Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of learning time management in Physical Education, Sports, and Health during the Covid-19 pandemic at MTs Aunul Ibaad NW Maji.

Materials and Methods: This study used a quantitative correlational design. The participants were 49 students from grades VII, VIII, and IX at MTs Aunul Ibaad NW Maji. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using preliminary analysis, normality testing, homogeneity testing, and multiple correlation analysis with SPSS version 21.0.

Results: The findings showed that learning time management was mostly in the moderate category, with 22 students or 44.9%. Physical Education, Sports, and Health learning was mostly in the low category, with 18 students or 36.7%. The Covid-19 pandemic variable was mostly in the moderate category, with 19 students or 38.8%. Correlation analysis showed a significant relationship between learning time management and the Covid-19 pandemic, r = 0.314, p = 0.028. There was also a significant relationship between Physical Education, Sports, and Health learning and the Covid-19 pandemic, r = 0.533, p = 0.000. In addition, learning time management was significantly related to Physical Education, Sports, and Health learning, r = 0.354, p = 0.013. Simultaneously, learning time management and Physical Education, Sports, and Health learning were significantly related to the Covid-19 pandemic, r = 0.549, p = 0.000.

Conclusions: Learning time management in Physical Education, Sports, and Health during the Covid-19 pandemic at MTs Aunul Ibaad NW Maji was not fully optimal. Although significant relationships were found among the studied variables, the contribution values were relatively low to moderate, indicating that other factors also influenced the effectiveness of Physical Education learning during the pandemic.
