<p><span lang="EN-US">This article makes an analysis of the pedagogical teaching practices used and developed by Chilean physical education teachers during the coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic periods. The virus from China spread around the world, changed our daily lives and as such, at the same time impacted the educational system in a matter of weeks. Confinement led educational systems to eliminate face-to-face and use virtual teaching in order to continue with the teaching-learning processes, including the physical education discipline. From the methodological point of view, the study is installed in the interpretive-qualitative perspective, in such a way that 14 semi-structured interviews were carried by physical education teachers from the Maule-Chile region, via team, Zoom, Skype, because of the pandemic, face-to-face contact was impossible. The result of the study shows the impact on the quality of life of teachers and students because of the confinement. The pedagogical reconfiguration that teachers experienced in a matter of days, led them to use different virtual platforms to continue connected with their students, in order to deploy the learning objectives defined by the Chilean Ministry of Education. However, the foregoing shows the scarce possibility of verifying student learning, due to the difficulties of monitoring and feedback.</span></p>

The Covid-19 pandemic pushed the limits and limitations of all educational systems, teachers and students around the world. The solution adopted – distance, online teaching, learning and assessment – has proven to be of a longer duration than initially anticipated, to the frustration of students, parents, and teachers alike. Nonetheless, following a careful analysis of these processes over the last (two) semesters, surprising findings point out to the fact that the digital experience has brought forth, at least at the higher-education level, substantial positive outcomes that cannot be neglected. It has strengthened the digital skills that both students and teachers will need in a technology dominated future and has made the actors of the educational process aware of the constant need for an innovative look and creative approach toward sharing and assimilating the impressive amount of knowledge existent nowadays. The present article aims at discovering both the strengths and the weaknesses, the motivational factors and the technical difficulties that have characterized the recent online educational process; it also inquires to what extent this type of learning will be an integral part of our daily lives in the academia, once the on-site courses will be resumed.

The Covid-19 pandemic has put enormous pressure on the educational system in all its teaching and learning activities, and in the specific case of the practical training of teachers. This study seeks to investigate through qualitative research with a comprehensive interpretive approach, the training of the practicum of Physical Education teachers in Chile, considering the knowledge and experiences, in the context of virtual classrooms during the Covid-19 pandemic. Semi-structured interviews and focus groups were used to collect the data; and were analyzed with the content analysis technique. As result, it can be observed that the students manifest diverse experiences in their practicum process, with difficulties inherent to the remote work condition, such as difficulty in communication with students and school teachers, problems in didactic and evaluation processes, and adaptation to context. It is necessary to discuss the access of students and teachers to technologies, as well as the training of physical education teachers in areas of didactic and assessment in contexts where face-to-face is difficult.

The Impact

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has evidenced the fragility of the education system at all levels, which is why the call of the United Nations through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Agenda 2030, specifically Goal 4, is especially relevant. Additionally, Pope Francis, at the end of the year 2020, proposes to the world a Global Pact on Education, in view of the increase of the social debt due to the unprecedented affectation of the educational system. This disruption in the lives of all people due to compulsory isolation gave way to a change of era and surprised the face-to-face education supply, which had to adjust to a new way of educating. The capacity for resilience made it possible to evaluate, analyze and visualize transformation processes in education, whether in the management of the educational service and/or in the teaching-learning systems. Therefore, this work aims to identify the perception of teachers and students regarding the educational service and quality assurance in COVID-19 time, of an accredited and certified Administration career, belonging to a prestigious university in Ecuador with Ignatian educational model, during the year 2020.

