Item Juegos deportivos en la velocidad de desplazamiento de estudiantes de bachillerato general unificado(Universidad Técnica de Ambato-Facultad de Ciencias Humanas y de la educación -Carrera de Pedagogía de la Actividad Física y Deporte, 2025-07-04) Aponte Garcés Kevin Patricio; Castro Acosta Washington Ernesto; Universidad Técnica de Ambato-Facultad de Ciencias Humanas y de la educación -Carrera de Pedagogía de la Actividad Física y DeporteThe purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of sports games in the improvement of the speed of displacement of first year students of the Unified General High School in the “Sagrada Familia” Educational Unit, during the period March-July 2025. Through a quantitative approach and a pre-experimental design, the T-Drill Test was applied before and after an intervention based on sports games, to a sample of 30 randomly selected students. The intervention was developed during six months, with a weekly session, integrated to the Physical Education classes. The results obtained show a significant improvement in the speed of movement. The average time recorded in the test went from 9.48 seconds in the pretest to 9.03 seconds in the post-test. In addition, the percentage of students placed in the “Excellent” level increased from 63.3% to 86.7%, while the “Low” levels disappeared and the ‘Average’ and “Good” levels were reduced. Statistical analysis using the related samples t-test yielded a value of p = 0.000, indicating a statistically significant difference between pre- and post-intervention measurements. In conclusion, sports games proved to be an effective pedagogical strategy to develop the ability to move in adolescents. Its systematic incorporation into the Physical Education curriculum is recommended, together with regular follow-up by means of a physical education instrument. Statistical analysis using the related samples t-test yielded a value of p = 0.000, indicating a statistically significant difference between pre- and post-intervention measurements.
