Relative Effectiveness of Teaching Beginning Badminton with and without an Instant Replay Videotape Recorder

Abstract

The problem was to examine the relative effects of teaching badminton to beginners with and without an instant replay video tape recorder. Two classes ( Ns = 22 and 21) of students at Simon Fraser University were taught a 10-wk. unit of badminton. The experimental class used the video tape recorder. Evaluation of performance was by the Miller Badminton Wall Volley Test. No significant class-sex interaction was noted and no significant difference between the classes was observed.
