaching methods. The researcher formulated her research question based on these observations: "What is the effectiveness of using kinesthetic teaching methods by basketball instructors in practical lessons from the perspective of their students?". The study aimed to adapt a questionnaire on "Kinesthetic Teaching Style" for basketball instructors in practical lessons from the perspective of their students and to examine the responses of second-year students at the College of Physical Education and Sports Science, Al-Mustansiriyah University. The research population included all second-year students at the College of Physical Education and Sports Science, Al-Mustansiriyah University, totaling 195 students. The researcher decided to include the entire population (100%) and then distributed the research sample into three sub-samples (exploratory, adaptation, and application). The researcher arrived at several conclusions, the most important of which include: the necessity for the subject teacher to record all errors and issues related to the lesson for the purpose of avoiding them in the future. It is essential for the teacher to assist students in practical lessons to perform skills through repetition more than once to reinforce the skill. It is crucial for the teacher to deeply investigate the reasons leading to the students' failure to perform the required skills. The researcher also made several recommendations, including the necessity for the subject teacher to document all occurrences in the lesson, including errors and related matters, to prevent them in the future. and this achieves one of the sustainable development goals of the United Nations in Iraq which is (Quality Education).
