  Ante situaciones de emergencia que obligan al conjunto de la población – en especial a los adolescentes – a permanecer en casa, la Educación Física (EF) representa una buena estrategia para contribuir a mantener los niveles de actividad física diarios desde casa. Por tanto, el objetivo de este trabajo fue mostrar una propuesta didáctica que, basada en el currículum de Educación Física de educación secundaria obligatoria, contribuya a promocionar la actividad física en casa. Para ello, esta propuesta se fundamenta en un enfoque competencial, incluyendo tanto tecnologías de la información y la comunicación como el establecimiento de retos, con la finalidad de abordar los diferentes contenidos curriculares relacionados con la calidad de vida y salud, condición física y motriz, juegos y deportes, expresión corporal y actividades físicas en el medio natural. La evaluación se plantea mediante una serie de instrumentos (rúbrica, diario, portafolio, hoja de observación y cuestionario) que permitan conocer el grado de consecución de los criterios de evaluación. Después de todo, esta propuesta abre nuevas vías para que el profesorado de EF desarrolle otras propuestas didácticas que faciliten no sólo seguir con las clases de educación física, sino la realización de actividad física en casa. Abstract. In emergency situations that force the whole population – particularly adolescents – to stay at home, Physical Education represents an optimal strategy to contribute to adolescents’ physical activity at their home. Therefore, this study aims at showing a didactic proposal that, based on Middle Secondary School Physical Education curriculum, promotes adolescents’ physical activity at home. For this end, this proposal relies on a competence approach, including both communication and information technologies and the establishment of challenging activities, in order to tackle the different curricular contents related to health and quality of life, physical and motor fitness, games and sports, body expression and physical activities in natural environment. Assessment focuses on a series of instruments (rubric, diary, portfolio, observation sheets, and questionnaire) allowing to evaluate the degree of accomplishment for each assessment criterion. Finally, this proposal offers new avenues for Physical Education teachers to develop other didactic proposals facilitating not only Physical Education classes, but also physical activity at home.

The purpose of the study was to explore change in children’s physical self-concept and self-reported physical activity over a school transition period, as well as motivational and interpersonal influences on these two outcomes. Data were collected from 545 children (mean age = 10.82, SD = 0.39, 51% female) at three time points before and after the United Kingdom secondary school transition. Multilevel modeling revealed that physical self-concept and physical activity showed different patterns of decline over the course of the study. Changes in the extent to which physical education teachers were perceived to provide psychological need support, peer focus on self-referenced learning and mastery, and changes in autonomous motives toward physical education classes were positively associated with these outcome variables. The present study provides novel insight into important motivational and interpersonal factors that may need to be targeted to prevent negative developmental patterns over a potentially challenging period for children.

La finalidad del presente estudio fue conocer las patologías más frecuentes que afectan a los profesores de Educación Física de E.S.O. de la provincia de Jaén, las bajas que habitualmente les mantienen alejados de su lugar de trabajo y las soluciones que proponen para mejorar su situación laboral y a la vez su salud y su calidad de vida. Participaron 216 docentes de los que se seleccionó al azar una muestra de 50 profesionales. La recogida de datos se llevó a cabo mediante una encuesta original auto cumplimentada. El 30% de la muestra sufrió alguna patología física en su lugar de trabajo. Las patologías más frecuentes fueron: esguince de tobillo (13%) y lumbalgia (10%). La duración de la baja laboral producida por estas patologías fue de 1 a 20 días. Las soluciones que propusieron para reducir la incidencia de lesiones fueron: mejorar los materiales y las instalaciones (72%) y menos horas de trabajo por jornada laboral (20%). En conclusión, las soluciones propuestas por los docentes para reducir la incidencia de estas patologías son competencia de la Administración General del Estado y, por consiguiente, es su labor resolver esta situación para mejorar la seguridad y la salud de sus trabajadores.Abstract: The aim of the present study was to investigate Physical Education teacher’s injuries related to their workplace conditions in the secondary schools from Jaen province, their effect in sick leaves, and the solutions suggested to enhance their health and quality of life. 50 teachers were randomly chosen from a sample of 216 instructors. All teachers filled in a standard questionnaire. 30% suffered any injury in their workplace. The most common injuries suffered were: uncle sprain (13%) and backache (10%). These injuries caused 1 to 20 days long sick leaves. The solutions suggested by those Physical Education teachers were related to change teaching material and building conditions (72%), and to reduce the timetable (20%). In conclusion and owing to legal regulations, General State Administration should improve Physical Education teacher’s workplace conditions in order to keep their safety and health.

