Sport Education Model

yeah hello I am Mike Bradley my range of

witches this is the sport education

model whoo okay so starting with the

history the sport ID model was first

introduced in 1994 by Daryl Seaton top

with his first book being called sport

education and quality PE through

positive sport experiences student hop

was strongly influenced by the sport for

all movement which first developed in

Europe and its main aim was increasing

participation in sporting activities

with the belief that every individual

has the right to participate in sport

according to the sport ed book itself

inactivity is a major health concern

resulting in rising cost of health care

the book explains that by getting

students to value and enjoy physical

activity they're more likely to remain

active into adulthood so seeding top

specifically created the model though

because he witnessed a lack of

competence and physical education

students and he saw that they didn't

know how to play they needed to first

develop competence and thus the model

was born and this is partly the reason

for longer seasons like in the unit

which allows for more time develop

confidence which we'll touch on later

one of the first learning theories

associated with sport edie is social

constructivism and one of its main

features is that we that we have talked

about in the past is the zone of

proximal development and that basically

means that a lot of learning happens

outside of our comfort zones we take

what we know and the background we have

and try to apply it to learn new skills

that we haven't yet mastered in sport ed

students come with valuable prior

experiences and knowledge that they can

choose roles and positions on the team

in which they can learn and excel the

most one of the best parts about having

teams of mixed abilities in this model

is that students can help each other and

essentially learn from one another great

point Mike the next model is situated

learning theory and this is a theory

that believes that students learn best

by experiencing and being engulfed in an

activity they learned by being in game

play and practicing in that specific

situation

this means that learning should take

place in the most authentic context as

possible and this for IDI model the six

essential features of sport are included

to do just this and that makes the

environment for learning as authentic as

possible as you can see here are this

listed are the six features of sport

that we just mentioned and includes

season's team affiliations formal

competition record-keeping culminating

event and festivity these are the

natural features of sport and when they

are included in the unit it makes for a

more authentic setting and this lays the

foundation for making a more meaningful

sports person and by including these

features this is the only model that

truly builds a sense of community we

love community now moving on to the

process of teaching each teacher is

gonna deliver a unit a little

differently and that really speaks the

idea that the teacher is the curriculum

as you can see here we have a breakdown

of how I taught her first couple days is

for IDI she decided to incorporate

adventure education into sport ed to

develop team camaraderie and

relationships in order to have a sex

successful unit now creating a strong

foundation for each team will really

lend itself to helping promote teamwork

and communication later down the line

now on the next two slides we've listed

the elements of sport ed that are unique

to the model and for those of you who

haven't taken the class yet it really

breaks down how the model is delivered

to students and is worth looking over

the first element is that the units are

longer to promote competence the teams

are mixed ability and are chosen by

either the teacher or the captain's

depending on the grade and level of

maturity each player learns a role and

by the end of the season should have

learned and done multiple roles the

games are small sided and modified for

all to play and lastly the teams are

gradually introduced to the activity

next the season typically consists of a

series of competitions there should be

an odd number of teams that weigh the

odd team acts as the duty team which

includes like reffing you know all that

good stuff records of the season are

consistently posted for students to see

the champions of the seasons are

determined by the

my system and it's important to remember

that the overall winning team is not

always the team who's won the most games

but instead the team who has the most

points from daily teamwork Fairplay duty

performance etc and lastly the student

ends in a culminating event that

celebrates the season moving on to the

goals of the model the three major goals

that guide program development sport IDI

model are for the student to become

competent literate and enthusiastic

players and this means that teachers

must design learning experiences that

facilitate student learning in realistic

settings so now we're going to show you

a portion of two separate videos if

you'd like to watch the full videos

you're welcome to do that but we don't

have time for that so the first video is

of a teacher talking about their

experience with sport IDI that's not

there and how they implemented it so

we'll go ahead and take a look at this

video hey I'm George vis coach gear calm

after this week's - Tuesday video I'd

like to talk to you all about a sport

education unit I find a few years back

that was a lot of fun to teach and these

kids really enjoyed it now this is my

take on sport education it may not be

the full version but it's like to go

over and just then give you an idea

about how I did it just to give you a

bit of a background as to why I want the

sport education when I was at McGill on

my last year I had a final field

placement to do and I was lucky enough

to get placed at because whole night of

comedy which is my own Facebook here in

the city of Shawn bleep in Quebec now

Chumley's mom would call full out high

school said it's junior high school

which means it only offers great 7th 8th

and 9th when I was there I never talked

grade 7 I did teach to grade 8 classes

and 99 classes and of my 9th grade 9

classes those one class I was special

special because those parts prolong

called the sports plus program

now as opposed to regular Greenline

classes for only two periods of pizzette

on a nine-day cycle students in Sport+

program has six periods of pizzette on a

nine-day cycle which means I got to see

them a lot more so I figured with all

this extra phys ed why not do a sport

education season so that's what I did

here's how in the first class okay so in

that video you might have caught that he

only implemented it with one of his

classes and that's a class that he saw

more than the rest and it's because this

model takes a considerable amount of

time and that's something that should be

considered when implementing it so now

into the next video and this video is a

real-life example of a teacher

explaining the general basics of a sport

ed model to a students as it introduces

the unit to them for the first time

[Applause]

