• Resumen

  • This research aims to evaluate the impact of the Intentionally Structuring approach in enhancing students' social skills within the framework of Physical Education, Sports, and Health (PESH). Two groups of students were compared: one utilizing the Intentionally Structuring approach and a control group (non-Intentionally Structuring). Independent Samples Test analysis revealed a significant difference in the progress of social skills between the two groups. Students engaged in Intentionally Structuring learning demonstrated significant improvements in cooperation, communication, interpersonal relationships, self-confidence, and teamwork skills. This approach enables students to develop collaborative abilities, articulate ideas clearly, and understand and respond to their peers' emotions more effectively. The findings of this research affirm that Intentionally Structuring makes a positive contribution to the development of students' social skills. The implications of this study are crucial in an educational context, highlighting the effectiveness of intentionally structured learning approaches in shaping students' social skills. Considering these results, schools and educators are encouraged to consider the use of Intentionally Structuring as a learning strategy to enrich students' learning experiences. The integration of similar approaches into other subjects is also proposed to support holistic student development. This research not only provides profound insights into the potential of Intentionally Structuring in the PESH context but also underscores the importance of emphasizing the development of students' social skills as a crucial preparation for their future in an increasingly complex society
