Description
This study explores the impact of sports-integrated physics instruction on high school students from diverse cultural backgrounds, such as the Indian community in Qatar. A study with 120 students in grades 11 and 12 across three schools revealed that integrating sports into physics instruction greatly enhanced students' comprehension of physics concepts, boosted their motivation, and fostered a more positive attitude towards learning the subject. The research suggests that incorporating sports into physics education enhances students' understanding and enthusiasm, which is particularly beneficial for high school classes; the findings suggest a move towards interdisciplinary teaching techniques, focusing on active and student-centred learning.
