Abstract

The research aims to design an educational program using a mobile application and identify its impact on the skill and digital levels of the javelin throwing race for struggling female students. The experimental approach was used for two groups, one experimental and the other a control group, using two measurements (pre-post) for each of them due to its suitability to the nature of this research. The research was applied to A sample of struggling female students for the second group. The number of the sample reached (48 female students) and they were divided into two groups, one experimental and numbering (24 female students) and the other a control group and numbering (24 female students). The program was implemented using the mobile application for a period of (6) weeks with (3) units Weekly, and the most important results of the research resulted in that the program with the mobile application contributed to improving the digital level of struggling female students with improvement rates of (56.1%), and also had a positive impact on improving some of the physical abilities related to skill performance such as (agility, coordination, muscular ability, speed). The most important recommendations are to conduct similar studies in order to determine the effectiveness of using the mobile application on different samples and other track and field competitions, and to pay attention to introducing new strategies in teaching in general and in teaching track and field competitions in particular.
