Development of the Bentbol Game toward Physical Education Learning at Elementary School

Abstract

Physical education learning in elementary schools tends to be monotonous, less engaging, and

limited by inadequate facilities, which affects students’ interest and participation.

This study aimed to develop the Bentbol (Ball Fortress) game model as an innova

tive PJOK learning alternative suitable for elementary school students. The study

used the Research and Development (R&D) method with the ADDIE model, con

sisting of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages.

The subjects were fourth-grade students at SD Negeri 1 Rancamaya, SD Negeri 1

Gunung Lurah, and SD Negeri 3 Cilongok. Data were collected through observa-tion,

interviews, and questionnaires, then analyzed using descriptive quantitative and

qualitative techniques. The results showed that the Bentbol game model achieved

an expert validation score of 95% in the very feasible category. Small-scale trials

obtained 77.53% in the good category, while large-scale trials reached 90.06% in

the very good category. The improvement in these results shows that the Bentbol

game model is effective in increasing students' activeness, coopera-tion, and

movement skills. Therefore, the Bentbol game model is feasible and effective as

an innovative and enjoyable PJOK learning alternative in elementary schools.
