Abstract

Changes in learning methods at school can affect students' learning habits and activity patterns. This study aims to investigate the effect of hybrid learning compared to online learning on fitness level and body composition, specifically focusing on body mass index (BMI). The research method used was a quasi-experiment with a pretest-posttest control group design approach. The number of research subjects was 128 students with an average age of 10.35 ± 0.67 years, a body weight of 42.05 ± 8.97 kg, and a height of 142.84 ± 7.94 cm. The results showed that the post-test BMI score in the hybrid learning group decreased significantly, p < 0.05, by 19.69 kg/m2, and there was an increase in physical activity of 2.94 METs. Whereas in the online learning group, there was no significant difference in BMI or physical activity variables. The results of this study are expected to be a reference for teachers in schools and other educators to apply the hybrid method compared to online learning so that students' physical activity patterns can be maintained and continuously improved, which has an impact on body composition. The findings can also help in reducing physical activity patterns in big cities on the island of Sumatera and can be a discussion for researchers to create or modify more effective and efficient learning methods.

Abstract

Changes in learning methods cause a crucial decrease in physical education needs and time of involvement in physical activity, which can affect individual stress levels. The objective of this study was to find out the comparison of physical activity patterns and stress levels between blended versus conventional learning methods. This study used quasi-experimental with a posttest-only approach with a control group design. The total subjects were 160 sports students from Universitas Jambi, who were divided into two groups (Experiment and Control) with average age of 21.69 ± 1.33 years, weight of 55.74 ± 6.48 kg, height of 170.10 ± 5.51 cm, and BMI of 21.06 ± 2.77 kg/m2. The results showed that the blended learning group had a lower level of physical activity when compared to their respective conventional groups. Furthermore, the stress level in the blended learning group had a moderate stress while the conventional group had a low-stress. Thus, the research findings have answered the question that physical activity can affect an individual’s stress level, and conventional learning methods are still the best method compared to blended learning methods. This finding can be used as a reference, especially for educators, both lecturers and teachers in schools, to be able to take a spiritual approach and invite students to do activities they like, such as exercise and recreation, to trigger a sense of enthusiasm in students to continue to improve their fitness degree. Therefore, this will have an impact on mental health, which can affect student stress levels much lower.
