Abstract
The purpose of this study was to feasibility of adding a student workbook in learning packages for physical education curriculum.The research method was qualitative and applied in terms of purpose.Interviewees included managers and experts of curriculum, authors of physical education textbooks,professors of Farhangian University, instructional supervisors, and physical education teachers.Sampling was done in a theoretically purposive way and the process of interviewing continued until saturation (35 people).The research tool was a semi-structured interview. We used triangulation, respondent validation, and peer examination strategies for validate the research process.Data analysis was done by thematic method.In total,498primary codes,80concepts,18categories and 4themes were counted. Achievements,book sponsorships,book production process and executive arrangements are the four main themes extracted from the research findings. In the book production theme, the selection of a strong production team, adherence to the principles of curriculum and fundamental documents, appropriateness to executive requirements, and attention to the technical and content features of the book were emphasized. Also, in the Theme of executive arrangements,considering financial and human resources,dissemination and promotion,upgrading of infrastructure,participation and cooperation,time management and benefiting from the desired structure and organization should be considered by the relevant authorities.In case of preparing and taking into account the necessary implementation arrangements,providing sufficient support and benefiting from the scientific and principled process in the design and production of the student's workbook, one can expect to achieve favorable results and outcomes in the direction of the development of physical education and increasing physical literacy of students.Examining the exact effectiveness of this issue requires more research.
