The research aimed to: identify the influence of the project’s learning strategy on cognitive achievement and the performance of some basic skills in rhythmic gymnastics, and construct a cognitive achievement test for second-year female students in the colleges of physical education and sports sciences. The researcher assumed: There are statistically significant differences between the results of the pre-, post-tests for the experimental, and control groups in cognitive achievement and the performance of some basic skills in rhythmic gymnastics for female students. There are statistically significant differences between the results of the control and experimental research groups in the post-tests in cognitive achievement and the performance of some basic skills in rhythmic gymnastics for female students. The researcher used the experimental method to suit it with the nature of the problem, and the research population was determined intentionally, represented by female students of the second stage - colleges of physical education and sports sciences (Kut University / University of Baghdad) for the academic year (2023-2024), who numbered (144) as a sample. As for the main experiment sample: The main experiment sample consisted of (36) female students from Kut University College, Department of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, from the research community. The sample was divided into two groups, with (18) female students for the experimental group and (18) female students for the control group, and they were chosen. In a random way. The researcher used statistical methods by using the statistical package (SPSS) to extract and transcribe the research results.
