Abstract
The objectives of this research were: 1) to develop and assess the quality of an instructional model designed to promote physical activity of teachers in partner schools during the COVID-19 situation, in collaboration with the Faculty of Education at Naresuan University, and 2) to study the results of implementing this instructional model. The sample group consisted of 30 teachers from partner schools and 36 student of teachers who were a sample group, selected through purposive sampling. The research tools included: 1) the instructional model to promote physical activity in the COVID-19 situation, 2) an assessment of learning management ability to promote physical activity, and 3) an assessment of student health – related physical fitness. Data were analyzed using basic statistics, including means, standard deviations, and t-tests (One-Sample and Dependent). The results indicated that: 1) the instructional model to promote physical activity during the COVID-19 situation of teachers in partner schools comprises five stages: (1) Analysis: identifying needs and constraints caused by COVID-19, (2) Design: setting learning objectives and designing diverse activities based on a physical activity manual and learning management plan, (3) Development: creating teaching materials and preparing for online learning, (4) Implementation: conducting online teaching and fostering an online community, and (5) Evaluation: assessing learning outcomes and providing continuous feedback. The model was founded as highly suitable, feasible, and useful. 2) After implementing the model, the teachers' ability to manage learning that promotes physical activity during the COVID-19 situation were higher than the 70% criterion at a significance level of 0.05. Furthermore, post-test scores on students' health – related Physical fitness were significantly higher than pre-test scores, demonstrating effective learning management that resulted in improved physical fitness, suitable for exercise and sports.
