Niveles de actividad física en Educación Infantil y su relación con la salud. Implicaciones didácticas

The following research consists in the development of a study about the physical activity levels that students of the pre-school education does as well as the analysis of the didactic implications of the results. The main topics were the physical activity levels of the pre-school students during the school hours and, in some cases, during all the day. The factors that influence in their physical activity levels and the didactic implications for the teachers were analysed. In order to achieve this, a follow- up was made of a total sample of 25 preschool children with an average age of 5,44 (D= 0,81) years.The results of this research show that students of these ages do not move enough and that the school contributes little to obtain the physical activity levels recommended for the internationals organizations linked with the health and the quality of life. So students still need to be further encouraged to exercise.

Cuando el proyecto se hace método: Nuevas perspectivas para la investigación socioeducativa en red

This paper centers its arguments in the epistemological shift that the so-called mixed methods have provided the Social and Educational Sciences with. It is not just as a way for widening the expectations they generate in socio-educational action and reflection but also in the change processes and social transformation. Based on these assumptions it is introduced the Network of Research Groups OcioGune and the coordinated project “From Educational to Social Times: the Daily Building of the Young Condition into a Network Society” (RESORTES). A practical realization of the potentialities inherent to collaborative work and the multidisciplinary approach provided by shared knowledge: a way, among others, to extend the frontiers of knowledge and its transfer to society by using mixed research methodologies.
