Service-learning (SL) is the subject of a growing number of studies and is becoming increasingly popular in physical education teacher education (PETE) programs. The objective of this study was to conduct a systematic review of the implementation of SL programs with PETE students. The databases used were Web of Science, SPORTDiscus (EBSCO), and SCOPUS. Articles were selected on the basis of the following criteria: (a) published in a peer-reviewed journal; (b) covers the use of SL programs with PETE students; (c) relates to physical education or physical activity programs; (d) availability of a full-text version in English and/or Spanish. Thirty-two articles met the inclusion criteria. Two types of findings were observed: firstly, findings relating to the study characteristics and objectives and, secondly, recommendations for improvement of this type of intervention. The objectives of the different studies focused on (a) the impact of the SL methodology on PETE students’ professional, social, and personal skills; (b) its impact on the community; (c) analysis of the effectiveness and quality of the programs. All but two studies analyzed the impact of SL on PETE, while only four analyzed community participants and only three analyzed the quality of the SL program. Recommendations for improving SL programs used with PETE students included: all stakeholders, e.g., students and community participants, should be studied and coordinated; the quality of the programs should be assessed, as studying the effectiveness of SL programs could help to attain the objectives of both students and the community; mixed methods should be used; and intervention implementation periods should be extended to provide more objective, controlled measurements.

Scholars argue that movement content knowledge in physical education teacher education (PETE) needs to be revisited and problematised. In this paper we develop the concept of movement capability representing a widened view of movement content knowledge. If teacher educators want to teach movement capability as an intrinsic educational goal in PETE there is an apparent need to consider what to teach, how it is taught and also how movement capability is understood by the learners. The aim of this paper is to analyse how PETE students experience the meaning of movement capability through the teaching in aquatics, dance and ice-skating. This study takes its departure from a number of previous empirical studies investigating the meaning of movement capability. Interviews with seven PETE students, divided into two focus groups, were conducted on three occasions. A phenomenographic analysis shows four qualitatively different ways of experiencing the meaning of movement capability. Major differences that can be seen when comparing the results of a previous study on physical education teachers and students in PETE are the aspect of subjective experiences and the aspect of the observer. In the main, the students do not seem to take into account an observer’s point of view to the same extent as the group of teachers. The results will hopefully contribute to a deeper and more complex understanding of what can be seen as movement capability in PETE and physical education, and thereby enhance development of the teaching and learning of this capability.

This study aimed to analyse the relationship between teaching/learning conceptions and reflective thinking in physical education teacher candidates. To this end, the study recruited, on a voluntary basis, 640 students who were in 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade in the Department of Physical Education and Sports Teaching in the School of Physical Education and Sports at Erciyes, Ahi Evran, Selcuk and Haci Bektas Veli Universities during the 2017-2018 academic year. As data collection tools, the study used the Teaching/Learning Conception Questionnaire, Reflective Thinking Tendency Scale and Socio-demographic Information Form. The data obtained through the scales was statistically analyzed using SPSS 20.0 software. The candidates’ personal information and inventory total points as well as factor points were presented by identifying frequency (f) and percentage (%) values. To indicate the relationship between the scores obtained on the scales, the Pearson Moment Product Correlation analysis (r) was conducted while multiple regression analysis was performed to determine whether the scores are predictive of each other. Consequently, it was found that the traditional conception of teaching and learning has no statistically significant relationship with any subscale of the reflective thinking tendency scale. On the other hand, the study revealed that the constructivist conception of teaching and learning is statistically correlated with reflective thinking in general and with the subscales open-mindedness and interrogative and effective teaching.

Os livros que possuem caráter pedagógico são intitulados de livros didáticos e surgem como uma forma de apresentar e organizar os conteúdos que serão abordados no processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Esses livros possuem os conteúdos, exercícios, ilustrações, exemplificações, isto é, múltiplas aplicabilidades pedagógicas que servirão de guia para o professor. O presente artigo tem como objetivo contextualizar a proposta do PNLD em diferentes componentes curriculares no Ensino Fundamental e comparar o componente curricular Educação Física em relação aos outros. Metodologicamente se apresenta como uma revisão bibliografica, cujo  principal objeto de análise nessa revisão é a literatura produzida acerca da temática. A pesquisa foi estruturada a partir da leitura de artigos e documentos que apresentam como tema principal o PNLD. A busca destes artigos foi realizada nas bases de dados Google Acadêmico e Scielo. Destes, foram selecionados 29 artigos, que foram lidos e analisados. Para a seleção dos artigos apontados neste ensaio, o critério de inclusão considerou: a) objetivos, b) métodos; e c) considerações finais ou conclusão. A partir da análise da literatura se notou que ainda há poucos estudos sobre o PNLD e o componente curricular Educação Física e que há “resistência” para utilização desses livros por parte dos professores. Compreende-se que a utilização dos livros didáticos pelo professor de Educação Física serve para dar direção, cabendo ao mesmo decidir a metodologia, as estratégias e o conteúdo que irá abordar, bem como a relevância que esses terão nas suas aulas.   Palavras-chave: Plano Nacional do Livro Didático.

These books have the contents, exercises, illustrations, examples, that is, multiple pedagogical applications that serve as a guide for the teacher. This article aims to contextualize a PNLD proposal in different curricular components in Elementary Education and to compare the Physical Education curricular component in relation to the others. Methodologically, it presents itself as a bibliographic review, which is the main object of analysis in this review and related literature. A research was structured from reading articles and documents that have PNLD as their main theme. The search for these articles was carried out in the Google Scholar and Scielo databases. 29 articles were selected, which were read and analyzed. For a selection of the articles indicated in this essay, the inclusion criteria considered: a) objectives, b) methods; and c) final considerations or conclusion. From the analysis of the literature, there are still few studies on the PNLD and the Physical Education curriculum component and that there is “resistance” to the use of these books by the teachers. It is understood that the use of textbooks by the Physical Education teacher serves as direction, being liable to the same to decide the methodology, the  strategies and content that will address, as well as the relevance that these will have in the classes.   Keyword: National Textbook Plan.

Abstract Our research focuses on describing what is really happening when a teacher wants to transmit to pupils - girls and boys - knowledge socially marked as masculine. To describe the processes involved in effective didactic interactions between a teacher a pupil and knowledge, we opted for qualitative methodology, consisting on a close observation of the didactic interactions of a teacher with his pupils (girls and boys). Analysis of the interviews focused especially on the nature of knowledge actually transmitted for girls and boys. The studied video sequences permitted to study the didactic interactions more precisely as are actually happening on the pitch. Both tools allowed us to identify the educational intentions of teachers (specialist or not); women or men in the teaching of football. The results show that teachers’ conceptions influence implicitly or explicitly the modalities of their interventions and the nature of football knowledge transmitted to pupils. This makes us think that the impact of social facts (backgrounds) on Tunisian teachers is great. This phenomenon may lock the physical education teacher in some representations modeling masculine and feminine stereotypes and affect his didactic and teaching contribution. Therefore, the teacher must be aware of the impact of the connotation that may have certain “masculine” practices on his interventions and consequently over the pupils learning (either boys or girls).
