The Effect of Self‑Regulated Learning Strategy in Motor Hyperactivity and Learning the Performance of Skill of Jump Shot in Basketball for Freshmen High School Students

The study aims to identify the effect of the strategy of self‑regulated learning in the motor hyperactivity and learning the performance of the jump shot skill of the basketball for freshmen high school students. The researchers used the experimental design with the experimental and control groups in pre and post. This study was conducted at Al‑Fursan High School, the General Directorate for Education of Al‑Rusafa II for the academic year 2017‑2018. Male students aged 15‑16‑years were surveyed using hyperactivity scale to detect the phenomenon that correspond to the study problem. Students who scored (28) on this scale were purposively selected to represent (36.842%) of the original community. They were divided into two equal groups; study and control. Each group included (14) students. The researchers prepared six educational units that are applied in the physical education lesson for the study group. The study results revealed that the self‑regulated learning strategy has proved its effectiveness in reducing hyperactivity and its good investment in the physical education lesson. The self‑regulated learning strategy proved its effectiveness in learning the performance of jump‑shot in basketball for freshmen high school. The researchers recommend that it is necessary to pay attention to the periodic psychometry in the physical education lesson in the high school to detect unwanted behaviors and change them into active and productive behaviors, and training teachers and develop their own abilities in the application of educational strategies in the physical education lesson and caring for the modern of such strategies.
