Introduction and research problem:
The current era is witnessing tremendous scientific and technological progress in all fields, and there has become more awareness that the progress achieved by countries in the field of sports is a true reflection of the scientific progress they have reached. Therefore, interest in the field of physical education has increased, and developed countries have provided all ways and means to Achieving its goals, which prompted the researchers to identify the best methods and methods that can be used in developing the physical, skill, cognitive and emotional aspects of the learner in the shortest time and with the least effort.
Recent trends in the educational process focused on self-learning and his ability to acquire the experiences provided by the educational situation, and to benefit from all the data in the educational environment to make the learner more positive and able to achieve the required educational goals, which was reflected in the emergence of new methods in teaching methods based on The activity of the learner is in the first place so that the learner teaches himself with the help of the teacher. (Ghadeer Ezzat, 1, 2020)
In light of recent trends regarding the use of technology and its techniques in all aspects of life, we also find that traditional teaching methods and methods have received a great deal of attention in this regard, and relying on e-learning has become one of the requirements to keep up with our current era in order to face rapid and successive scientific changes.
Therefore, those in charge of the educational process find it necessary to deal with renewable technological systems and arts in an effort to develop the capabilities of their students and qualify them to deal with the variables of the technological age that requires teaching the student how to obtain knowledge for himself from its various sources, and thus the need came to develop accurate educational models that envisage the rational exploitation of computer and information technologies. Such as infographic technology, multimedia, and instructional design skills, and employing them in an optimal way in the teaching and learning process.

Gregory Howes, Kate Stevenson (2021), and Muhammad Shaltout (2014) agree that the infographic technology with its various designs has appeared in an attempt to add a new visual form for collecting and displaying information or transferring data in attractive images to the learner, as infographic designs work to change The style of thinking towards complex data and information. Infographic technology also helps in presenting the school curricula in a new and interesting way. Therefore, it is necessary to search for a new way to apply this technology in serving the educational process and integrating it into the curricula.

Tamer Al-Maghawry, Yasser Al-Hamidawy (2018) agree with Buket, A & Pinar N (2014) that infographic design is a technical term that refers to transforming complex information and data into visual graphics that are easy for those who see them to understand without the need to read many texts. It is considered one of the most important and effective means these days and the most attractive one for presenting information, as it combines ease, speed, and suspense in presenting the information and communicating it to the recipient.
He adds both M. N. Mohd Amin (2015) and Muir, I.L., Munroe-Chandler, K.J (2020) that the infographic design is a visual representation of data and information that is designed to allow the reader to absorb and understand information and knowledge clearly and quickly. (Muir, I.L., Munroe-Chandler, K.J 2020)
Hagemann, G. et all (2021), Somaya Fathy (2019), Tariq Abdel Raouf (2018) and Moataz Essa (2014) believe that infographics is a technical term that refers to the conversion of complex information and data into pictorial graphics that are easy for those who see it to understand clearly and interestingly. Without the need to read a lot of texts, which provides effective visual communication between the sender and the receiver, which is reflected in the psychological and mental characteristics of the learner. (Hagemann, G. et all 21, 2021) (Moataz Essa, 2014, 3)
There is no doubt that the strategies of modern learning methods have become more focused on making a large part of the responsibilities and decisions of learning available to the learner as the focus of the educational process, which was greatly reflected in the need to pay attention to mental abilities during the learning process and to find new ways to stimulate these capabilities.
Through teaching the subject of fencing in the college, the researcher noticed that many students, especially the students of the first year, do not have the ability to absorb the sport of fencing and the difficulty in reaching the ideal performance of the skill, as well as the inability to attract the interest of the students to participate effectively, which led to the lack of performance and also the unnoticed progress in the skill aspects.
The researcher believes that the infographic seeks to integrate technological innovations in addition to the artistic and creative sense in presenting information in a new, concise, coherent and interesting way in the form of pictures, static and moving graphics, and video clips, and that the use of educational means and different learning technologies in designing different educational programs is effective in motor learning for the sport of fencing. It was necessary to use educational means that allow the learner to be the main focus of the educational process.
From the foregoing, the importance of the current research is evident in its attempt to use infographics in the sport of fencing, as the researcher believes in the necessity of development in teaching methods and learning the skills of fencing.
Search goal:
The research aims to:
Developing a proposed educational program using infographics on some basic skills and knowledge achievement in the sport of fencing
Research hypotheses:
