Abstract
Randomization stimulation strategy is one of the strategies that encourage learners to think by making connections between two or more images that may initially appear to have no relationship. Here, learners are required to think and search for the link or relationship between the images. The research problem lies in the students' lack of proficiency in passing the volleyball from above and below, attributed by the researchers to the limited use of modern strategies that engage learners actively, as well as the learners' feelings of boredom. Therefore, the research aims to prepare instructional units using the randomization stimulation strategy for learning the skill of passing the volleyball from above and below, in addition to investigating the impact of the randomization stimulation strategy on learning the studied skill. The researchers employed an experimental approach with two groups, a control group and an experimental group, using both pre-test and post-test assessments with random selection. The study involved 50 female students from the second intermediate grade out of a total of 72 students, drawn from two classes, (B) and (C). The research tools included skill tests for both passing from above and passing from below. After conducting the pre-tests, eight instructional units were implemented using the randomization stimulation strategy, with an average of four instructional units for each skill. The duration of each instructional unit was 45 minutes. Subsequently, post-tests were administered, and the most significant findings indicated that the randomization stimulation strategy had a positive impact on learning both passing skills from above and below in volleyball. Additionally, the group that utilized the randomization stimulation strategy outperformed the group that used the conventional approach in learning the studied skills, and this achieves one of the sustainable development goals of the United Nations in Iraq which is (Quality Education). The researchers recommended that the study's results be considered as a starting point for new research projects in the field of volleyball and other sports. They also suggested utilizing the study's findings for teaching the skill of passing from above and below using the randomization stimulation strategy, given its demonstrated effectiveness in the educational process. Furthermore, they encouraged the exploration of new strategies in this regard.
