Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed to 1) clarify the cross-sectional relationship between hurdle clearance motion and 50-m hurdle running time (hereafter, time) in junior high school students, and 2) to clarify the effects of the experimental teaching method in a hurdle lesson.
No significant relationship was found between the time and the maximum hurdling height. The faster boy’s time was significantly related to the longer horizontal hurdling distance. Therefore, it may be possible to develop the ability to jump as high and long as possible and sprint in turn through the PE hurdle lesson, while improving the boys’ running time. So, we conducted the experimental lesson using teaching content of clearing hurdle as high and long as possible to junior high school student. As the result, it was suggested that this experimental lesson is effective at improving PE academic ability for both boy and girl in junior high school.
