Abstract

The aim of the research is to develop a K.W.L.plus strategy to teach the blocking skill in volleyball for second-year students of the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences. The aim is to identify the effect of the K.W.L.plus strategy on learning the blocking skill in volleyball for second-year students of the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences. To consider the research problem, the researcher used the experimental method with two groups, an experimental and a control group. The researcher deliberately selected the research community, which was comprised of only (194) students, distributed among (5) classes of the second-year students from the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, University of Diyala, for the academic year 2024/2025. The sample is selected randomly to include students from classes (A, B and C). After excluding students who failed, postponed, and practiced the game, the final sample  reached to  (70) students who are divided into (35) students per group. The researcher concluded that the K.W.L.Plus strategy had a positive impact on developing students' volleyball blocking skills. There were significant differences between the experimental and control groups, in favor of the experimental group. The researcher recommends using the K.W.L.Plus strategy in teaching other volleyball skills to improve students’ skill performance. These exercises are also recommended to female students.
