Aim of this study is to analyze the effect of a 8 week-explosive power training on some performance parameters of students who studying in sports high school. A total of 101 healthy male canoist students who studying in sports high school volunteered to participate in this study. students were randomly divided into two groups and test (N = 51) and control (N = 50) groups were formed. Explosive power trainings were applied to test group during 8 weeks as 30-minute trainings for 3 days a week in addition to canoe training and control group continued only canoe training. All data were obtained twice as pre-test and post-test before and after training. Four line sprint test, standing long jump test and 20m sprint test were used to determine performances of the subjects When results of the study are examined, it is seen that explosive power trainings applied during 8 weeks had statistically significant effects in favor of the post-tests for 20m sprint, sprint-agility and standing long jump performances pre-test and post-test results (P<0.05). In addition, when post-test results of test and control group were compared, it was found that test group's 20m sprint, sprint-agility and standing long jump performances post-test results showed statistically more significant improvement than control group's post-test results (P<0.05). These results confirm our expectations before the research. Consequently, it can be thought that explosive power trainings applied have positive effects on 20m sprint, sprint-agility and standing long jump performances.

The current study determines the effectiveness of using task-based language instructions in teaching writing at a high school in Thai Nguyen province. The participants consist of 92 grade 10 students from Bing Yen high school, Dinh Hoa district. The study employs a mix method research design (MMR) as the plan for the research. The results of the study reveals that the results of writing performance were reported at a low level (M=3.72). The results also confirmed that the intervention worked well for the experimental group. The mean score of the pre-test (the baseline for both groups) was M=3.72. The intervention focused on TBLT instructions. After first five weeks, the means of post-test1 were M=4.96 and M=3.83 for experimental group and control group respectively. There was a significant difference between the mean of pre-test and post-test1 for the experimental group (M=3.72 compared to M=4.96), while the control group showed a little improvement (M=3.72 compared to M=3.83) the difference was not significant. After another five weeks, the difference in the mean scores of the experimental group were far more than the mean scores of the control group, M=5.56 and M=4.45 respectively. By the end of the fifteenth week of the intervention, the mean of post-test 3 of the experimental group reached M=6.41, the mean for control group was M=5.54. The difference of the mean scores in the pre-test and post-test revealed a significant improvement in both groups. However, the experimental group showed a greater improvement, M=6.41 and M=5.54 respectively. It can infer that the uses of TBLT writing instruction improved writing achievement greatly.

Background: Chinese children are poorer in sports activity as compared to foreign children and their prospects as to physical fitness are not optimistic. This study aimed to discuss the effects of diversified sports activity modules on physical fitness and mental health of preschoolers ages 4–5 years. Methods: Sixty preschoolers aged 4–5-yr-old from two kindergartens in Jiaxing of China were selected randomly during Mar-Oct 2019. These respondents were divided into the experimental group (n=30) and the control group (n=30). The experimental group implemented the diversified sports activity module for 16 wk successively, 5 d per week, and 30-45 min per day. The control group adopted conventional sports activity. The body shape, physical fitness, and mental health of the two groups were measured and compared. Results: For body shape, the height of the experimental group increased is significantly higher than that of the control group. The experimental and control groups show no significant differences in body weight. For physical fitness, the experimental group is significantly superior to the control group in testing results of standing long jump, double-feet continuous jump, balancing on one foot, tennis shot, sit-and-reach, and 10 m repeated run. For mental health, the testing results of action development, language development, and social development of the experimental group are significantly better than those of the control group. Conclusion: The diversified sports activity module is not only conducive to strengthening the physical fitness of 4–5-year-old preschoolers but also improves their mental health.
