Summary School-based physical education (PE) is part of a whole-of-school approach to promote physical activity and its benefits for health. However, there are important gaps between the design and implementation of PE policies. This study aimed to describe the implementation fidelity and feasibility of school-based PE policies in Mexico. Data on implementation fidelity and feasibility was collected using semi-structured interviews (n = 17) and focus groups (n = 11) with high- (n = 7) and local-level (n = 122) stakeholders. We conducted a qualitative and triangulation content analysis. Feedback sessions were carried out with some participants. Barriers for implementation fidelity and feasibility of PE policies included inconsistencies in the time allocated to PE across schools and regions in the country; inconsistencies between teachers’ planning of PE classes and the actual class; a wide diversity of professional profiles among PE teachers; a limited number of PE professors, materials and facilities. To address these situations, some PE teachers were able to modify lesson plans and to design PE materials made from recycled materials. In conclusion, the current way in which school-based PE policies are being implemented in Mexico hinder PE from playing a major role in promoting physical activity among children and adolescents.

Validity Criteria

El objetivo del trabajo es analizar si los libros de texto de Educación Física «EF», publicados a partir de la Ley Orgánica 2/2006, de 3 de mayo, de Educación –LOE– para la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria «ESO», muestran desequilibrios en la representación de las diferentes actividades físicas que se proponen en los bloques de contenidos del currículo. En el presente estudio se exponen los resultados del análisis de ocho libros. Un total de 539 fotografías pertenecientes a las editoriales Anaya y Bruño: Pila Teleña. Para el análisis de contenido de las imágenes se utilizó un instrumento de observación elaborado ad hoc. La prueba piloto, la consulta a expertos/as y la triangulación con observadores/as son algunos de los criterios de cientificidad que avalan el instrumento. Los resultados muestran que las imágenes mayoritarias son las referidas al bloque de contenidos de «Juegos y deportes», y a modelos de actividad física deportivos alejados de la competición y del alto rendimiento, tendencia que ya había sido identificada en los contenidos visuales de la LOGSE.Palabras clave. libro de texto, educación física, foto, análisis de contenido, programa de estudios.Abstract. The objective of the study is to analyze whether the Physical Education «PE» textbooks published under the legal framework of LOE «Organic Law of Education -2/2006, 3rd May», for the Secondary Obligatory Education «ESO» show imbalances in the representation of different physical activities offered in curriculum content blocks. This study presents the results of the analyses of eight books. A total of 539 photographs from the Anaya and Bruño: Pila Teleña publishing companies. An ad hoc observation tool was used for the analysis of image content. Pilot testing, consulting with experts and triangulation with observers are some of the validity criteria that support the instrument. The results show that the images are mostly related to the «Games and Sports» content block and to physical activity and sport models not related to high performance competitions, trend which was already identified in the visual contents of the previous legal framework LOGSE.Keywords. textbook, physical education, photography, content analysis, curriculum.

This paper considers the current status of physical education and sport science in Indonesia from the perspective of the development of the professional knowledge base and research culture surrounding its practice. It seeks to place the field’s development within the broader context of international sport studies from 1945 to 2020. It identifies as major influences the process of globalisation and the growth of international sport as a significant political and economic entity. Physical education is acknowledged as a common historical base for the three modern strands within contemporary sports studies – medical /and health science, high performance studies, and sports business management. Future developments are considered in the context of the current pandemic. Covid19 and the world’s response to it has impacted on some key dimensions which underpin the current global sports economy – namely easy and convenient travel and the gathering of crowds in the widespread consumption of live sport. It is suggested that this might cause a major reset in the conduct of elite sport and sport festivals. The continuing growth of the physical activity and health sector is predicted and in the context of the serious challenges facing the sporting sector a case is made for increased resources to be moved back into the educational study and practice of sport and physical activity as a universal good.
