Orienteering as a sporting and competitive as well as recreational and educational activity is increasingly being carried out by various sports associations, hikers and other amateur sportspeople. Its implementation involves class and subject teachers in schools, especially those involved in the GLOBE programme. The aim of this paper is to examine the presence of orienteering or some of its elements in the school and subject plans and programmes of both lower and higher grades of primary as well as secondary schools in the Republic of Croatia, and a possible role of orienteering in promoting cross-curricular teaching. Because of the desire to supplement the teaching methods and forms of work with more work outside the classroom, the purpose of this paper is to contribute to forming a justified demand for incorporating orienteering in the primary school curriculum in Croatia. Since orienteering is particularly significant from the point of view of Geography and Physical Education teaching, the existing curricula of the two subjects have been analysed to identify possible cross-curricular links. This paper presents the results of the research conducted in 2017 and 2018 on a sample of 146 Geography and Physical Education teachers from Croatia. The results indicate that teachers are familiar with these activities. Although they recognize the potential in terms of the wish to integrate some contents into teaching plans and programmes, as well as contribute to cross-curricular teaching, the content of orienteering is implemented very rarely or not at all in primary, and even less, in secondary schools. The results of this research also point to the lack of class and subject teacher competences and their poor knowledge of this area.Key words: correlation; Geography; orienteering; out-of-classroom teaching; Physical Education.Orijentaciju kao sportsko-natjecateljsku, rekreacijsku ili edukacijsku aktivnost sve učestalije provode različite sportske udruge, planinari i drugi rekreativci. U njezinu provođenju sudjeluju iučitelji i nastavnici u kolama, naročito onima uključenim u GLOBE program.Cilj rada je ispitati uključenost orijentacijskog trčanja ili nekih njegovih sadržaja u programe rada kola i predmeta u viim razredima osnovne kole i u srednjim kolama Republike Hrvatske te moguću ulogu orijentacijskog trčanja u poticanju interdisciplinarnosti u nastavi. Zbog želje za upotpunjavanjem nastavnih metoda i oblika rada većom količinom rada izvan učionice, svrha rada je pridonijeti oblikovanju argumentiranog zahtjeva za ugrađivanje orijentacijskog trčanja u kurikul osnovne kole u Hrvatskoj. Budući da je orijentacijsko trčanje naročito značajno s gledita nastave Geografije i Tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture, radi identificiranja njihovih korelacijskih veza analizirani su postojeći nastavni programi dvaju predmeta. U radu se iznose i rezultati istraživanja provedenog 2017. i 2018. godine na uzorku od 146 učitelja i nastavnika Geografije i Tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture iz Hrvatske. Rezultati ukazuju da su učitelji upoznati s ovom aktivnoću pa iako prepoznaju njezin potencijal u smislu želje za njenom ugradnjom u planove i programe rada kao i doprinos međupredmetnoj korelaciji, sadržaji orijentacijskog trčanja se vrlo rijetko ili uopće ne provode u osnovnim, a jo manje u srednjim kolama. Rezultati ovog istraživanja također su ukazali na nedostatak kompetencija učitelja i nastavnika i njihovo nesnalaženje u ovom području.Ključne riječi: Geografija, korelacija, orijentacija, rad izvan učionice, Tjelesna i zdravstvena kultura

Grounded in SDT, several studies have highlighted the role of teachers’ motivating and demotivating styles for students’ motivation, learning, and physical activity in physical education (PE). However, most of these studies focused on a restricted number of motivating strategies (e.g., offering choice) or dimensions (e.g., autonomy support). Recently, researchers have developed the Situations-in-School (i.e., SIS-Education) questionnaire, which allows one to gain a more integrative and fine-grained insight into teachers’ engagement in autonomy-support, structure, control, and chaos through a circular structure (i.e., a circumplex). Although teaching in PE resembles teaching in academic courses in many ways, some of the items of the original situation-based questionnaire (e.g., regarding homework) are irrelevant to the PE context. In the present study, we therefore sought to develop a modified, PE-friendly version of this earlier validated SIS-questionnaire—the SIS-PE. Findings in a sample of Belgian (N = 136) and French (N = 259) PE teachers, examined together and as independent samples, showed that the variation in PE teachers’ motivating styles in this adapted version is also best captured by a circumplex structure, with four overarching styles and eight subareas differing in their level of need support and directiveness. The SIS-PE possesses excellent convergent and concurrent validity. With the adaptations being successful, great opportunities for future research on PE teachers (de-)motivating styles are created.

This study aimed to identify the effectiveness of teaching the athletics program for young children (Kids Athletics) in the content of school PE curricula for grades (1-4) in the Sultanate of Oman from the point of view of PE teachers. To achieve the objectives of the study, the researchers used the descriptive approach by applying a questionnaire to measure the effectiveness of teaching the athletics program for young children on a sample of (378) male and female teachers for grades (1-4) in different educational governorates. The study found that the degree of effectiveness of teaching the athletics program for young children (Kids Athletics) from the teachers’ point of view is very large, reaching (4.30) and that the degree of teachers’ awareness of the program is very large, reaching (4.20), and the responses of the sample members about the availability of program implementation requirements reached (3.81), and there were no statistical differences at the level of significance (α = 0.05) between the arithmetic averages of teachers' responses to the effectiveness of teaching the program and teachers' awareness about the program according to academic qualifications and years of experience for teachers due to the variables of academic qualifications and years of experience for teachers. In light of the results of the study, the researchers recommend the importance of including the athletics program for youngsters (Kids Athletics)  in the curricula of the fifth and sixth grades of the school PE subject due to its importance and contribution to achieving the objectives of the subject and developing motor abilities, and the need to continue in the qualifying and training programs to develop the capabilities of PE teachers in teaching the program and to ensure that schools are equipped with the necessary equipment to teach the suggested program, and provide the requirements for its implementation within the academic units of the curriculum.

BACKGROUND Physical education teachers often experience stress and job disengagement. OBJECTIVE This study aims to develop a measurement scale of job disengagement among physical education teachers and to present an explanatory model by presenting the mediating role of perceived stress as a major factor in disengagement and job satisfaction, also the relationship between family and work as an indirect effect for this phenomenon. METHODS A total of 268 primary and secondary school physical education teachers, made up of 165 men (54.46%) and 138 women (45.54%) participated voluntarily in our study. The measuring instruments are the work disengagement scale, the Perceived stress scale, the Work-family conflict scale (WFC), the family-work conflict scale (FWC), and the scale of dissatisfaction at work. RESULTS the Arabic language versions of the WFC and the FWC had reasonably adequate psychometric properties which were justified by confirmatory analyzes and by the measurement of reliability, convergent and discriminant validity through the measurement model in SmartPls. Likewise, the structural model established with the SmartPLS software confirmed strong links of the concepts FWC, WFCS, the questionnaire of job satisfaction, the perceived stress with the disengagement of work among teachers of physical education. CONCLUSIONS There is a growing interest in helping teachers cope with the daily pressures of work and family. A positive organizational context is a context with clear values regarding work priorities that constitutes the basis of a feeling of shared responsibility and professional support.Good conditions can act as protective factors reducing work stress and positively influencing personal well-being, work attitudes, work commitment, and professional efficiency. Additional teacher research is needed to examine the relationship between perceived work stress and the role of families, also the extent to which this association can have a significant impact on teachers' commitment to work.
