| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立體育大學 === 運動科學研究所 === 99 === Physics is difficult to understand for most junior high school students. Combining teaching with student’s experience of life can initiate student's learning motivation and help them to understand the concept. Sport is one of the effective ways to guide and relieve physical and psychological development for the students. By incorporate the concept of sport in physics classcan help students to study and promote the attention to sport. This study analyzed sport examples in textbooks and interviewed nine physics and chemistry junior high schoo teachers to understand the current physics teaching status.The results showed that low proportion of examples comes from the textbooks, revealing that the content of the textbooks may not satisfy teacher’s needes. In fact, teachers would adopt sport examples according to students’ interests or their experiences while considering learners’ background knowledge. When introducing a sport example, teachers will explain the concept from different perspectives. By combinning physics and worked example of sport, a more comprehensive and intact sport example can be illustrated. Teachers believe that the context and the angle of the controversial sport examples need to be clearly identified and explained, thereby few confusions and learning/teaching burdens from students/teachers will occur. According to the results, it is suggested that instructors and textbook writers should provide more sport examples, making the course closer to students’ life.
