Siempre que se saca a relucir el término competición, en la Educación Física escolar se arma un Gran revuelo entre aquellos docentes que la defienden como una manera de motivar a sus alumnos y mantenerlos activos, y aquellos que la desechan por considerar que los valores que comporta no son lo más adecuados, socialmente hablando, para el desarrollo de la personalidad. Del mismo modo, los defensores acérrimos de la coeducación y de los juegos cooperativos son criticados a menudo por considerar que sus actividades carecen del factor competitivo, un plus a modo de incentivo que el ser humano posee por propia naturaleza. Pero el hecho real es que en nuestras clases de Educación Física en los colegios hay cabida para ambos tipos de actividades, y el decantarse de forma extrema por el uso de unas u otras puede llevarnos a la no consecución de uno de nuestros objetivos principales, la educación integral del alumno. Es cierto que la competición es el mejor método para que los niños comparen sus capacidades o cualidades con el resto, pero también lo es que se convierte en un entorno en el que se pueden medir los propios resultados y la mejora realizada con el trabajo individual (sin por ello tener que estar pendientes de la actuación del resto de compañeros). Los juegos y actividades cooperativas, por mucho que nos empeñemos, no dejan al margen este tipo de comparaciones grupales o individuales, precisamente por tratarse de ejecuciones en las que un grupo de individuos deben colaborar hacia un fin común, bien sea todos realizando la misma acción o cada uno una diferente, pero, al fin y al cabo, estamos simplemente ante una suma de capacidades y cualidades individuales. Si una exposición continua a actividades puramente competitivas puede resultar perjudicial para la autoestima de los alumnos “menos capaces” (y con ello vendría la desmotivación y no participación en clase), el desarrollo exclusivo de actividades cooperativas también puede serlo para la de los “más capaces” (que mostrarían el mismo sentimiento de inutilidad y aburrimiento), por lo que resulta lógico pensar que hay que alejarse de ambos extremos y acercarse preferentemente a términos medios en lo que lo primordial sea la participación del alumno y no la naturaleza de las actividades. Así, el planteamiento metodológico del docente se convierte en la pieza clave para mantener la atención e interés de sus alumnos, que son dos de los pilares sobre los que se asienta el trabajo continuo de los mismos, y es de nuestra responsabilidad el saber cuándo convertir un ejercicio o un juego en cooperativo o cuándo llevarlos a cabo de forma competitiva. En este libro les presento la batería de juegos y actividades que más utilizo en mis clases, en campus deportivos y culturales, o en campamentos, precisamente por tratarse de situaciones generales que pueden convertirse fácilmente en un juego cooperativo, en un reto personal, o en una competición entre alumn@s.

Ensures that physical educators are fully armed with a comprehensive plan for incorporating instructional models in their teaching! Instructional Models for Physical Education has two primary goals for its readers. The first is to familiarize them with the notion of model-based instruction for physical education, including the components and dimensions that determine a model's pattern of teaching and how to select the most effective model for student learning in a particular unit. The second goal is to describe each of the instructional models in such a way to give readers enough information to use any of the models with confidence and good results. The book includes everything readers will need for planning, implementing, and assessing when teaching with instructional models. It will help readers incorporate research-based practices in their lessons, adapt activities to include students of varying abilities, and teach to standards. Models tied to NASPE standards! The author has revised the third edition to show how using the instructional models can help teachers meet specific NASPE standards. The book demonstrates the connection of NASPE standards with the models and clarifies that connection for students. In addition, a table in each of the model chapters shows explicitly how the model aligns with NASPE standards.

This timely practical reference addresses the lack of Spanish-language resources for mental health professionals to use with their Latino clients. Geared toward both English- and Spanish-speaking practitioners in a variety of settings, this volume is designed to minimize misunderstandings between the clinician and client, and with that the possibility of inaccurate diagnosis and/or ineffective treatment. Coverage for each topic features a discussion of cultural considerations, guidelines for evidence-based best practices, a review of available findings, a treatment plan, plus clinical tools and client handouts, homework sheets, worksheets, and other materials. Chapters span a wide range of disorders and problems over the life-course, and include reproducible resources for: Assessing for race-based trauma. Using behavioral activation and cognitive interventions to treat depression among Latinos. Treating aggression, substance use, abuse, and dependence among Latino Adults. Treating behavioral problems among Latino adolescents. Treating anxiety among Latino children. Working with Latino couples. Restoring legal competency with Latinos. The Toolkit for Counseling Spanish-Speaking Clients fills a glaring need in behavioral service delivery, offering health psychologists, social workers, clinical psychologists, neuropsychologists, and other helping professionals culturally-relevant support for working with this under served population. The materials included here are an important step toward dismantling barriers to mental health care.
