Sports are organised into seasons, and students are given a further level of responsibility than just the role of the player. This serves to further their appreciation for the processes that go into succeeding at a sport and the numerous stakeholders present (Wallhead and O'Sullivan, 2005).]]> 2019-02-12 20:06:46 UTC https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/330544428 Roles in sport education 115528487 https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/330544494 "Sport Education seeks to make sport experiences in physical education more real for all students." (Siedentop, Hastie and van der Mars, 2011).

Week on week students will fulfil various roles as part of a team, encouraging a holistic approach to optimising performance in athletics. The Sport Education model develops student autonomy by putting them at the centre of the learning experience and giving them responsibility over their own learning (Kinchin, 2003).]]> 2019-02-12 20:06:53 UTC https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/330544494 Literature behind Sport Ed 115528487 https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/330544758 Hastie, Martinez de Ojeda & Calderón Luquin (2011)
  • Meta-analysis of 38 research papers regarding the efficacy of Sport Education
  • Sport Education now very widespread as a teaching model
  • Higher level of learning opportunities in terms of quality and quantity
Wallhead & O'Sullivan (2006)
  • SE facilitates student engagement and student-centred learning
  • Emphasis on persistent team membership
  • Personal and social development in the form of student responsibility, cooperation and trust skills promoted
Kinchin (2006)
  • Increase in student participation and motivation
  • Students report improvement in tactical and technical ability
  • Teachers report success of festivity in maintaining student interest
Mechikoff (2006)
  • Shows timeline of Sport Education right back to ancient history
  • Addresses mind and body relationship in Sport Education and how this was relevant to philosophers like Plato and Aristotle

  • perform competently, confidently and safely in a range of athletics events
  • demonstrate activities to enhance performance in athletic events, including physical and mental preparation
  • take responsibility for improving their own performance, based on personal strengths and developmental needs 
]]> 2019-02-12 20:07:36 UTC https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/330544834 Athletics in CCS 115528487 https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/330545365 In Carrigaline Community School there is a strong tradition of athletics. This sets the scheme up nicely to incorporate various elements of the Sport Education model.
  • Advocating and promoting the sport in the school and wider community
  • Preserves and enhances sport culture within the school
(Siedentop, Hastie and van der Mars, 2011)

Furthermore, the festivity aspect of the model's framework will be easy to implement, as posters of the school's accomplishment in various track and field events fill the halls of the school. Students can be encouraged to view these walls, see students in the same school as them performing at the highest level and aspire to reach the same levels. This serves to further the festive approach to the model as students develop a holistic enthusiasm for the sport.

Furthermore, I have been fortunate enough to be exposed to athletes of the top level.

While running and relay events will predominantly develop skills, throwing events such as javelin and shot put will expose students to non-locomotor (twisting, turning, pushing) and manipulative (throwing, holding, passing (relay)) skills.

Furthermore, the above graphic shows the transferability of skills such as throwing. While javelin technique will be practiced, students will be made aware of how this skill is reflected in a number of different sporting contexts (O'Keeffe et al., 2007)]]> 2019-02-12 20:10:52 UTC https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/330546446 Key skills 115528487 https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/330546544 Being literate: Students become literate sportspeople

Our students have so much to deal with that past generations could never have imagined. They live in a constant hyperconnected state (Floridi, 2015). Therefore the onus is on us in education to prepare students who already live in this world not only to be digitally literate but also digitally fluent.

    Digital literacy is knowing how to use ICT and what to do with them, whereas a digitally fluent person can decide when and why to use ICT, recognising the greater impact of digital technology use on a seemingly infinite community (The New Zealand Curriculum, 2016).

    Chambers et al. (2019) argue that we are at a point of information saturation, and students are quite overwhelmed by how connected everything is. In dealing with this the tendency can be to have a knee-jerk reaction and ban all use of ICT to allow students to process information. However, Chambers et al. (2019) argue the importance of preparing children and adolescents for this world by helping them become digitally fluent and ultimately digitally well.]]>     2019-02-14 03:04:59 UTC https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/331132276     ICT and Sport Education - Practical application with Class Brian 115528487 https://padlet.com/115528487/SportEducation/wish/331132391 While the use of ICT is limited with Class Brian as they are not allowed to use phones and there is no projector in the hall, there is plenty of scope for allowing students to develop digital literacy and digital fluency through this model
