A new pedagogical model for adventure in the curriculum: part one – advocating for the model

Background: In recent years increasing attention has been given to models-based approaches to physical education as a way of promoting standards and particular types of learning through better alignment of teacher planning and delivery with pupil learning and achievement. However, little attention has been given to the specific contribution a pedagogical model for outdoor adventure education (OAE) has to make to pupils learning.

Purpose: This paper is presented in two parts. Part one is an advocacy paper and draws upon the broader discourse around models-based practice to make a case for the development of a pedagogical model for OAE. Drawing upon guidelines for models-based approaches to physical education, this paper considers the theoretical foundation, rationale, review of research findings and major theme that inform the development of a model of OAE.

Conclusions: The selected review of the research suggests that the major impact of OAE is upon the affective domain, particularly in relation to pupils developing a positive self-concept. Learning is also evident in the cognitive and physical domains, but this is secondary to learning in the affective domain. Drawing upon the analysis of the research literature, the major theme for the model is identified as ‘personal growth through adventure’ and ‘OAE’ is suggested as the name of the model. Part two of this paper builds upon these foundations to outline what a pedagogical model for OAE might look like in a secondary school in the UK.     

Neuromuscular and technical abilities related to age in water-polo players

Testing is one of the important tasks in any multi-step sport programme. In most ball games, coaches assess motor, physical and technical skills on a regular basis in early stages of talent identification in order to further athletes’ development. The purpose of the study was to investigate anthropometric variables and vertical jump heights as a free throw effectiveness predictor in water-polo players of different age groups. Two hundred and thirty-six young (10–18 years) male water-polo players partitioned into three age groups underwent anthropometric variables’ measures and squat- and countermovement-jump tests, and performed water-polo free throws. Anthropometric variables, vertical jump heights and throw speed – as a proxy for free throw effectiveness – resulted different over age groups. Particularly, throw speed changed from 9.28 to 13.70 m · s^?1 (+48%) from younger to older players. A multiple-regression model indicated that body height, squat-jump height and throw time together explain 52% of variance of throw speed. In conclusion, tall height, high lower limb power and throwing quickness appeared to be relevant determinants for effective free throws. Such indications can help coaches during talent identification and development processes, even by means of novel training strategies. Further research is needed over different maturity statuses.     

黑龙江省冰雪装备制造业创新成长影响要素与战略研究

随着我国成功申办2022年冬奥会,我国将大力发展冰雪运动,并会随之带动旅游、经济和冰雪装备制造业的发展。而冰雪装备制造业的发展直接影响我国冰雪体育事业的开展。采用文献资料、调查、系统分析等研究方法,针对黑龙江省冰雪装备制造业的创新成长问题进行研究,并对黑龙江省的冰雪装备制造业创新成长影响要素以及企业创新成长存在的问题进行分析与总结,认为黑龙江省冰雪装备制造业创新成长的总体状况是良好的,但企业存在资金短缺,经营、管理、技术等方面人才匮乏,企业产品结构单一、产品科技创新意识和能力不强,欠缺可持续发展理念等问题。通过分析影响冰雪装备制造业创新成长的原因,提出引进与自我创新相结合、注重品牌质量、发扬政府主导优势等战略,旨为冰雪装备制造业在黑龙江省的发展提供理论依据。     

运动员感恩的价值及其培养策略分析

运动员感恩教育是指运动队的管理者或者教练员根据运动员的个性特点,在训练和比赛的过程中运用一定的方法和手段,创造一定的感恩氛围,激发和引导运动员对知恩、感恩、报恩、施恩的价值认同,并付诸实践的道德教育过程。运动员感恩的价值主要体现在增加运动员的心理应对资源;促进运动员行为的积极变化;建立和维持运动员的人际关系网络。对运动员进行感恩教育的培养策略可以从以下3个方面进行:营造良好的感恩教育环境;创新感恩教育的方式、方法;提升感恩认知和行为。     

抓住教学评估契机,促进学校全面发展

教育评估是政府评价高等学校教学质量与办学水平的重要手段,也是社会了解高等学校办学质量的窗口之一。临沂师范学院将于2005年下半年接受国家教育部本科教学工作水平评估。为实现临沂师范学院“强配置、国际化、高质量、大规模”的办学目标,顺利通过水平评估,从现在开始,就要抓住契机,凝心聚力,充分认识本科教学工作水平评估的重要意义;全校动员、全员参与,真正把各项评建工作落到实处;科学安排、以评促建,促进临沂师范学院全面快速健康发展。

困境与破解:小学教师职业幸福感探析--以杭州市C小学为例

就杭州市C小学教师"职业幸福感"的调查显示,该小学教师存在职业倦怠、成长诉求、职业发展等方面的问题,教师缺乏幸福感。从教师管理的角度来看,其原因主要在于:"关爱缺位"减退了教师幸福指数,"诉求过场"阻碍了教师投入动力,"评价单向"局限了教师快乐发展。针对存在的问题,C小学实施了三个策略:一是学校推动,自上而下突进,营造幸福场域;二是教师行动,自下而上突击,贯通幸福维度;三是整体联动,上下结合突围,彰显幸福效度。三个策略的实施,有效推动了教师群体在学习方式、教科研能力、教育方法等方面的提升,激发了教师的内在驱动力和职业幸福感。
