Philosophy Of Sport

AbstractThe aim of this study is to reflect upon the main issues of the so-called philosophy of sport education, showing its methodologies and possible use in the context of sport studies. This study will begin answering two of the main questions dealing with the issues of the philosophy of sport education, that is: what are sport and its values from an educational philosophical perspective and how can we put these values into practice through a practical methodology?The study will show that the philosophy of sport education is a human science capable of developing both a theoretical and practical knowledge very useful for physical education teachers, sport educators, athletes, and coaches. The aim of this philosophical science is to analyze and understand sport in order to give it an educational and hermeneutical sense: that is, interpreting and not merely describing sport and its complex problems, and trying to find a solution in light of a pedagogical perspective and through a reflexive methodology of intervention.

 En la actualidad, el modelo de Educación Deportiva destaca entre los enfoques de enseñanza centrados en el alumnado y con mayor impacto en los profesionales de la educación física. Los beneficios de su hibridación con el enfoque basado en la autoconstrucción de materiales no han sido aún explorados ni de manera longitudinal ni en Educación Primaria. El objetivo fue conocer y comparar la valoración de los docentes y su alumnado del uso de dos tipos de material (convencional y autoconstruido) durante dos temporadas consecutivas de Educación Deportiva. Participaron un total de 51 estudiantes de 3º y 4º de educación primaria y sus dos maestros de educación física. Se realizó un diseño cruzado simple cuasi-experimental de grupos aleatorios y muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia, en el que los dos niveles de la variable independiente (material convencional y autoconstruido) se aplicaron a los dos cursos participantes. Para la recogida de datos se utilizaron los diarios del docente así como entrevistas grupales a los estudiantes y entrevistas individuales a los docentes, antes y después de la implementación de cada unidad didáctica: ultimate e indiacas. Los datos fueron analizados por medio de comparaciones constantes. Los resultados indican un alto entusiasmo del alumnado durante ambas unidades, aunque muestran una inercia metodológica favorable al material autoconstruido según el orden del tipo de material utilizado. Además, se encontró que el material autoconstruido fomenta la actividad física extraescolar. Futuras investigaciones deberán analizar el nivel de actividad física en la educación física y en el período extraescolar dependiendo del material utilizado.Abstract. Currently, the Sport Education model stands out among the teaching approaches centered on the students and having a higher impact on the Physical Education teachers. The benefits of the hybridization based on self-made materials have not been studied either longitudinally or in Primary Education. The objective was to know and to compare the assessment of teachers and their students regarding the use of two types of materials (conventional and self-made) during two consecutive Sport Education seasons. A total of 51 students enrolled in grades 3 and 4 of Primary Education and their two Physical Education teachers took part in the experience. We used a quasi-experimental simple crossover design with randomized groups and non-probabilistic convenience sampling, in which the two levels of the independent variable (conventional and self-made materials) were applied in the two grade levels participating in the study. Data were collected by means of teacher diaries, group interviews with the students and individual interviews with the teachers, before and after implementation of each of the following didactic units: «ultimate» and «indiacas». Data collection was performed using constant comparisons. The results showed a high level of students’ enthusiasm during both didactic units, although the data analyzed indicated a methodological inertia to the self-made material, according to the order type of the used material. Besides, it was found that the self-made material encourages participation in extracurricular physical activities. Further studies are required to analyze physical activity levels in and outside the Physical Education setting as a function of the material used.

El objetivo de este trabajo consistió en analizar la percepción de profesores de educación física sobre las posibilidades de trabajo de las competencias básicas, de una metodología de enseñanza concreta. Para ello, doce docentes de Secundaria y de Primaria, realizaron un curso de formación permanente sobre dicho modelo, y una vez finalizado, implementaron una unidad didáctica en sus respectivos centros escolares. Fue entonces cuando por medio de un cuestionario elaborado ad-hoc, se les preguntó sobre su percepción del grado de desarrollo de las competencias básicas, en función de las fases del modelo de Educación Deportiva, y de sus características principales. Para comprobar si existieron diferencias en la percepción de los profesores, se calcularon las medias y desviaciones típicas del total de las variables registradas, y se utilizó la Prueba U de Mann-Whitney para dos muestras independientes. Los docentes analizados ven grandes posibilidades de trabajo competencial mediante el modelo de Educación Deportiva fundamentalmente de la competencia social y ciudadana, aprender a aprender, y autonomía e iniciativa personal.Palabra clave: Educación física, Competencias básicas, Modelos de enseñanza, Educación Deportiva.Abstract: The purpose of this paper was to analyze the perception of physical education teachers on job opportunities of key competences of a particular teaching model. To this end, 12 teachers, Secondary and Primary, conducted an in-service education course on the model, and once completed, implemented a teaching unit in their respective schools. It was then through a questionnaire, they were asked about their perception of the development of key competences. To check whether there were differences in the perception of teachers on the development of each of the core competencies, it was calculated means and standard deviations of all variables recorded, and used the Mann-Whitney U test for independent samples. Teachers see great potential to work competence through Sport Education Model primarily on social and civic competence, lifelong learning, and autonomy and personal initiative.Key words: Physical education, Key competences, Teaching models, Sport Education.

Previous research on negotiations between physical education teachers and students has been purely qualitative. The purpose of this study was to produce a quantified negotiation profile for one preservice teacher (George) while he taught three sport education (SE) seasons. The specific research questions we attempted to answer were as follows: (a) What forms did negotiations between the preservice teacher and his students take during the SE seasons? (b) To what extent did negotiations take place across the SE seasons? (c) How did negotiations differ between grade levels? The 47 lessons in George’s 6th, 7th and 8th grade SE season on handball were filmed and coded with the negotiation instrument, an event-recording systematic observation instrument designed to classify and categorize negotiations as they occur. A number of descriptive analyses were completed and Kruskal–Wallis tests were employed to determine whether there were differences between grades. Results revealed that negotiations initiated by George and his students were relatively infrequent and that there were few differences between the SE seasons. The types and foci of the negotiations initiated by George and his students were similar to those described in previous qualitative studies, as were the tactics used to initiate the negotiations. The patterns were of the negotiations in this study were also similar to those in previous qualitative research focused on SE. Suggestions for future research and the use of the negotiation instrument as a training tool are made.
