La Educación Física tiene gran importancia en todas las etapas de enseñanza, sin embargo al ser el periodo de la Educación Infantil en el que el movimiento es el estado natural de los niños, queremos con este libro darle el lugar que corresponde a la materia especificando sus contenidos para ayudar al profesorado a mejorar la enseñanza en este periodo. Este manual va dirigido a los estudiantes del Grado de Educación Infantil y de los Ciclos Formativos en Educación Infantil que trabajarán en centros educativos o Escuelas Infantiles, respectivamente, para quienes es necesario acudir a fuentes bibliográficas que faciliten y mejoren su formación. Asimismo, servirá de referencia al profesorado en activo. La transferencia del conocimiento se produce en esta obra con base al carácter empírico-descriptivo de los doce capítulos que la conforman, convirtiendo los trabajos de investigación o/e innovación en que se apoyan los autores en una teoría dinámica que ayuda a la lectura y les confiere una visión diferente que mejorará el uso docente. Desde la definición de la etapa de Educación Infantil y de la Educación Física hasta la elaboración de sesiones de clase, los distintos capítulos recogen los modelos de enseñanza y los contenidos específicos de la etapa, destacando los que relacionan música y movimiento, así como las definiciones de psicomotricidad, motricidad y neuromotricidad. Con estas páginas deseamos contribuir a mejorar la formación y el conocimiento del profesorado que repercutirá en una educación infantil de calidad.

This book offers a comprehensive synthesis of over 40 years of research on models in physical education to suggest Models-based Practice (MbP) as an innovative future approach to physical education. It lays out the ideal conditions for MbP to flourish by situating pedagogical models at the core of physical education programs and allowing space for local agency and the co-construction of practice. Starting from the premise that true MbP does not yet exist, the book makes a case for the term "pedagogical model" over alternatives such as curriculum model and instructional model, and explains how learners’ cognitive, social, affective and psychomotor needs should be organised in ways that are distinctive and unique to each model. It examines the core principles underpinning the pedagogical models that make up MbP, including pedagogical models as organising centres for program design and as design specifications for developing local programs. The book also explores how a common structure can be applied to analyse pedagogical models at macro, meso and micro levels of discourse. Having created a language through which to talk about pedagogical models and MbP, the book concludes by identifying the conditions - some existing and some aspirational - under which MbP can prosper in reforming physical education. An essential read for academics, doctoral and post-graduate students, and pre-service and in-service teachers, Models-based Practice in Physical Education is a vital point of reference for anyone who is interested in pedagogical models and wants to embrace this potential future of physical education.

A range of collaborative governance mechanisms has developed in many policy arenas in the past decade. The study on governance for health in the 21st century tracks governance innovations that have been introduced to address priority determinants of health and summarizes them as five strategic approaches to smart governance for health. The study relates the emergence of joint action of the health sector and non-health sectors, of public and private actors and of citizens to achieve seminal changes in 21st-century societies. They include a new understanding of health and well-being as key features of what constitutes a successful society and vibrant economy and the higher value placed on equity and participation. The study further describes the type of structures and mechanisms that enable collaboration and outlines the new role that health ministers and ministries and public health agencies need to adopt in such a challenging policy environment.

This book explores the theoretical foundations of gamification in learning and education. It has become increasingly difficult to engage and motivate students. Gamification not only makes learning interesting, but also allows game players to solve problems and learn lessons through repeated attempts and failures. This "positive failure" can motivate students to attempt a difficult mission. Chapters in this volume cover topics such as the definition and characteristics of gamification, gamification in learning and education, theories, research on gamification, framework, strategy, and cases.
