The interest in improving the educational process and its strategies has become a major priority for educational and educational institutions and many researchers, with the aim of facilitating the provision of information to learners and developing their skills. This requires moving away from relying on the teacher alone to provide information, and searching for modern strategies that shift the center of activity in the educational process from the teacher to the learner, as the learner is considered one of the main axes of the educational process. This is done through organized and planned behavioral movements aimed at achieving the desired goals, which is known as the strategy. Among these strategies, the cooperative inquiry strategy stands out, which contributes to achieving the previously specified goals. The aim of the research was to prepare educational units using the cooperative inquiry method in developing mental alertness and learning the shooting skills of jumping and ladder basketball for students. The researcher used the experimental method by designing two equivalent groups with a pre- and post-test, in order to suit the nature of the research. The research community was determined from fourth-year students in the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences at the University of Kufa for the academic year 2024-2025. The researcher concluded that the (cooperative inquiry) method had a clear impact on learning to perform the skills of peaceful shooting and jumping with a basketball for fourth-grade students. The method used also contributed to developing mental alertness among students.

Developing a measure of the spirit of challenge for junior basketball players, understanding the offensive performance, the spirit of challenge, some physiological variables, and physical and motor abilities of junior basketball players, understanding the relationship between offensive performance, the spirit of challenge, some physiological variables, and physical and motor abilities of junior basketball players, and predicting offensive performance based on the spirit of challenge, some physiological variables, and physical and motor abilities of junior basketball players. Due to the nature of the subject, the survey method, correlational relationships and prediction studies were used in the descriptive approach, and basketball players were identified as the research community. The study determined the players of the Iraqi Junior Basketball League, numbering (10) clubs, with (12) players from each club, with a total of (120) players for the 2023-2024 sports season. The sample for constructing the challenge spirit scale included (100) players, at a rate of (83.33%), and (10) players for the survey, at a rate of (8.33%). The application sample amounted to (48) players, at a rate of (40%). The scientific steps were followed to construct the challenge spirit scale, and the offensive performance tests, physiological variables and abilities were determined. To conduct relationships and extract the regression equation, physical and motor tests were applied to a sample of forty-eight players. Some of the results of the study are as follows: The possibility of predicting offensive performance in terms of the challenge spirit, some physiological variables, and physical and motor abilities of junior basketball players, and the existence of a relationship between Offensive performance and these factors, and the relationship between offensive performance and these factors. The study presented some of the following recommendations and conclusions: In the spirit of offensive performance tests and offensive performance tests

Regarding the study's goals and based on the researchers' observations as they are teachers in the college and those interested in the game, there is a fluctuation in the level of performance in some complex offensive skills represented by handling, tapping and shooting, as well as tapping, deception, shooting and other complex skills, as well as losing the ball during these skills and failing to shoot, and its causes may be weak in the relationship between the most important bio-kinetic abilities and complex offensive skills among fourth-year handball students. As for the objectives of the study, The goal of the study is to determine how fourth-year handball players' precision of the complex offensive performance relates to their most crucial biokinetic skills. Male and female students in the fourth stage of morning and evening studies at the University of Kufa's College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences make up the research community and its sample (123). Section (A) comprises 39 students who make up the research sample. The researchers came to several conclusions, the most significant of which are that there is a positive correlation between the accuracy of the throwing arm and the variables of various bio-kinetic capacities (explosive ability, strength endurance, and agility) of the legs and throwing arm. complex offensive performance among fourth-year handball students. The most important recommendations: emphasizing the interest in developing the most important bio-kinetic abilities for their role in developing all offensive skills in handball
