Learning effects during physical education (PE) classes is largely dependent on the educational model used. To date most classes in the country adopt the technical approach model, which neglects learning motives and discourages continued participation in sporting activities due to its monotonous nature. The teaching games for understanding (TGfU) model has a potentially important role to play in raising cognitive, emotional, and technical learning effects of students. Competitive games can be a useful way to introduce the curriculum to students, while imparting rules and strategies during play can improve learning motivation as well as cognitive and decision-making skills. Besides improving emotional communication through participation in group activities, students will be motivated to seek out peers and instructors regarding deficiencies in technical aspects of the exercise. We seek to investigate the effects of the TGfU approach on learning effects, with review of the literature demonstrating evidence for this model providing a worthy consideration for physical educators to diversify their teaching methods. |
