Overview
Lately, individuals have been asking for support. It seems as though physical
educators are being asked to highlight connections between physical education, physical
literacy, and 21st century learning.
Introduction
All content areas should allow students opportunity to grow competent in:
Risk Taking
Collaboration Skills
Critical Thinking
Creativity
Communication
Civic Responsibility
Curriculum should be developed with the above skills in mind and teachers should
plan, implement and assess activities gained in addition to the development of these
skills. Of course, as students age, the complexity of both the content, skills and their
range of application (and evaluation) increase.
Lesson I
Not only are these 21st Century Learner skills important, they are natural skills to
foster in physical activity settings such as physical education.
In physical education, - the aim is to foster physical literacy in learners. Every
administrator should understand the differences in the following definitions. As well, it
is our job, as physical educators, to make sure that they do.
Physical Activity - exercise, sports, games, fitness, etc. Physical activity should occur
throughout a lifespan. A combination of strength and cardiovascular activity is great for
health and disease prevention. Cardiovascular activity is optimal when at moderate to
vigorous intensities for at least 30-60 minutes more days than not. There are specific
recommendations for different ages but this is just a brief summary.
Lesson II
Physical Literacy
These skills enable individuals to make healthy, active choices that are both
beneficial to and respectful of their whole self, others, and their environment.
Research has shown that one of the biggest health problems of the 21st century
is physical inactivity.
Not obesity (although that does lead to many health problems), but physical
inactivity (re: You can be very thin and still have health problems due to physical
inactivity). That’s why we should always focus on health prevention and avoid the “I just
want to fit into this outfit” mentality. Physical inactivity increases ,disease,
inflammation, and certainly stress (among others).
Lesson III
There is a health crisis on our hands - physical inactivity. This is one of the main
health concerns in the 21st century.
Collaborate - (with a partner, small group, large group and in a variety of settings)
Take Risks - (learn new skills, skill combinations, etc. that can directly impact
their health in a positive way)
Think Creatively and Critically - (in planning, participating, and evaluating
practice and performance)
Communicate - (Effectively using verbal and non-verbal communication skills in
authentic physically active settings)
Demonstrate Civic Responsibility - (for their health, for supporting the
community in healthy living initiatives, service learning options, etc.)
All content areas in school are important if we want to develop the whole child. I’m
not going to say that other subjects aren’t important - because they are.
In fact, it is how to integrate other content areas into physical education to support
our wonderful classroom colleague and our capable students. I’m simply pointing out
that physical education is an ideal location to foster 21st century learning - while also
helping to reverse the insane amounts of physical inactivity that exists in this 21st
century society.
In doing so, we’ll have students not only prepared for the global community they
are being raised in, they will be prepared to live life to its fullest potential. (And...I didn’t
even talk about how much money it would save taxpayers!). I agree that learners
should be developing the 21st century skills listed in this post. I also feel that their
physical literacy is every bit as important as the 21st century skills skills.
Introduction
Physical activity and sport have significant benefits for health, well-being and
youth development. Sport can be a fantastic tool for outcomes such as peace, holistic
education and social development.
Lesson I
OVEP OBJECTIVES
The programme aims to realize the Olympic ideal of building a better world
through sport by means of a curriculum that uses sport pedagogy and focuses on
values-based learning.
The cornerstone of the programme is the Olympic ideal that 'learning involves the whole
body, not only the mind'. OVEP uses Olympic sport traditions and positive sporting
values as the context for teaching life skills, values and life-long participation in sport for
a healthy lifestyle.
Excellence, Respect and Friendship are the three core values of Olympism and
are a central focus at the Olympic Games and Youth Olympic Games.
OVEP can enrich existing educational materials and help improve academic
performance in addition to civic responsibility, through its activity-based approach.
Respect for cultural diversity and educational systems are integral drivers of the
