Evaluating the Use of Modern Teaching Strategies by Physical Education Instructors: A Field Study in High-Schools from Bordj-Bou-Arréridj

Abstract

This study aims at evaluating the level of use of modern teaching strategies by high-school physical education instructors. The author used a descriptive methodology on a randomly selected sample of 28 instructors working at high-schools located in Bordj-Bou-Arréridj in the 2020/2021 academic year. The participants responded to a survey of 25 questions that encompass the principles of modern teaching strategies. The study showed that high-school physical instructors incorporate significantly the modern strategies in their teaching. It also showed that there were no significant differences in the use of these strategies that are due to academic qualification and professional experience variables. The author emphasized the importance of training students in Physical Education Institutions and new instructors on the principles of modern teaching strategies through seminars, field studies and workshops.
