The Effect Of A Digital Mediabased Dribbling Approach On Futsal Extracurricular Activities At Smp Wesley Academic Year 2024/2025

Abstract

Background

The background to this research stems from the limited sports facilities in schools and the use of conventional learning methods, which are less able to optimally accommodate motor skill mastery. Digital media approaches such as video tutorials and motion analysis are expected to overcome these obstacles and improve learning effectiveness.

Objectives

This study aims to determine the effect of the futsal dribbling approach through digital media on improving students' dribbling abilities in extracurricular activities at Wesley Middle School.

Methods

This study used a quantitative method with a one-group pre-test and post-test pre-experimental design. The sample consisted of 20 students participating in the futsal extracurricular activity at Wesley Middle School. Data were collected through dribbling ability tests before and after being exposed to digital media-based learning.

Results

The results of the normality test showed that the data were normally distributed. Hypothesis testing using a paired-samples t-test revealed a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores with a significance value of p = 0.000 (p < 0.05). Average dribbling time increased from 32.40 seconds to 29.11 seconds.

Conclusion

Overall, this approach not only improves learning outcomes quantitatively but also has a qualitative impact on students' attitudes and enthusiasm for participating in futsal extracurricular activities. Extracurricular activities managed with an innovative approach can build character, increase students' sense of responsibility, and strengthen teamwork.
