The study aimed to: Develop a school social adaptation scale for first-grade intermediate female students. Prepare practical volleyball lessons using the Buzz Group Strategy. Identify the effect of the strategy on both school social adaptation and the performance of the setting and serve reception volleyball skills.
Findings: The researcher concluded that the school social adaptation scale is appropriate and valid for first-grade intermediate students, meeting the requirements of measurement tools in physical education sciences. The Buzz Group Strategy can be effectively integrated into physical education volleyball lessons, helping to enhance students’ social adaptation and improve their volleyball skill performance.
Recommendations included: Emphasizing psychological measurement tools for school social adaptation, as they reflect students’ acceptance of the classroom environment in physical education. Focusing more on practical applications rather than verbal instruction and external feedback to empower students through discovery and active participation. Enhancing the competencies of physical education teachers in intermediate schools and increasing their knowledge about the effective use of the Buzz Group Strategy through scientifically-based instructional planning.
This research contributes to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 4: Quality Education.
