Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was (1) to develop a mobile application for quantitative assessment in hurdle running skill and (2) to clarify the effect on the motor learning of high school students in simulated physical education class.
We developed an application which can estimate a 50-m hurdle running record from a horizontal jumping distance and a 50-m sprint running record using a linear multiple regression analysis. Throughout the simulated class, our pilot study found that the motor learning using the mobile application mainly affected to the student motivation. Therefore, a quantitative observation using a mobile application can be considered as a useful process in motor learning in physical education class.
