Centradas en el deporte del Hockey y en el Ritmo y Expresión Corporal, fomenta actitudes positivas hacia la práctica de la actividad física.

This edition presents practical, field-tested ideas for teaching personal and social responsibility (TPSR) through physical activity in schools and other settings. Includes guidance in teaching affective and social moral goals, an in-depth look into teaching character development and values, and a method for helping students develop personal and social responsibility.

La inclusion de la Educacion Fisica como area comun para los alumnos en las etapas de la Educacion Primaria, Secundaria y el Bachillerato, hace necesaria, por una parte, la puesta al dia o reciclaje de aquellos profesionales dedicados al ambito educativo. Y por otra, la necesidad decrear una formacion inicial especializada para los maestros que tendran la responsabilidad de impartir el area en las escuelas de primaria. La presente obra pretende ser una aportacion en cuanto a formacion basica para la Reforma Educativa. Dirigida tanto a maestros especializados, profesores, licenciados y estudiantes de Educacion Fisica que, implicados en la responsabilidad de afrontar una nueva etapa educativa tanto del propio sistema en su conjunto como especifica del area, deseen tener al alcance una herramienta util en la que se recogen los principales postulados, estructura, finalidades, etc., de la nueva propuesta curricular. El contenido de la obra se estructura alrededor de siete grandes capitulos. A partir de los conceptos basicos sobre programacion y de su incidencia y de la estructura en el sistema educativo, siguiendo por la especificacion del modelo curricular adoptado por la LOGSE, se llega al area de Educacion Fisica para realizar un exhaustivo analisis de su planteamiento en el nuevo sistema educativo. Se finaliza con el estudio y la forma de articular los elementos que confluyen en el diseno de las unidades didacticas. Esta obra, ademas de intentar proporcionar una formacion amplia y general, pretende establecer las bases teoricas y dotar a los profesionales de los conocimientos y recursos adecuados para poder articular los diferentes factores del proceso de ensenanza-aprendizaje. Endefinitiva pretende dar las bases y los recursos para estructurar los elementos que constituy

This book offers a comprehensive synthesis of over 40 years of research on models in physical education to suggest Models-based Practice (MbP) as an innovative future approach to physical education. It lays out the ideal conditions for MbP to flourish by situating pedagogical models at the core of physical education programs and allowing space for local agency and the co-construction of practice. Starting from the premise that true MbP does not yet exist, the book makes a case for the term "pedagogical model" over alternatives such as curriculum model and instructional model, and explains how learners’ cognitive, social, affective and psychomotor needs should be organised in ways that are distinctive and unique to each model. It examines the core principles underpinning the pedagogical models that make up MbP, including pedagogical models as organising centres for program design and as design specifications for developing local programs. The book also explores how a common structure can be applied to analyse pedagogical models at macro, meso and micro levels of discourse. Having created a language through which to talk about pedagogical models and MbP, the book concludes by identifying the conditions - some existing and some aspirational - under which MbP can prosper in reforming physical education. An essential read for academics, doctoral and post-graduate students, and pre-service and in-service teachers, Models-based Practice in Physical Education is a vital point of reference for anyone who is interested in pedagogical models and wants to embrace this potential future of physical education.

Hundreds of grassroots groups have sprung up around the world to teach programming, web design, robotics, and other skills outside traditional classrooms. These groups exist so that people don't have to learn these things on their own, but ironically, their founders and instructors are often teaching themselves how to teach. There's a better way. This book presents evidence-based practices that will help you create and deliver lessons that work and build a teaching community around them. Topics include the differences between different kinds of learners, diagnosing and correcting misunderstandings, teaching as a performance art, what motivates and demotivates adult learners, how to be a good ally, fostering a healthy community, getting the word out, and building alliances with like-minded groups. The book includes over a hundred exercises that can be done individually or in groups, over 350 references, and a glossary to help you navigate educational jargon.
