Teaching Methodologies
The methodology adopted follows the principle of integration of theoretical knowledge in the practical
intervention component. Thus, the theoretical framework will be achieved in the classes, using the oral
exposition and the audiovisual equipments (multimedia projector, video, etc.), and indication of referenced
documents for the study of the contents.
The lessons, of the dominant practice component, include the specific theoretical grounding of this curricular
unit (CU). The contents will be taught focusing on the motor experimentation, observation and analysis of
tasks behaviour, proposed games and activities. It’s also requested the concretization of practical works
concerning the observation and measurement of the motor behaviour.
Will be used the ESEC e-learning platform to support and supervise the autonomous work of the master’s
students.
The evaluation of this CU will be conducted through a theoretical-practical work in the aim of one of the
programmatic contents.
Learning Results
1. Contextualise and articulate the key concepts of play, sports and leisure in an integrated perspective.
2. Identify the different types of leisure practices and free time uses, in different contexts and spaces, in
particular the sport leisure ones.
3. Experience and analyze practical situations that enable the understanding of early motor behaviour and the
fundamentals that guide the process of planning, management and evaluation of programs concerning the
Play and the Playful Sports Activities (PSA), designed to develop the early motor development, in different
contexts , times and spaces.
Skills
1. Develop projects, based on the Play and PSA, in different contexts, times and spaces, enabling them to

2. Identify and describe, critically, learning situations, through the Play and PSA, enabling the development of
early motor development.
