El estudio tuvo como propósito conocer la relevancia para el profesorado de determinados objetivos curriculares y sus creencias sobre la importancia que tienen diversos factores para que el alumnado realice actividad física extraescolar. Participaron 173 docentes de Educacion Fisica (EF), distribuidos geograficamente en 9 Comunidades Autonomas. Se aplico un cuestionario disenado y validado por el grupo de investigacion.
Los resultados muestran que el profesorado opina que su ensenanza ha de orientarse sobre todo a dar respuesta a demandas sociales �\supradisciplinares. de las que tambien se ocupan otras materias, considerando que son menos prioritarios aquellos objetivos exclusivos de la EF (conocimiento disciplinar y rendimiento motor). Asimismo, creen que los factores con menor relevancia para que chicos y chicas practiquen actividad fisica extraescolar son aquellos que directamente recogen objetivos a los que la EF contribuye en exclusividad. El profesorado muestra falta de confianza en sus posibilidades mas especificas de influir en la adherencia hacia la actividad fisica de su alumnado.
The purpose of the study was to find out what relevance certain curriculum aims are given by teachers and their beliefs about the importance that several factors have on students taking after school physical activities.
One hundred and seventy-three Physical Education (PE) teachers from nine Autonomous Communities were interviewed. The questionnaire was designed and validated by the research team.
The results show that teachers think that their efforts must aim particularly at meeting �\supradisciplinary. social demands which are included in the planning of other subjects too, and they regard as less urgent those aims which are exclusive to PE (disciplinary knowledge and motor performance). Also, they believe that the factors with the lowest degree of relevance for boys and girls to practise after school physical activity are those included in aims belonging exclusively to PE. Teachers show lack of confidence in their specific possibilities to motivate the adherence of students to physical activity.
