Introduction
Technology has enabled students and teachers to have interactive and engaging learning experiences, and providing teachers with more advanced teaching strategies boosts the educational environment. Animation is one of the most effective tools for creating engaging learning experiences for students, as it can bring topics to life and make them easier to understand. Additionally, animation can help keep students motivated and interested in the learning process, which can help them retain information better. Based on Korakakis et al. [Korakakis et al. [Boxing is a combat sport that depends on physical factors, technical skills, tactical insight, and mental strength. For beginners, the mental aspect is the most important to increase physical, technical, and tactical effectiveness. Cognitive awareness is key to developing psychomotor skills, spatial awareness, and motivation to learn. A correct understanding of boxing skills contributes to improving educational and training processes and reaching optimal motor skills [Therefore, the current study aims to answer the question: what is the effectiveness of using the reciprocal teaching style when combined with 3DHT on students’ performance level of basic boxing skills?From this main question, the following sub-questions emerge: is there a statistically significant difference between the pre- and post-measurements of the experimental group regarding fundamental boxing skills; what is the significance of the differences between the experimental and control groups on the post-measurement of fundamental boxing skills; and what is the effect size of the reciprocal style combined with 3DHT?
