Influence of SARS-CoV-2 in the use of active methodologies in Physical Education

Abstract

Resumen: Introducción: La actual crisis debido al COVID-19 está afectando a la Educación, y sobretodo a la Educación física ya que encontramos mayor inactividad física y sedentarismo en la población. Numerosos estudios han encontrado una beneficiosa relación entre la actividad física y los efectos psicológicos por el COVID-19. Objetivos: Analizar la influencia del COVID-19 en metodologías activas centradas en el alumno/a en las clases de Educación Física. Métodos: 3 docentes del área dicha, con edades comprendidas entre 39 y 48 años participaron en el presente estudio. Los sujetos fueron entrevistados a través de una batería de preguntas validadas por tres doctores del ámbito. Un estudio descriptivo de campo que fue diseñado para correlacionar la influencia del COVID-19 en la Educación Primaria, profundizando en sobre el uso de metodologías activas en el área de Educación Física. Resultados y discusión: El análisis de los resultados obtenidos a través la entrevista a tres docentes del área de Educación Física nos informan que el COVID-19 ha tenido una gran influencia en la Educación y más en profundidad con la Educación Física, teniendo que dejar de utilizar ciertas metodologías de enseñanza. Conclusiones: Sin lugar ha duda los hallazgos de nuestro estudio y las extrapolaciones sobre la influencia del COVID-19 y estudios previos nos permiten concluir que esta pandemia está afectando al ámbito educativo y sobretodo, a nuestra área, la Educación Física.

Abstract: Introduction: The current crisis due to COVID-19 is affecting Education, and especially Physical Education since we find greater physical inactivity and sedentary lifestyle in the population. Numerous studies have found a beneficial relationship between physical activity and the psychological effects of COVID-19. Aim: Analyze the influence of COVID-19 on active student-centered methodologies in Physical Education classes. Methods: 3 teachers from the aforementioned area, aged between 39 and 48 years, participated in the present study. The subjects were interviewed through a battery of questions validated by three doctors in the field. A descriptive study that was designed to correlate the influence of COOVID-19 on Education. Results & discussion The analysis of the results obtained through the interview with three teachers in the area of Physical Education inform us that COVID-19 has had a great influence on Education and more in depth with Physical Education, having to stop using certain methodologies of teaching. Conclusions: Without a doubt, the findings of our study and the extrapolations on the influence of COVID-19 and previous studies allow us to conclude that this pandemic is affecting the educational field and above all, our area, Physical Education.
