Notes, summaries, assignments, exams, and problems for Physical Education

Intellectual Development (Ages 0 to 2 and 2 to 6)

• 1. Thought processes: Sensorimotor thought transitioning to preoperational and concrete-logical thought, enabling children to think and express thoughts.
• 2. Circular reactions: Circular reactions combined with tool use and new learning processes.
• 3. Egocentrism: Physical egocentrism (0-8 months) transitioning to overcoming physical egocentrism and developing psychological egocentrism.
• 4. Language acquisition: Language upgrading, vocabulary expansion, and grammar development.
• 5. Play progression: Sensorimotor play transitioning to symbolic play, and later to sociodramatic play.
• 6. Animism and magic: Animistic and magical thinking accompanied by object permanence, evolving into advanced animistic and

Cognitive Theory

Cognitive theory emerged in the United States during the 1960s. It has since expanded into various fields, including therapy and perceptual studies. This school of thought demonstrates that perception is not a photographic reflection of reality. Instead, before we connect with objects, our minds utilize perceptual maps or schemas that anticipate and inform our experiences.

Practical Examples of Mental Schemas

Consider the following scenarios:

• Navigating an unknown space: If you are searching for a book in a dark, unfamiliar house, you rely on a "home schema." You know that if the first room contains a bed, the next might be a bathroom, and the third could be a study, allowing you to navigate effectively.
• Interpreting stimuli: If

Methods are systems of actions or sets of activities performed by the teacher and their students. These are planned and organized by the teacher to enable student learning; it is the way to an end.

Methodological Models

Key models include: traditional, scientific systematization, socialization, individualization, current personalization trends, technological models, integrative models, and circular models.

Importance of the Justified Method

The method should be chosen to serve an educational project. It is important to note that a pure method is rarely given in practice.

Key Characteristics (CCT)

• Accommodate psychological and sociological characteristics and the learning pace of students.
• Alignment with the structure of science and the social environment.

Adaptations Produced by Exercise

Adaptations, or supercompensations, represent the changes occurring within the systems of the human body.

Physiological Level

Effects of Resistance Training

• Increase in size and capacity of the heart.
• Increased circulation levels.
• Increase in red blood cells and hemoglobin.
• Increase in the amount of myoglobin in muscle.
• Promotes venous return.
• Increase in the number of mitochondria in muscle.

All these factors increase the capacity for oxygen transport and delivery to the muscles, allowing the individual to fatigue less and recover faster.

• Decrease in heart rate (HR) at baseline, resting HR, and HR during effort.
• Increase in inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength.
• Pulmonary alveoli stretch more, increasing the surrounding

Breaststroke Technique

Arms: The recovery occurs underwater, keeping the body as streamlined as possible by bringing the hands close together under the chest. The traction phase provides the primary propulsion.

Legs: The feet utilize external rotation and dorsal flexion. The movement is circular, moving from outside to inside, transitioning from full extension to a 'W' shape.

Crawl Turn Mechanics

Approach: Contact the wall with one hand, perform a quarter turn, and inhale. The propulsion phase follows immediately.

Butterfly Turn Technique

Approach: Contact the wall with two hands, perform a quarter turn, and inhale. The underwater displacement involves a full stroke plus a half-stroke to prepare for the next breath.
