Integrated movement education – an emerging signature pedagogy in Pete
Background: Scholarship in physical education teacher education (PETE) repeatedly calls for developing new or innovative ways of educating PE teachers, echoing a broader agenda for developing, proliferating, and studying new signature pedagogies in teacher education. Despite myriad calls of this nature, there remains a dearth of empirical research that describes and analyses new or emerging signature pedagogies of PE.Purpose: The purpose of this …
Context matters! Youth participation patterns in movement culture
Rights-based Youth Sport
Participating in organized club sport constitutes a vital part of many young people's lives. This is particularly true in the Nordic countries, where almost all children have spent time in sport clubs at the point of reaching youth Sport participation thus plays an important role in making friends and being included in social networks Being 'good at sport' is also often attributed to high social status among peers, especially for boys In addition…
Participation Rights in Youth Sport
The Convention on the Rights of the Child states that all children and young people have the right to have a voice in matters concerning them, in accordance with age and maturity. In the endeavour to make youth sport a safe place free from abuse and harassment, it is crucial to ensure that young athletes can exercise their participation rights. Drawing from an online study involving over 550 Swedish young equestrians aged 15–17, the aim was to in…
Children's Rights to and in Sport
It has long been stated that children have the rights to protection from, e.g., abuse and to the provision of age-appropriate leisure, play, and recreational activities along with participation in all matters that concerns them. Yet, the full range of children's rights to and in sport has not yet been explored in detail. To do so, it is relevant to turn to the Scandinavian countries, which are praised for promoting children's rights and well-bein…
Looks, Liveliness, and Laughter
In contemporary society, visual information is influential, not least when businesses are communicating with potential customers. It represents and influences how people understand phenomena. In sports, much attention is directed toward how media represent elite sports and sport stars. Less attention is directed toward children’s sports. The aim of this article is to explore and analyze visual representations of children on sport businesses’ webs…
Selling youth sport
The contexts in which young people participate in sport are diverse. In Scandinavia, as in many other countries, child and youth sport is mainly organised in non-profit, membership-based and voluntary driven sports clubs. In Sweden, this model is now challenged by commercial businesses providing child and youth sport services. The overall aim of this article is to provide empirically based knowledge about these ongoing and largely unexplored comm…
Logics of practice in movement culture
In this article, we present a framework for exploring participation in and social stratification of movement culture based on Pierre Bourdieu’s concept logic of practice. The background to our approach is Lars-Magnus Engström’s struggle to understand the impact of social stratification on participation in movement culture in a now nearly fifty-year follow-up study. The aim of the article is to elaborate further a framework, which Engström drafted…
Swedish PE teachers struggle with assessment in a criterion-referenced grading system
In the field of education, the international trend is to turn to criterion-referenced grading in the hope of achieving accountable and consistent grades. Despite a national criterion-referenced grading system emphasising knowledge as the only base for grading, Swedish physical education (PE) grades have been shown to value non-knowledge factors, such as students’ characteristics and behaviour. In 2011, a new national curriculum was implemented wh…
(Re)presenting equestrian his tories—storytelling as a method of inquiry
Responding to calls about the need to 'give voice' to groups previously marginalized in research and to challenge meta-narratives about men in sports this paper explores the use of a narrative approach to illuminate men's experiences—and the doing of gender—within equestrian sports, a sport dominated by women in Sweden. Adopting the position of a storyteller three literary short-stories were constructed from interviews with men active in equestri…
Communicating aims and learning goals in physical education
Based on a socio-cultural perspective on learning, the aim of this article is to examine how aims and learning goals are communicated in physical education (PE) practice. A special focus is on scrutinising how teaching practices are framed in terms of whether and how the aims and learning goals are made explicit or not to students. The aim is also to relate these kinds of communications to different movement cultures. The result shows that many o…
The social construction of ability in movement assessment tools
This paper focuses on how ‘ability’ is conceptualised, configured and produced in movement assessment tools. The aim of the study was to critically analyse assessment tools used for healthy and typically developed children. The sample consists of 10 tools from 6 different countries. In the study, we pay special attention to content and evaluation methods. The theoretical analysis explores and discusses what kind of movement ability the tools cons…
Exploring PE teachers’ ‘gut feelings’
Research shows that teachers’ grading is influenced by non-achievement factors in addition to official criteria, such as knowledge and skills. Some grading criteria are internalised by the teacher, who is sometimes unable to verbalise the criteria used and refers to what is called a ‘gut feeling’. Therefore, transparency, validity and reliability are problematic. The aim of this study was to explore which criteria physical education teachers cons…
What did they learn in school today? A method for exploring aspects of learning in physical education
This paper outlines a method for exploring learning in educational practice. The suggested method combines an explicit learning theory with robust methodological steps in order to explore aspects of learning in school physical education. The design of the study is based on sociocultural learning theory, and the approach adds to previous research within the field, both in terms of the combination of methods used and the claims made in our studies.…
Almost all start but who continue? A longitudinal study of youth participation in Swedish club sports
Many young people in Sweden stop participating in club sports during their teens, but some continue. Drawing on a longitudinal study, the aim of this article is to highlight some of the characteristics of teenagers who continue with club sports and to discuss the relation between club-sport participation and social and cultural conditions, with the help of Bourdieu’s theoretical framework. This is done by studying the characteristics of teenagers…
Promoting girls' participation in sports
What does it mean to promote girls' participation in sports and which girls are seen as needing support? In this article we focus a government-financed sports venture and scrutinize the frames governing what is possible to say about girls and their participation in sports. By analyzing project applications from local sport clubs we investigate how the category of girls is discursively constructed in projects designed to promote girls' sports part…
The game within the game
Since 1980 the Swedish compulsory school curriculum has stipulated that Physical Education (PE) should be taught co-ed and schools are legally required to promote gender equality. The latest evaluation of PE in Sweden shows that more boys than girls ranked the subject highly and that they had a higher level of activity during the PE lessons. Drawing on a case study, the aim of this article is to illuminate how games placed girls and boys in diffe…
Symbolic capital in physical education and health
The way teachers’ in Sweden reason about assessment and grading in physical education and health is in focus in this article. The central question is to investigate what teachers’ believe are the goals of the subject, important knowledge in the subject and criteria for assessment in physical education (PE) health. With this study we take up a theme, particularly developed by Evans (2004 Evans, J. 2004. Making a difference? Education and ‘ability’…
Defining, acquiring and transacting cultural capital through assessment in physical education
Assessment is a powerful message system in education, but one which has not received sufficient research and critical or theoretical attention in the field of physical education. Drawing on the physical education and health (PEH) assessment experiences of 16-year-old students in the Swedish education system, the focus in this paper is on what students learn about the purpose, practice and possible consequences of summative assessment. By studying…
