    Study Notes

    Movement Education Overview

    • Aims to develop motor skills through physical activity.
    • Focuses on three learning domains: cognitive, psychomotor, and affective.

    Evidence Supporting Movement Education

    • Increased hours of physical activity correlate with higher classroom engagement (Brown, 2008).
    • Morning physical activity enhances concentration in class due to stimulated neural functions.
    • Movement education has been linked to improved confidence, self-esteem, and positive developmental outcomes (Abel and Bridges, 2010).

    Historical Influencers in Movement Education

    • Francois Delsarte

      • Advocated for the connection between mind, body, and spirit.
      • Viewed expression through movement related to emotions.
      • Introduced parallelism in movement, referring to simultaneous motion of two body parts.
    • Liseloott Diem

      • Co-founded Deutsche Sporthochschule Köln to train teachers in sports and physical education.
      • Emphasized creating an environment for children to explore movement freely.
      • Utilized a range of equipment for diverse movement experiences.
      • Encouraged teachers to prompt exploration through questions.

    Key Movement Concepts

    • Movement Elements:

      • Location: Self-space and general space.
      • Direction: Forward, backward, sideward, and arcs.
      • Level: Low, medium, high.
      • Pathways: Straight, curved, and zigzag.
      • Planes: Sagittal, frontal, and transverse.
    • Effort Components:

      • Time: Fast, slow, and acceleration.
      • Force: Hard and soft.
      • Flow: Bound and free.
      • Focus: Direct and indirect.

    People, Position and Timing

    • People: Individual, partners, groups; geometric formations like triangle and circle facilitate activities.
    • Position: Concepts include above, below, over, and under which assist in understanding movement dynamics.
    • Timing: Relationships like unison, contrasting, and sequential movements; critical for developing skills.

    Movement Framework

    • Body Parts: Involves knowledge of common segments and joints of the body.
    • Body Shapes: Six types including narrow, wide, round, twisted, symmetrical, and asymmetrical.
    • Pathways in Movement: Straight pathways used in racing; zigzag pathways in activities like tag.

    Planes of Movement

    • Essential for analyzing and communicating movements correctly; relevant to fundamental motor skills.
    • Frontal Plane: Divides body front and back; relevant in lateral movements.
    • Sagittal Plane: Divides body into right and left; involved in forward and backward movements.

    Goals of Movement

    • Three primary types of interactions:
      • Cooperative: Working together harmoniously.
      • Collaborative: Joint efforts towards a common goal.
      • Competitive: Engaging in rivalry, striving against others.

    Concluding Concepts

    • Understanding the categorized concepts aids in enhancing physical education curricula and improving children's movement-related experiences and skills.
