Olivier Dieu; Clément Llena; Keith Davids; François Potdevin – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2025
Purpose: Providing students with enjoyable experiences in Physical Education (PE) is considered a key variable in research on increasing Physical Activity (PA) levels. Designing game formats in PE is relevant to achieving this aim. Coupling principles of Motor Praxeology (MP) and the Constraints Led Approach (CLA) to design three games, the aim of…

Drouet, Océane Cochon; Lentillon-Kaestner, Vanessa; Roure, Cédric; Margas, Nicolas – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2023
Purpose: Jigsaw is a popular cooperative method, but its effect on students' motivation in physical education (PE) remains uncertain. The purpose of this study was to estimate this Jigsaw effect and to explore whether the type of sport taught in PE modified this effect. Method: Overall, 136 middle-school students participated in two PE sequences…

Faber, Irene R.; Liu, Meihan; Cece, Valérian; Jie, Ren; Martinent, Guillaume; Schorer, Jörg; Elferink-Gemser, Marije T. – High Ability Studies, 2020
Although relative age effects in sports have been studied worldwide, the underlying mechanisms are still under debate. This study adds to the existing knowledge by providing a further exploration of the within-year and between-year effects and their possible interaction in an individual skill/technique based sport: table tennis. Data of male and…

Guillou, Julien; Durny, Annick – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2008
Background: In most studies in the classroom context, the student is generally only one variable in the analysis of the effects of the teacher's work. Our research was based on the postulate that the student's activity is basically autonomous, i.e. irreducible with the influence that the teacher has. This is why we propose to analyse the dynamics…

Previous research conducted in both classroom and physical education (PE) settings has examined the impact of student gender on teacher-student interactions. The purpose of this study was to extend this line of research by analysing the influence of student gender and different types of physical activity on the frequency and nature of teacher…
