Key Concept: Criticality
2016
In English language education, the word 'critical' can be used in different ways, qualifying different phenomena. Thus, the development of 'critical thinking' is a goal in some ELT classrooms or teacher education programmes; there is also 'critical pedagogy', which seeks empowerment and social transformation; and 'critical perspectives' can be taken towards the enterprise of ELT itself. Here, we will try to show how these apparently different forms of criticality are linked together.
Innovación pedagógica en educación física: una propuesta de orientación basada en AICLE
2015
In today's society, languages, especially English language, have acquired great relevance due to the unstoppable process of globalization. Schools must adapt to these kind of social demands. Because of this fact, methodologies such as Content Led Integrated Language Learning (CLIL) are being used more and more often. Here a didactic unit for working orienteering by using CLIL is proposed in order to demonstrate that Physical Education (PE) provides a suitable context in which the use of the language is significant and relevant. Through this proposal, it is shown the great potential of PE to enhance language learning.
Uses of Code-Switching in Four-Year-Old Monolingual Children's Second Language Acquisition
2013
Code-Switching is a phenomenon in which ¿speakers rely on juxtaposition of grammatically distinct subsystems to generate conversational inferences¿ according to Gumperz (1982:97). The broad use of code-switching in diverse contexts and with at least two languages in contact has made this linguistic device be one of the most studied behavioural features of bilinguals¿ speech (Gregori and Alcantud.2011). Additionally, code-switching, seems to have an important communicative function, that is why it is a very interesting aspect of sociolinguistics to be researched.Nowadays, the development of educational provision is reaching more and more social strata. This fact, together with a wider use of…
David Lasagabaster, Aintzane Doiz and Juan Manuel Sierra, eds. 2014. Motivation and Foreign Language Learning. From Theory to Practice. 190 pp. Amste…
2015
The present volume, edited by Lasagabaster, Doiz and Sierra, brings together different perspectives on the interrelation between motivation and foreign language learning. Following the editors' introduction, which carefully summarizes the main ideas explored in each chapter¿hence my decision not to organize this review in the same way, but rather to focus on a general aspect that has the potential to encompass all of them¿the volume is divided into two parts, each of four chapters. Whereas the first part is theoretically oriented, the second comprises individual studies. The volume ends with the editors' epilogue, in which an attempt is made to present a unified reading of the contributions
Teaching Physical Education in English using CLIL Methodology: A Critical Perspective
2015
Abstract Relatively little research has been carried out in Europe on teaching Physical Education (PE) in English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) using the CLIL method. Although CLIL is widely used throughout Europe, the PE content is often limited merely to technical-practical skills without any significant links to a socio-cultural context, critical thinking and/or knowledge acquisition. The aim of this study is to integrate CLIL with the epistemological perspective of critical pedagogy applied to physical education (Kirk, 2014). A theoretical “deconstructive” method will be used to provide guidelines for teaching physical education through CLIL. A cultural content based on language, culture and…

Influence of Walking as Physiological Training to Improve Respiratory Parameters in the Elderly Population.
2022
Walking as physiological training is reported to be an effective activity in order to beneficially influence and slow the onset of aging in healthy elderly people. However, insufficient evidence exists on how walking influences lung function in seniors. In our study, we aim to evaluate the effect of different types of walking on lung function in healthy seniors. The PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and EBSCO Essentials databases were searched, while the methodological quality was assessed by the RoB2 tool. A total of seven studies (RCTs) published between 2002–2022 that met the eligibility criteria were analysed in this review. All participants were older adults without any specific associate…
Análisis de una intervención educativa para el desarrollo de la autodeterminación en una alumna con síndrome de Down
2021
Resumen Antecedentes: uno de los mayores problemas a los que se enfrentan los jóvenes con discapacidad intelectual es su bajo nivel de autonomía. Objetivo: el objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la eficacia de una intervención basada en el uso de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TIC) para alcanzar mejoras en autodeterminación en una estudiante con síndrome de Down. Método: la intervención está basada en el diseño y aplicación de una página web diseñada teniendo en cuenta las necesidades específicas de la participante, su nivel de competencias, y sus intereses. Esta herramienta TIC permite a la estudiante trabajar de manera autónoma tres áreas de conocimiento distintas y ot…
El uso de tecnología móvil y APP en educación física
2017
La literatura documenta que los educadores físicos tienen actitudes pro-tecnológicas, interés y conocimientos similares al resto de profesorado. Sin embargo, el uso de TIC, especialmente en la fase activa es menor. Esta barrera de uso se explica porque el profesorado dispone de tecnología tradicional, anclada en espacios fijos, pero se carece de tecnología móvil y portable que pueda llevarse al lugar donde se sitúa la acción: patios y gimnasios. El objetivo del estudio fue conocer qué dispositivos móviles puede usar el profesorado durante las clases y hacer una recopilación y análisis de las aplicaciones que puede utilizar para diseñar, gestionar y evaluar la docencia. Se hizo una revisión …
Educación Física bilingüe y pedagogía crítica: una aplicación basada en el Judo
2015
Considering the impact that the introduction of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) is having in Europe, this paper presents a model of application for Physical Education in English. This model improves particularly the acquisition of a foreign language and proposes at the same time a comprehensive learning scenario based on the principles of the critical pedagogy. From the 4Cs framework of CLIL methodology («content», «communication», «culture» and «cognition») the paper offers an in-depth reflection on the possibilities of introducing the critical pedagogy approach to Physical Education, thus increasing its educational potential. First, we argue about the links between critica…
