Abstract

Changes in learning patterns during the Covid-19 certainly have a negative and positive impact, especially on students’ physical activity development. The brain breaks program is a new program in Indonesia. This program is designed to develop physical activity in children to improve learning, motor skills, fitness, and cultural culture. This research provided students’ perceptions of the use of the brain breaks program increasing physical activity, especially during the Covid-19. The research design used is descriptive quantitative research with survey techniques. Researchers conducted a survey of the entire population, which described the population’s unique attitudes, behaviours, and characteristics. Students did a brain break for a week, then fill out a questionnaire to measure their opinions and attitudes towards the brain break program. This research uses purposive sampling. This study involved 194 elementary school students (4-6) in six areas of DKI Jakarta. This research used a questionnaire instrument od Attitudes toward Physical Activity Scale (APAS). The percentage and descriptive analysis techniques were used to analyze the data in this study. Result: According to the findings, students’ perceptions of the brain breaks program were excellent, where the average score is 81.40%. The brain break program is beneficial from the aspect of physical activity and can contribute to the overall educational process, especially during the Covid-19. This positive impact must be supported by the competence of physical education teachers in the use of technology both in operation and in variations in the development of brain break movements adjusted to local wisdom based on Indonesian culture. The next step from the results of this research needs to be further developed research on brain breaks programs, especially in Indonesia, to increase physical activity in students at other educational levels and improve the quality of education. © JPES.

新冠肺炎大流行期间脑损伤对支持小学体育活动的影响

新冠肺炎期间学习模式的变化肯定会产生负面和正面影响，尤其是对学生的体育活动发展。脑损伤项目是印度尼西亚的一个新项目。该项目旨在发展儿童的体育活动，以提高学习、运动技能、健身和文化。这项研究提供了学生对使用大脑休息计划增加体力活动的看法，尤其是在新冠肺炎期间。所采用的研究设计是采用调查技术的描述性定量研究。研究人员对整个人群进行了调查，描述了人群的独特态度、行为和特征。学生们进行了为期一周的脑力休息，然后填写了一份问卷，以衡量他们对脑力休息计划的看法和态度。本研究采用目的性抽样。这项研究涉及雅加达DKI六个地区的194名小学生（4-6岁）。本研究采用了对体育活动态度量表（APAS）进行问卷调查。本研究采用百分比和描述性分析技术对数据进行分析。结果：根据研究结果，学生对大脑休息计划的认知非常好，平均得分为81.40%。大脑休息计划从身体活动方面有益，可以对整个教育过程做出贡献，尤其是在新冠肺炎期间。这一积极影响必须得到体育教师在操作中使用技术以及根据印尼文化的当地智慧调整大脑休息动作的变化方面的能力的支持。这项研究结果的下一步需要进一步发展对大脑休息计划的研究，特别是在印度尼西亚，以增加其他教育水平学生的体育活动，提高教育质量。©JPES。

期刊介绍： The main objective of JPES is to unite specialists from different fields, including sport, physical activity, kinesiology, education, health and nutrition, to provide the opportunity for multidisciplinary debates and comprehensive understanding of how physical activity influences human life. Researchers from areas that are related to sport and health are invited to publish their cutting-edge research and its practical applicability. Our target group of expert specialists includes academic researchers, kinesitherapists, physical education and sports teachers, physicians in sports medicine, psychologists, nutritionists, coaches and any other researchers involved in the sports field. JPES aims to act as a stimulus and a dissemination instrument for the research activity of Romanian and foreign investigators. JPES primarily publishes articles in the following fields: the natural sciences of sport, social and behavioral sciences and humanities, sports management, sports medicine, sports pedagogy and sport itself. The journal also aims to facilitate and enhance communication across all sub-disciplines of the sport sciences. The journal awaits original papers, review articles, technical reports and short communications that contain new insight into any aspect of the sport sciences that have not been previously published and are not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