that's all season so we're going to use

basketball you get to be more involved

with with the sport you get to play you

get some of you look good to be the

captain of the coach from your team

you're good to pick your team and you

will get to some of you will get the

referee so let me do good to keep score

you are in practice and you'll get to

play and we'll have the closed season

what kind of have a tournament there and

want one champion we won't have a

preseason where you get to practice with

your team you can come up with flames

your coach is in charge of whatever

you're doing in practice

Mulla play or come shooting anything

alright that'll be kind of brief season

regular season where you'll get to play

all the teams and then whoever has the

bench record himself and they'll have

the postseason tournament stop

each game can be a half-court plenty all

right little plainly see Pangos when

your plane and then when we have the

championship game we'll play full court

I've already divided up the teams and

now my picture cabinets so once it gets

harder than that

alright so moving into the standards

originally sport ed was all about

standard one but it's kind of been

developed and changed the way now the

teacher is the curriculum when we had it

game modified this how the season

progressed she added an adventure

education elements to make it more

standard for focus season standard three

addressed heavily as the students build

warm up plans practice plan the game

plans addressing the needs and

weaknesses of their own team that must

be addressed and then standard four

addressed throughout as students must

work together not just as a team to

reach goals but also address conflict

within the team and how issues will be

handled so moving on to assessments

because of how the model is laid out

teachers have a significantly have

significantly more time to watch and

evaluate students using assessments and

this means that the students are getting

more feedback in order to be better in

the sport ed book it shows some

assessment options that align well with

the model

these include checklist rating scales

homework peer and self-assessment s--

and many more many more so as most of

you probably know the sport IDI book is

a really great resource for finding

assessments and explains how to deliver

it to students so here is one assessment

hopefully you can see that pretty well I

just liked it because they use a

pedometer account as a way to track

physical activity levels but also

deliver points to the students in the

season and also just feel free to pause

this video if you'd like to look at the

assessments longer this next assessment

is an example of a teacher assessment

that can be used to track Fairplay

points for each team using this system

just tracking it throughout this season

yup and you can do it for multiple teams

okay

moving back and then there's also more

assessments as you can see that you can

find in the book

so all the aspects of self-determination

Theory fit within sport ed competence is

thought through the lessons and

information which is delivered to the

teams to be learned in their groups the

teacher carefully guides the students in

a way that allows them to guide

themselves which is where autonomy comes

into play and really shines in this

model student groups are led from within

by coaches trainers managers their

learning feels self-guided because

they're running their own team care must

be taken to ensure that they are given

enough freedom to feel this autonomy but

also enough teacher intervention that

critical elements are still taught

relationships are built amongst the

teams as they operate much like a real

team or community relying on each other

and everyone within a team to complete

their assigned tasks all right so the

first article that we looked at by Chiu

oh you would say that was a review of

eighteen different articles all focused

on sport Eadie's related to high school

physical education classes and how they

related to both social determinants

theory and achievement goal theory the

collection of their findings suggested

that sport ed programs generally

facilitate a mastery climate and student

feelings of competence autonomy and

relatedness than traditional PE setting

which in turn facilitates more

self-determined students the collection

of their research proves this sport edie

leads to improved motivational outcomes

in PE based both on social determinants

theory and achievement goal theory the

second article by Smither and focused on

the outcomes of high school students

participating in a sport ed model with

smaller teams and fewer roles the study

consisted of one teacher and seventy

ninth grade students for eight weeks

they observed classes two to three times

per week as well as conducting four to

six informal interviews with twelve

students two themes were found first

sport education transforms students from

passive learners into active learners

reflected in team autonomy and problem

solving the second that smaller teams

produced higher engagement especially in

those students who rarely protect

Paden traditional team sport unit the

results points in importance of team

autonomy and problem solving

opportunities that transform students

into active learners all right

so what's so special about this model

well sport education teaches the whole

student and researched from over 50

different studies describes the benefits

of using the model things like general

increases in student enthusiasm all

genders reported working harder in sport

Eady there was the lower skilled

students particularly benefited and

reported appreciation for teammates who

encouraged and supported their

development students like the longer

seasons because they had more time to

learn the activity and more time to play

it and most students reported that they

had improved in terms of developing

better techniques and applying tactics

now for critiques of the model

it requires student maturity and

responsibility to be successful the

students aren't doing their jobs or

can't handle their responsibilities

don't care to do them the model it's not

going to be very successful

losing can foster stressful competitive

environments and team conflict so the

environment which it's run has to be

managed carefully the longer sports

season can disengage those who do not

like a particular sport so because you

have to spend more time in a bit in it

if there's a student who already doesn't

like it they're just gonna get more and

more disengaged as you go the students

who are of a higher ability will end up

playing most of the sports so dominant

play really needs to be watched for and

controlled and students may feel as

though you know they aren't as skilled

so do not want to put in loads of effort

if they are not going to be appreciated

for it even if they are actually and if

they have actually improved a lot more

than others in the class here are

references and that's for zoom thanks

for watching catch in the later