<p class="resumoabstract">Acidentes e fatalidades podem acontecer desde simples contusões até as mais urgentes hemorragias e parada cardiorrespiratória. Os primeiros socorros realizados de forma adequada podem minimizar os agravos e até mesmo salvar vidas. No âmbito escolar, situações de emergência fazem parte do cotidiano e é essencial que Professores de Educação Física tenham um conhecimento básico para atender as necessidades escolares. O presente estudo teve como objetivo verificar o conhecimento dos Professores de Educação Física (EF) da rede pública de Ensino da Cidade de Santa Cecilia-SC com relação aos Primeiros Socorros (PS). Caracterizou-se em natureza descritiva, transversal, com análise quanti-qualitativa dos dados. Participaram do estudo 11 Professores de EF. Para a coleta de dados, foi desenvolvido um questionário abordando aspectos conceituais, procedimentos e atitudes referentes ao cotidiano profissional. Do total, apenas um professor não teve a disciplina de PS na graduação. Os professores na sua minoria se sentem aptos a prestar os PS e inclusive assumir as situações, demonstrando conhecimento satisfatório na teoria, mas na prática sentem-se inseguros para agir diante de situações mais graves. Destaca-se que mais de 80% sabem como agir em atendimentos menos agravantes. Já nas situações de parada cardiorrespiratória (RCP) e hemorragias, os mesmos relataram que necessitam de um treinamento mais atualizado. Em crianças principalmente eles não sentem muito seguros em prover o auxílio. Foi possível concluir que os professores de EF apresentaram um nível de conhecimento satisfatório na teoria, mas sugerem atualizações periódicas em forma de cursos.</p><p class="resumoabstract"><strong>Palavras-chave</strong>: Primeiros Socorros.

First aid performed properly can minimize the aggravations and even save lives. In the school context, emergency situations are part of the daily life and it is essential that Physical Education Teachers have a basic knowledge to carry out the school needs. This study verified the Physical Education (PE) Teachers knowledge from Santa Cecilia-SC public teaching related to first aid. It featured in descriptive nature, transversal, with quantitative and qualitative analysis of the data. Eleven PE teachers participated of the study. For the data collection, it was developed a questionnaire addressing conceptual aspects, procedures and attitudes concerning professional daily life. From the total, only one teacher did not have the first aid subject at the college. Teachers in their minority feel able to provide the first aid and even take on the situations, showing satisfactory theory knowledge, however in real life they feel insecure to act on before serious situations. It points out that more than 80% know how to act before less aggravating calls. Nonetheless, during cardiopulmonary arrest (CPR) and hemorrhages, they reported the need of an updated training. Mainly in children, they do not feel safe to provide the aid. It was possible to conclude that Physical Education Teachers showed a satisfactory level of knowledge in theory, however it suggest courses periodic updates.</p><p class="resumoabstract"><strong>Keywords</strong>: First Aid.

