Learning Need Assessment: Formulating Blended-Learning as Academic Services for Student-Athletes

Abstract

There is no other way to succeed in many ways except to do more business. That is what happens to studentathletes who study at Physical Education Teacher Education (PETE). They must perform optimally as athletes, as well as success in learning to achieve maximum academic achievement. For this reason, instructors must provide learning services that enable students to continue to conduct a series of training centers without having to leave the academic learning process. In order for learning service formulas to be in accordance with student-athlete learning needs, it is necessary to analyze student-athlete learning needs. This research is included in the type of descriptive research which explains the learning needs of student-athletes in participating in the academic process as students as well as concentration training as an athlete. Student needs were revealed using a closed and open questionnaire. A total of 14 students-athletes became subjects who thoroughly completed the questionnaire. The results of the study showed that students-athletes felt heavy carrying out two roles simultaneously without gaining easy access in both of them. The conclusion obtained is that student-athletes expect lectures to be conducted by combining distance learning (online) and face-to-face. Blended-learning is an option in providing the right service for students-athletes to be able to follow the academic process on campus while conducting training camps as athletes.

Priambodho et al [4] revealed that the students needed lectures that were conducted by combining distance and face-to-face learning. One solution is to provide a learning management system (LMS) as an online class for distance learning.…”

High Physical Self-Concept Benefits on School Adjustment of Korean Student-Athletes

“…Furthermore, over half (51.6%) the students stop sports without any external extenuating circumstances [9]. Student-athletes may have more difficulty in adjusting because of several intrinsic characteristics that should be considered when developing assistance programs [10]. As the curriculum in Korea consists of 6 years of elementary school, 3 years of junior high school, and 3 years of high school, it is necessary to adapt to the new environment whenever the class changes.…”
