- Adapted sports in physical education: a pedagogical aproach to promoting awareness of diversityPublication . Silva, João; Sousa, José; Coelho, Filipe; Rodrigues, Ana; Rodrigues, AnaPhysical Education plays an important role by enabling pupils to engage directly in a wide range of learning activities (Del Val Martín et al., 2023). However, certain barriers may limit the active participation of pupils with special needs. Robertson and colleagues (2018) note that children with educational needs tend to be less active in PE classes than their peers. The growing appeal and acceptance of adapted sports makes them a valuable addition to any Physical Education program and presents them as an effective strategy for promoting inclusion by: (i) enhancing the participation of pupils with special needs; and (ii) raising awareness among peers without disabilities through direct experience of sensory and motor limitations. This study aims to analyze the importance of including adapted sports in Physical Education, identifying the associated benefits for all pupils, the challenges faced by teachers, and the strategies that can enhance more inclusive and effective pedagogical practices. The research follows a qualitative methodology, adopting a descriptive review approach, as the objective is to collect and synthesize existing knowledge on the topic. The findings suggest that the inclusion of adapted sports in Physical Education promotes social, physical, and psychological benefits for pupils both with and without disabilities. However, challenges such as a lack of teacher training and inadequate resources appear to hinder the effective implementation of these practices. The use of inclusive pedagogical strategies can help to overcome these barriers, making Physical Education more equitable and inclusive.
- Inovação e tecnologia na educação física: propostas de promoção de hábitos saudáveisPublication . Baeta, Marta; Silva, Luís; Coelho, Filipe; Rodrigues, Ana; Rodrigues, AnaOs benefícios de uma prática de atividade física regular são amplamente reportados na literatura, nomeadamente na prevenção de patologias cardíacas, da diabetes tipo 2, e de cancro, estando igualmente associada a um melhor funcionamento cognitivo e ao bem estar (OMS, 2020). A Educação Física, afirma-se como crucial para promover um estilo de vida saudável e o desenvolvimento motor e cognitivo dos alunos (Dilshodovich, 2021). Neste contexto, o estudo propõe-se: (i) Apresentar propostas de intervenção que ajudem os alunos a adquirir hábitos saudáveis; (ii) Avaliar a perceção dos alunos sobre a utilização de aplicações digitais na Educação Física, e (iii) Refletir sobre a utilização das aplicações digitais na promoção da atividade física. Metodologicamente, durante 3 semanas acompanhou-se 34 alunos de ambos os sexos (idades entre 15 e 17 anos), sendo uma semana de controlo e duas semanas com o desenvolvimento de desafios. Os níveis de atividade física, foram quantificados através da aplicação digital (número de passos/dia). Constata-se reduzidos níveis de atividade física, claramente inferiores aos recomendados para populações pediátricas, aproximando-se apenas nos dias com aulas de Educação Física. Com o desenvolvimento de desafios, observou-se um incremento nos níveis de atividade física, atingindo os 25% nos dias útil e de 60% nos dias de fim de semana. O estudo também identificou que a utilização de aplicações digitais como o Stridekick potencializa a prática de atividade física, principalmente aos fins de semana. Pelo seu reduzido custo, facilidade de acessibilidade, pelo fornecimento de resultados afirmam-se como uma ferramenta de promoção da atividade física a equacionar pelo professor de Educação Física.
- Physical education and health: guidelines for the inclusion and exercise prescription for students with asthma and type I Diabetes MellitusPublication . Sousa, José; Silva, João; Coelho, Filipe; Rodrigues, Ana; Rodrigues, AnaThe school is affirmed as a space for the integration and inclusion of students with a wide range of needs, vulnerabilities, and potential. Asthma and Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (DM1) are two chronic conditions whose diagnosis has shown an increasing trend among the pediatric population. Engaging in physical activity can be beneficial for children and adolescents with these conditions; however, the prescription of exercise must follow specific guidelines. Physical Education (PE) professionals should be well-versed in preventive protocols and response procedures for situations such as asthma attacks, hypoglycemia, or hyperglycemia. This paper aims to propose a set of practical recommendations for the inclusion and exercise prescription for students with asthma and DM1 (DM1) during PE (PE) classes, based on a review of clinical guidelines, scientific articles, and other relevant documents. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways (Padem & Saltoun, 2019) and is one of the most common chronic respiratory diseases worldwide, with an increasing prevalence in recent decades (Alhassan et al., 2016). For students with asthma, regular physical activity contributes to (i) slowing the decline in lung function, (ii) reducing symptoms and medication needs, and (iii) improving physical fitness, which enhances their ability to perform daily activities (Rochester et al., 2023). DM1 is a chronic condition characterized by insulin deficiency due to the absence of pancreatic beta cells, resulting in hyperglycemia (Katsarou et al., 2017). Physical activity plays a critical role in managing DM1, offering significant health benefits for children and adolescents (American Diabetes Association, 2017). For these reasons, it is essential for teachers to encourage physical activity among students with asthma and DM1, particularly through PE classes, which serve as the primary means of promoting physical activity in schools. However, educators must understand the specific characteristics of these health conditions, the precautions necessary for exercise prescription, and the development of school-wide and classroom-level protocols tailored to each student.
