Efecto de la implementación de un taller de capacitación de educación física para docentes de aula

Abstract

In particular, Physical Education (PE) contributes to the integral development of the human being; however, education at the national level evidences different problems that make this area lose its importance, since it detects single-teacher institutions that do not have a professional in the area of PE, being the classroom teacher who provides the PE class, presenting deficiencies in the management and implementation of the Physical Education Curriculum, as well as the use of methodologies to teach the classes. Objective: To analyze the effect of conducting a training workshop on planning and implementation of the Physical Education curriculum for classroom teachers of the EGB Agustín Crespo Heredia school in the Girón canton, San Gerardo parish, during the 2023 - 2024 school year. Methodology: A pre-experimental research design with a quantitative and longitudinal approach was implemented. The direct participants were seven male and female teachers selected through a non-probabilistic convenience sampling; likewise, the indirect participants were 86 students who make up the General Basic Education level. Results: The results of our research after the workshop showed a positive impact, because significant differences were found regarding the inclusion of methodological strategies in the planning and development of PE classes based on the Physical Education Curriculum. On the other hand, regarding the level of student satisfaction, significant differences were obtained with p<0.05, thus demonstrating that students feel totally satisfied with the PE classes after the implementation of the workshop.
