Study Notes
Movement Education Overview
- Movement education focuses on developing motor skills through physical movement.
- Aims to educate individuals across three learning domains: cognitive, psychomotor, and affective.
Evidence Supporting Movement Education
- Research by Brown (2008): Increased hours of physical activity per week correlate with greater classroom engagement.
- Morning physical activity enhances neural functions, improving children's concentration.
- Study by Abel and Bridges (2010): Engagement in movement education correlates with higher confidence and self-esteem.
- Movement education positively impacts social, cognitive, and emotional development.
Historical Influences in Movement Education
- Movement education emerged in the 1800s to early 1900s, emphasizing the body as an expression of movement.
Key Contributors to Movement Education
- Francois Delsarte:
- Advocated for the connection between mind, body, and spirit.
- Viewed movement as an integration of time, space, and motion.
- Proposed that expressive movements should be connected to the underlying emotions.
- Introduced the concept of parallelism in movement, where two body parts move simultaneously in the same direction.
