Abstract

Purpose: This study explored how preservice physical education teachers (PPETs) perceive health-related fitness testing (HRFT) administered in a self-testing format with the aim to enhance their HRFT learning and better prepare them for future HRFT implementation. Methods: The study utilized a constructive phenomenological research design. A total of 11 PPETs participated in the study. Data were collected through a focus group interview, individual interviews, observation and field notes, and written assignments. Two researchers analyzed the data in NVivo 12. Results: Three findings were concluded from the data. First, the administration of self-testing engaged PPETs in active learning of HRFT. Second, PPETs reported positive attitudes toward self-testing when their needs for competence, autonomy, and relatedness were satisfied. Lastly, PPETs identified challenges and proposed suggestions for completing and administrating HRFT. Conclusions: Self-testing may be used as an alternative approach to preparing PPETs for HRFT. More research is needed to examine the effectiveness and reliability of self-testing in educational settings.

职前体育教师对教学方法课程中与健康相关的体能自我测试的看法
目的:本研究探讨了职前体育教师(PPETs)如何看待以自我测试形式进行的健康相关体适能测试(HRFT),旨在加强他们的健康相关体适能测试学习,为将来实施健康相关体适能测试做好更好的准备。研究方法:本研究采用了建设性现象学研究设计。共有 11 名 PPET 参与了研究。通过焦点小组访谈、个别访谈、观察和现场记录以及书面作业收集数据。两名研究人员使用 NVivo 12 对数据进行了分析。研究结果从数据中得出了三个结论。首先,通过实施自我测试,PPET 参与了人力资源和技能培训的主动学习。其次,当能力、自主性和相关性需求得到满足时,PPET 对自我测试持积极态度。最后,PPET 发现了完成和实施 HRFT 所面临的挑战,并提出了建议。结论:自测可以作为一种替代方法,帮助PPET为HRFT做好准备。还需要开展更多的研究,以考察自我测试在教育环境中的有效性和可靠性。