Purpose: Guided by Duda’s hierarchical conceptualization of the motivational climate that draws from self-determination and achievement goal theories, this study provides initial evidence of the psychometric properties of the Empowering and Disempowering Motivational Climate Questionnaire in physical education (EDMCQ-PE). Method: Questionnaire based with two samples of Welsh secondary school pupils. Results: Exploratory structural equation modeling provided a better fit of the data to the hypothesized model than confirmatory factor analysis. Moreover, a two-factor composite (i.e., empowering and disempowering) lower-order model provided an acceptable fit and clear parameter estimates. This two-factor model also demonstrated scalar gender measurement invariance. Discussion: The evidence from this study suggests the EDMCQ-PE is a promising scale for the assessment of secondary school pupils’ perceptions of the empowering and disempowering features of the motivational climate created by their physical education teachers. Conclusion: Moving forward, the statistical approach employed in this paper can inform future studies that develop questionnaire methodology in physical education and from an applied perspective; the EDMCQ-PE can be used by researchers and teachers to assess the motivational climate in PE and help inform the pedagogy underpinning teachers’ classes.

Visual culture affects the way people understand the world and themselves, contributing to the creation of certain roles and stereotypes, some of which are related to body image. This study focused on interrogating future physical education teachers’ beliefs about the body and physical activity to understand the construction of bodily subjectivities and their perceptions of how these are influenced by visual (physical) culture. Data were collected through the use of visual methods consisting of photo-elicitation and individual interviews with 23 students from a Primary Education Degree with a specialization in physical education at a Spanish university. Data were analyzed using thematic content analysis. The results of the study show that these future physical education teachers are aware of both the great influence of gender stereotypes and the values of consumerism in the field of physical activity stemming largely from the media, which inevitably will shape their future professional practice. However, the results also highlight how these future physical education teachers consider and position the subject of physical education as an important space where they could help students problematize and challenge these beliefs. We suggest that a focus on visual (physical) literacy is needed for future physical education teachers (and their students) to understand the world from a socially critical perspective and transform it in the interest of equity and social justice.

The overreaching aim of this thesis was to gain a better understanding of the students’ perceptions of the learning environment in upper secondary school physical education, with special focus on marginalized subgroups. More specifically, the intention was to explore whether students perceived their learning environment differently depending on their teachers’ gender, the learning support they received or the perceived competence they had. Despite the learning environment being a well-researched phenomenon in the more academic school subjects, there was a substantial knowledge gap concerning its influence in physical education. The individual works that form this ensemble aimed to occlude some of those gaps. In an effort to achieve the aforementioned aims, a new instrument measuring teacher learning support in the physical education context was also constructed and validated. The chosen methodology for the thesis was cross-sectional, comprising of a multicomponent self-report questionnaire. The data was analyzed using various analytical tools, including structural modeling analysis and MANCOVA between group comparisons. The participants were 1133 upper secondary school students (Mage = 17.2, SD = 0.86) from Norway (n = 554) and Iceland (n = 579), and 17 Norwegian PE teachers (11 males, 6 females). The sampling of participants was performed using a stratified procedure representing both urban, suburban and rural settlements. Multiple steps were taken to ensure adequate sample representability. The collective results of the individual papers indicate that the current organizational trends in PE are more in line with the needs of the highly competent students, and less so with the needs of the less competent students. This tendency intensifies the differences between these groups and may be one of the primary drivers behind the negative relationship between age and appreciation for the subject. Further, the students do not appear to be self- regulating their learning to the same extent as they are in other subjects, despite the teachers efforts to facilitate the behavior. The cause of this discrepancy likely being PE’s reputation as a recreational subject, underlined by the absence of homework and the playful nature of the lessons. Additionally, the role of the teacher’s gender in influencing the PE experience seems to be exaggerated. Gender matching and positive discrimination of female PE teachers are therefore unlikely to improve the learning environment of female students. The concluding recommendations are multitudinous and include suggestions to all the stakeholders of the subject. They include an appeal to the policymakers to rely more heavily on the body of research when implementing or adjusting policy, a plea to the teaching institutions educating the physical education teachers to emphasize formative teaching practices to a greater extent in their program, in order to promote learning behavior, and a call to the physical education teachers to address the various challenges related to the less interested and less competent students by reducing the benefits of sporting experience and ameliorating the current curriculum implementations by introducing more non-traditional sports and activities.
