Abstract

The study aims to know the importance of applying both the command and reciprocal teaching method in “Basketball Fundamental Skills” classes, we aim to investigate the effect of these methods on students’ emotional intelligence level at the School of Sport Sciences. The sample of the study consisted of (37) students enrolled in basketball classes, divided into two groups consisting of (18) and (19) students taught by the command and reciprocal teaching methods respectively. The validated Arabic version of the Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale was used to collect the data required. Results revealed a significant effect of the reciprocal teaching method on students’ post emotional intelligence level. Also, differences between both teaching methods in favor of the reciprocal. However, no significant differences have revealed in students’ post emotional intelligence levels according to the command teaching method group. We recommend using the reciprocal teaching method to improve learners and players emotional intelligence.
