Injure not only hindered students’ physical and mental development but also wasted the medical resources. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of students’ awareness through teachers’ guided instruction of sports safety. This study used “D. P. Ausubel’s Advance Organizers,” the teaching model as a theory base, and combined with “J. S. Bruner’s Learning by Discovery”. The researcher conducted the sport safety awareness questionnaire as a pre-test to the students in grade 7 from Taipei City. Then, select two classes composed of 22 boys and 23 girls with no significant difference on their academic performance and form them into the contrast and the control group. At last, “Guided Discovery” teaching method and “Traditional teaching method” are implemented seperately to analyze with independent t-test (α=.05). The findings are: 1. although students’ prior knowledge of sports safety were obviously insufficient; 2. the performance of students significantly improved after these two types of teaching methods. Furthermore, the performance of students from the contrast group was significantly better than the control group. Conclusion: the instruction of sports safety awareness is recommended to be conducted with diverse ways in teaching. When students’ interest and attention increase, learning effects could then be improved and fewer injuries will happen. The philosophy of education” No safety, No teaching; No health, No learning” will therefore be realized.
