Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine if self- check method is more effective than command method in learning badminton skills at preschool age. 

The purpose of this study was to determine if self- check method is more effective than command method in learning badminton skills at preschool age. The sample consisted of 60 children that were divided into two groups, the experimental group (self- check) were taught badminton skills through picture communication symbols and the control group were taught the same badminton skills through the method of command. As control tools we used the French and Stalter tests (Barrow & Mc Gee, 1979; French, 1941; Washington, 1968) and the knowledge test with technical, basic regulations and rules, ie. «Ley Test». The children of both groups showed improvement in technique and not in performance (target), with the self-control group showing better results between measurements compared with the group of command. The same was observed in the knowledge test. The data analysis package SPSS was used to analyse the data and the statistical significance was accepted at p < .05. The conclusion of this research is that the self-check method can be used in pre-school-age children for teaching complex motor skills. It also revealed the need to research on teaching methods appropriate for children at preschool age.
