| Abstract | ||
| The current research aims to identify the effectiveness of an educational program based on video modeling to improve the optimum performance level of back strike for beginner swimmers. The researcher used the experimental approach (two-group design) with pre- and post-measurements. Participants (n=16) were purposefully chosen from beginner swimmers of Tanta Sports club. They were divided into two equivalent groups (experimental/control) with (8) swimmers in each group. Another (12) beginner swimmers from the same research community and outside the main sample was chosen as a pilot sample. Results indicated that the video modeling program had positive effects on the technical performance level of back stroke for beginner swimmers of the experimental group I favor of the post-measurements. There are statistically significant differences on P≤0.05 between the pre- and post-measurements of the technical performance of back stroke for the experimental group as (t) calculated value (20.97) was higher than its table value and improvement percentage reached (27.51%) in favor the post-measurements. There are statistically significant differences on P≤0.05 between the pre- and post-measurements of the technical performance of back stroke for the control group as (t) calculated value (6.39) was higher than its table value and improvement percentage reached (7.27%) in favor of the post-measurements. There are statistically significant differences on P≤0.05 between the post-measurements of the technical performance of back stroke for the experimental and control groups as (t) calculated value (9.97) was higher than its table value and improvement percentage was (20.24%) in favor of the experimental group. | ||
