STRATEGIES TO TEACH AN HYPERACTIVE PUPIL IN THE PHYSICAL EDUCATION CLASSES: A STUDY WITH A PRE-SERVICE TEACHER
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2012, Vol 42, Issue 5
Abstract
Some disorders may affect the teaching process in physical education classes. In the present work an action-research study was conducted in order to know how two work with a single case of a hyperactive pupil in physical education classes. Based in literature, some work strategies were defined and used by a pre-service physical education teacher. Strategies were the adoption of evaluative positive and individual feedback, which had positive results in the self-observation and in the compromise with the exercises; a calm voice, that resulted positive for pupil individually, but not when in interaction with class; an increased responsibility for tasks, that did not work as expected, because the general behaviour of the class was not good too; pupil showed more commitment with the competition, when compared with cooperation tasks; the valorisation of the work in pairs was more positive than the work in group; attribution of gradual autonomy showed that more time and more specific skills of teaching are needed beyond one school year. In conclusion, it seems to be necessary to adapt specific strategies for Physical education, once the most were in the context of other disciplines taught in a classroom context that is very different from gym.
