Abstract: Badminton skill learning among pre-service physical education teachers extends beyond the ability to perform movements because it also contributes to competencies that will later be used in teaching. The short serve is a fundamental skill requiring racket control, appropriate shuttlecock contact, and placement accuracy. This study aimed to analyze changes in students' badminton short-serve skills after audiovisual-assisted instruction. The study involved 10 pre-service physical education teachers at STKIP Pasundan, Cimahi, Indonesia and used a quantitative pre-experimental approach with a one-group pretest-posttest design. All members of the accessible population were included through total sampling. Audiovisual-assisted instruction was implemented over 14 instructional sessions. Short-serve skill was measured using a short service ability test administered before and after the intervention. The mean score increased from 12.50 ± 4.88 at pretest to 18.30 ± 3.16 at posttest, with a mean difference of 5.80 points, equivalent to 46.4%. A paired-samples t-test indicated a significant difference, t(9) = 3.351, p = 0.009, with Cohen's d_z = 1.06. These findings show that short-serve performance improved after 14 sessions of audiovisual-assisted instruction. Audiovisual media can serve as a complementary resource that helps students observe movement structure more concretely during practice. The manuscript includes 18 references and four tables.
