Abstract

In this study, we measured differences in classroom activity experiences and football skills of 114 university students who got traditional (EIC-SEM, n=56) vs. innovated classroom (TIC-SEM, n=58) teaching environments throughout a semester. TIC-SEM participants outperformed others in task, authority, grouping, and evaluation, and also demonstrated better improvements in technical skills - dribbling and shooting - and the overall game. These impacts were small to moderate only. These findings show TIC-SEM may be a viable way for improving student experience, as well their skill learning outcomes, in teaching college football.
