This course is aimed at Physical Education teachers and Physical Activity and Sport professionals who work in formal and non-formal education contexts who want to expand their knowledge and resources, taking into account the contributions of educational research and innovation from Neuroscience in relation to the impact of Physical Activity on cognitive development and performance and the improvement of learning processes.
The motor proposals that we apply in educational contexts integrate cognitive demands that affect cognitive development and performance during childhood and adolescence. Knowing which factors and characteristics of these motor proposals determine this incidence, how to enhance the effect, master it and apply it adds a new dimension to our interventions, becoming a means for optimizing learning processes.
Participants will receive varied training, combining theory, presented through face-to-face and online conferences, and practice, developed through workshops taught by specialists in the different topics of the course.
Therefore, the course is based on the knowledge and practical application of the different scientific evidence and the corresponding proposals for educational innovation through training adjusted to the realities of the Physical Education teachers and trainers who participate.
- Cognitively enriched motor activity
- Physical exercise and learning
- Executive functions in movement
- Facilitating learning from motor experiences
- Physically active learning (afa)
- Integrated motor skills
- Physical exercise and cognitive benefits
- Movement and school
- Common cognitive processes
- Active breaks and afa
