The Effects of Facebook Live-Stream Teaching on Improving Students' Dance Skills

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to enhance the effect of dance skill learning, learning motivation, and physical activity class satisfaction. Moreover, the outcome of these quasi-experiments illustrate the effects of Facebook Live-stream teaching, co-regulated learning (CRL), and experience-based learning (ExBL) on improving students' learning performance. The experimental design in this study was a 2 (CRL vs. non-CRL) × 2 (ExBL vs. non-ExBL) factorial pretest/post-test design. Four classes of a course titled ‘Physical Education: Dance' at university level were chosen for this study in one semester. According to the analysis of results, conclusions of this study are that students who receive ExBL have significantly higher physical activity class satisfaction than students who do not receive ExBL. In addition, in the case of ExBL teaching, the concurrent implementation of CRL can improve students' dance skill learning more than ExBL alone.

“…In addition, we have detected a statistically significant increase in students' internal, external and target motivation upon completion of the course (RQ3). Such motivation boost was found in all other physical activity studies where social media communication was part of the learning process (Al Ayubi et al, 2014;Degoy & Olmos, 2020;Divine et al, 2019;Krivsun, 2011;Wu et al, 2021). For instance, Wu et al (2021) aimed to determine how watching Facebook live streams affected the respondents' dancing skills, learning motivation, and perception of PE classes.…”

For instance, Wu et al (2021) aimed to determine how watching Facebook live streams affected the respondents' dancing skills, learning motivation, and perception of PE classes. As a result, the experimental group reported being highly motivated and satisfied with the learning process and also noted improved dancing skills.…”