La presente investigación tiene como propósito describir el discurso y la práctica docente de aula de los profesores de Educación Física en relación con el Conocimiento Didáctico del Contenido (CDC). La construcción del conocimiento didáctico y consecuentemente pedagógico se genera desde las prácticas escolares, produciéndose un aprendizaje de conocimiento articulado y situado en la relación entre teoría y práctica, que comprende aspectos didácticos, pedagógicos, disciplinares, profesionales y prácticos de la profesión docente. En este sentido, la investigación se planteó como objetivo comprender el proceso de construcción y las fuentes del conocimiento didáctico del contenido en el profesorado de Educación Física de la región del Maule – Chile. La metodología utilizada es de carácter cualitativa, toda vez que se sustenta en el paradigma interpretativo-comprensivo que busca la comprensión de fenómenos complejos. En términos de diseño, se realizaron seis entrevistas semiestructuradas a profesores de Educación Física que trabajan en la Región del Maule, Chile. El proceso de codificación, categorización e interpretación permitió concluir que poseer un conocimiento de carácter disciplinar por parte del profesor, no garantiza aprendizajes de calidad para los estudiantes que participan del aula de Educación Física, puesto que se requiere de un conocimiento pedagógico general, que permita al profesor planear, organizar y ejecutar situaciones de enseñanza-aprendizaje de calidad.Abstract. The aim of this research is to describe the discourse and the classroom teaching approach of Physical Education teachers in relation to the Didactic Content Knowledge (CDC). The construction of didactic and consequently pedagogical knowledge is generated from school practices, producing an articulated learning knowledge and located in the relationship between theory and practice, which includes didactic, pedagogical, disciplinary, professional, and practical aspects of the teaching profession. In this sense, the objective of this research was to understand the construction process and the sources of CDC in Physical Education teachers from the Maule region in Chile. The methodology used is qualitative, since it is based on the interpretive-comprehensive paradigm that seeks to understand complex phenomena. In terms of design, six semi-structured interviews were conducted with Physical Education teachers working in the Maule Region, Chile. The process of coding, categorization, and interpretation allowed us to conclude that even if teachers have disciplinary knowledge that does not guarantee quality learning for students who participate in the Physical Education classroom, since a general pedagogical knowledge is required, which allows teachers to plan, organize, and execute quality teaching-learning situations.

Teaching Learning

The pandemic situation at the beginning of March 2020 forced teachers to develop alternative teaching methods, and most important to find the best ways to keep teaching for every student no matter the situation, as for example, the lack of computer knowledge or hardware/software support. Teachers worldwide struggled to support, encourage, find the best ways not only to help students to keep learning but support them emotionally. At the end of the academic year, teachers made efforts to develop fair, appropriate evaluation procedures adapted to distance education. This paper summarizes the Distance Teaching-Learning-Evaluation (DTLE) evolution in Russia and Romania and some methods developed from March to December 2020 to support the educational activity. Some benefits, challenges and difficulties are identified during the same period of time in different DTLE scenarios, from the point of view of teachers and students, as well. Examples of new adapted methods, dedicated to the DTLE scenarios are al-so addressed in this work.

The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the beliefs of Chinese children with physical disabilities engaging in sports and physical activity (PA), and the impact of the Paralympic Games on these beliefs. Five Chinese children with physical disabilities (female = 2, male = 3) were recruited for participating in the workshops of the Paralympic Games and PA, and received individual semi-structured interviews before and after the workshop implementations. Interview transcripts were analysed and presented as descriptive summaries. Three themes emerged based on the analysis of the participants’ interview data: (1) shocked, knowledgeable, and useful; (2) willingness to try, and (3) hope to obtain support. Results indicated that children with physical disabilities in this study acknowledged the positive outcomes of participating in the workshops of the Paralympic Games on the sports and PA engagement attitude change. However, children with disabilities also expressed that they need more related knowledge and information. The results of the study revealed that impairment and contextual factors (i.e., lack of support from family and physical education teachers, unsafe environments, and negative attitudes of peers without disabilities) were barriers to sports and PA engagement among children with physical disabilities in this study.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought new challenges to the global community, reinforcing the role of public health in society. The main measures to combat it had (and still have) a huge impact on the daily lives of citizens. This investigation aimed to identify and monitor the population’s perceptions about how it faced this period and the impact on health, well-being, and daily life. In this study, we describe the main trends observed throughout the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of mental health status, confidence in the capacity of the health services to respond to the pandemic, and the use of health services by participants. The online survey collected responses from 171,947 individuals ≥16 years of age in Portugal, over a period of 15 weeks that started on 21 March 2020. Participants could fill the questionnaire once or weekly, which enabled us to analyse trends and variations in responses. Overall, 81% of the respondents reported having felt agitated, anxious, or sad during the COVID-19 pandemic; 19% did not experience these feelings. During the confinement period, the proportion of participants feeling agitated, anxious, or sad every day/almost every day ranged between 20 and 30%, but since the deconfinement this proportion decreased. Around 30% reported having more difficulty getting to sleep or to sleep all night; 28.4% felt more agitated; 25.5% felt sadder, discouraged, or cried more easily; and 24.7% felt unable to do everything they had to do, women more frequently than men. Overall, 65.8% of the participants reported feeling confident or very confident in the health services’ capacity to respond to the challenges associated with the pandemic, and this confidence increased over time. Concerning the people who needed a consultation, 35.6% had one in person and 20.8% had one remotely, but almost 44% did not have one due to cancellation by the service (27.2%) or their own decision not to go (16.3%). At this unusual time in which we find ourselves and based on our findings, it is essential to continue monitoring how the population is facing the different phases of the pandemic until it officially ends. Analysing the effects of the pandemic from the point of view of citizens allows for anticipating critical trends and can contribute to preventative action.
