ABSTRACT:
The research adopted the experimental approach due to its suitability to the nature of the research. A sample of second-grade middle school students at Al Nahda Intermediate School for Boys was selected and divided into two groups: an experimental group according to the TASK model, and a control group using the traditional method. The students underwent pre- and post-tests that included handling, rolling, and scoring skills, in addition to a future thinking test. An eight-week, sixteen-unit educational program was implemented, designed to allow students to work in groups, freely express their ideas, participate in decision-making, and collaborate in problem-solving. The results showed statistically significant differences in favor of the experimental group in all tests, indicating that the TASK model effectively contributed to improving technical performance in soccer, in addition to enhancing future thinking. The researcher attributed these results to the nature of the model, which combines cooperative learning, critical thinking, and practical experimentation, and provides students with ample space for interaction and dialogue, which enhanced their self-confidence and developed their ability to plan and innovate.
