The physical activities corresponding to the practical disciplines – taught throughout the 3 years of study for the bachelor’s degree university cycle within the Faculty of Physical Education and Sports of Galați – consist of various elements of the general and specific motric capacity, in order to cope with the respective physical demands. The study performed by the students of the Ist year is aimed at identifying the evolution of thiscomplementary motric amplitude, as a result of the direct influence exercised by the 6 practical disciplines subject to study. The outcomes achieved – analysed and interpreted differently gender wise – identify the limited and sometimes insignificant progress of the main tests used in evaluating the flexibility of the lower body muscles, thus proving that there is not any representative building-up throughout the study performed, but only a linearity of the already existing level.

The history of the acquisition of French citizenship by Indochinese university élites remains yet to be written because few researchers have looked at the role played by sport and physical education in developing the Vietnamese élite. These young students discovered such physical activities at school and many of them claimed judicial/legal equality with the French. This article will demonstrate that sports and physical education were the key stages in a strategy for certain Indochinese students to become French citizens. At the same time, this tactic generated much tension within the Vietnamese student community between the two world wars.

Analyze Data

This aim of this research is to explore and analyze to what extent the strategies to which physical education didacticsin Tunisia contributed to address the duplication of gender stereotypes. A typical approach with binary choiceregression was applied to analyze data obtained from questionnaires completed by 1326 adolescent students (724girls and 602 boys) from Tunisia. Results relieved that sport opportunities are limited by the separate expectations ofmales and females in physical education and sport settings. The analysis reveals that gender stereotypes affect girls'sports activities and that is particularly true for sports suitable for boys. The effect of the appropriated stereotype wassignificantly higher for sports practices perceived as masculine. The research ends with imminent based on thedistinction between gender skills and gender interest and implications for sport activities in order to enhanceparticipation, enjoyment, and wellbeing of people in physical education and sport activities. Hence, the need todevelop an internal logic of practice of sports activities by repeating individual and sexual differences.

Intellectual Knowledge

Physical Education as a subject – much like other subjects – has its own literary and educational content and the primary goal is the transference of that knowledge. In this respect, it is but one subject. At the same time it is unique, being the only subject dedicated to improving the body and the physique, yet “when we talk about the internal values of physical education, we only refer to its own literary and educational content. The meaning of this phrase includes the system of movement-based activities as well as the related intellectual knowledge” (RÉTSÁGI, 2011). During a Physical Education lesson students learn and practice movement-based activities, the importance of which is to improve their motor abilities, physical fitness (MÜLLER et al., 2013. MÜLLER et al., 2017) and mental health (BORBÉLY – MÜLLER, 2008). It may facilitate the prevention of numerous deformities or ailments, thus contributing to the preserving and of one’s health (MOSONYI et al., 2013., MÜLLER, 2015). For the past few years, multinational food companies (e.g. Danone and Nestlé) have also realized this, as they began to promote various programmes to support the regular physical activities of schoolchildren (RÁTHONYI – ODOR – RÁTHONYI, 2016). Physical Education in schools can only be considered effective if students come to appreciate and begin to feel the need for regular physical activities. For that purpose PE lessons are needed to be filled with content that is serious, requires effort (i.e. it should be a challenge that inspires improvement), but at the same time, it provides every student with feelings of success and enjoyment. This work, which at many times adapts to vastly different students (i.e. differentiates), is the duty of sports specialists and PE teachers (H. EKLER, 2013).

Competencias Transversales

El trabajo que se presenta recoge la experiencia de un proyecto de coordinación interdisciplinar entre tres asignaturas de la mención de educación física del grado en magisterio en educación primaria (actividades físicas individuales, actividades físicas de oposición y colaboración, y actividades físicas artístico-expresivas) en torno al contenido del acrosport. Se establecieron dos objetivos: identificar las diferencias significativas en cuanto a las calificaciones obtenidas en el proyecto según la matrícula en las tres asignaturas integradas; y analizar la valoración del alumnado sobre la aportación de las asignaturas implicadas en el proyecto, el trabajo autónomo y la adquisición de las competencias transversales. Participaron 66 alumnos/as de una media de edad de 22,90 años, 34 alumnos y 32 alumnas, todos ellos pertenecientes a la mención de educación física del grado de maestro de primaria de la facultad de educación de Zaragoza (universidad de Zaragoza). Para llevar a cabo el primer objetivo se diseñó una rúbrica para calificar por parte del profesorado los proyectos de acrosport. Para desarrollar el segundo objetivo se diseñó un cuestionario de valoración del alumnado sobre el proyecto. Los resultados extraídos a partir de las evaluaciones del profesorado muestran diferencias significativas positivas de las calificaciones del alumnado matriculado en las tres asignaturas implicadas. Los resultados procedentes de las valoraciones del alumnado sobre la aportación de las asignaturas implicadas revelan puntuaciones menores en la asignatura actividades físicas artístico-expresivas. Las valoraciones del alumnado en torno al trabajo autónomo y la adquisición de las competencias transversales obtuvieron altas puntuaciones. Abstract. This study is based on the experience of a coordinated interdisciplinary project around the content of acrosport involving three subjects (individual physical activities; competitive and collaborative physical activities; artistic-expressive physical activities) that form a part of the Physical Education module of the Primary Education Teaching Degree at the University of Zaragoza, Spain. There were two objectives: i) To identify significant differences in the grades obtained by the students in the three integrated subjects that comprised the project. ii) To analyze the evaluation and opinions of the students regarding the value of the subjects, the individual work and the acquisition of transversal competences. The study group was made up of 66 students with an average age of 22.9 years. There were 34 men and 32 women. All the participants were studying the Physical Education module of the Primary Education Degree at the Zaragoza University Faculty of Education. The teachers involved with the module designed a rubric to assess the acrobatic gymnastics project. To understand students’ opinions regarding the project, a questionnaire was designed. The results of the grades given to the students by the teachers showed significant differences in the three subjects. The results of the evaluations given by the students were lower for the subject of artistic-expressive physical activities. The students gave very high scores for the evaluation of individual work and the acquisition of transversal competences.

Motivation To Participate

AbstractMotivation is likely a pivotal factor contributing to sports participation. In India, because of the unsupportive sports/physical education environment, girls participate less in sports and other physical activities than boys. Therefore, embedding a planned healthy environment with good social support may maximize and, consequently, increase their participation in various sports and physical activities. Considering this unabated dialogue and assuming that motivation is a pivotal need for female sports participation, this study examined the differences in motivation to participate in sports among female adolescents across three age categories: early (11–14 years old), middle (15–18 years old), and late (19–21 years old) adolescence. A total of 528 female adolescents from Assam, India participated in the study. Participation in physical education courses was the criterion for the participants, and they were invited to complete the Participation Motivation Questionnaire. A factor analysis with direct oblimin rotation using the maximum likelihood extraction method yielded a 23-item, five-factor structure that exhibited moderate internal consistency. An ANOVA revealed significant differences across all three age categories regarding all the extracted factors. Moreover, t-tests of all sub-factors identified significant differences between the two achievement levels of district-level and inter-district-level athletes. This study provides sound psychometric and comparative results that are useful for education and formative reviews in applied settings and research purposes. It also serves as a measurement tool for embedding motivation to participate in physical activities and sports among female adolescents and the development of strategic ideas to assist female adolescents from less privileged areas to experience healthy growth and a healthy lifestyle.
