Beyond the theory-practice divide: A systems analysis of beginning teacher learning-practice through complex theoretical frameworks
Traditional teacher development research conceptualises the relationship between preservice learning and classroom practice as linear transfer, perpetuating ‘theory-practice divide’ narratives that obscure the actual complexity of learning-to-teach processes. In this systematic interpretive literature review, we expand on existing systems mapping by synthesising studies drawing on theoretical frameworks that conceptualise beginning teacher learni…
Enhancing pre-service teachers’ psychological well-being through service-learning in physical education
Psychological well-being is crucial for pre-service teachers, influencing academic performance, personal growth, and professional preparedness. University students face complex academic, social, and emotional demands that can affect both personal and professional development. Service-Learning (SL), integrating community collaboration with academic learning and structured reflection, has been shown to enhance aspects of well-being such as self-est…
Enacting a pedagogy of love in a physical education teacher education critical service-learning program: Insights from visual ethnography
Background Service-Learning (SL) is a pedagogical approach that combines academic learning with community engagement. In Physical Education Teacher Education (PETE), research on SL often focuses on preservice teachers’ technical skills and social responsibility, while affective experiences and the perspectives of other participants remain largely unexplored. This study examines these aspects, to show how approaching SL through a pedagogy of love,…
Seeking a balance between ideal teaching and ‘what works’ in a physical education teacher education service learning programme
Service learning (SL) is a widespread pedagogical approach in teacher education. In SL programmes, practice and theory are expected to be connected. However, as teacher educators, we acknowledge that they are not always completely aligned. To better understand this tension, in this collaborative self-study, four teacher educators examined the complexity of balancing ideal teaching and ‘what works’ in an SL programme carried out in the field of ph…

Finding the place of content and language integrated learning in physical education within the models-based practice framework
Although the educational intentions of content and language integrated learning (CLIL) seem to be perspicuous, how to put them into practice in different subjects is not so clear-cut. In addition, critical voices within the physical education (PE) arena claim that CLIL may jeopardise the subject. Therefore, CLIL needs to be adjusted in order to remain on the PE agenda. Currently, PE specialists embrace the models-based practice framework, which m…

Bilingual physical education: The effects of CLIL on physical activity levels
Physical education (PE) is often the subject chosen for applying multilingual initiatives based on content and language integrated learning (CLIL). Some research literature (Lynott, F. J. 2008. “Integrating Other Subject Matter without Jeopardizing Physical Education Goals: The Content Linkage Approach.” Strategies 22 (1): 10–17; Merino, J. 2016. “Non-Linguistic Content in CLIL: Is Its Learning Diminished?” In CLIL Experiences in Secondary and Te…
How Can Service-Learning Shape the Political Perspectives of Pre-Service Teachers? A Program in the Field of Physical Education
Active and democratic citizenship promotion has become a critical challenge for higher education, and civic engagement is a fundamental axis not only in education but also in fostering democratic systems.

The aim of this study was to analyze the learning related to the political dimensi…
The Nature of Integration in Physical Education Through CLIL: An Analysis of Cognitive Discourse Functions
Language in CLIL is dependent on the subject that embraces it, as it is the case of Physical Education. The present descriptive exploratory case study examines how content and language are integrated into Physical Education lessons with CLIL in secondary education. It applies the Cognitive Discourse Function construct as a heuristic to analyse 19 lessons. The results show that all the acts of thinking are used, but not equally. The specific unit …

Influence of Socio-Demographic Factors in the Promotion of Social Entrepreneurship: A Service-Learning Programme
Social entrepreneurship (SE) is often presented in the literature as the key to solve many of this world's persistent social problems. SE offers a special opportunity to address the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and to boost the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This research examines the effects of Service Learning (SL) on the SE of university students and to examine whether certain sociodemographic factors (i.e., age, entrance stu…
Sustainable Service-Learning in Physical Education Teacher Education: Examining Postural Control to Promote ASD Children’s Well-Being
As classrooms become more and more diverse, it is imperative to provide physical education teacher education (PETE) students with opportunities to develop competencies that promote quality education for all students. In this study, PETE students applied a physical education service-learning (SL) program aimed at enhancing Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) children's motor domain and general well-being-objectives that are connected to the third focus…
Impact of a physical education service-learning programme on ASD children: A mixed-methods approach
Background. Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have few opportunities to engage in physical activity, which affects their already limited social and motor skills. Different Service-Learning (SL) proposals designed to meet this need have started to emerge, and research is required to better understand the services provided. Objective. Two objectives were established in this study: (1) to understand the impact of a physical education SL p…
Service-learning in physical education teacher education: Towards a critical and inclusive perspective
The purpose of this study was to analyse the impact of service-learning (SL) in physical education teacher education students (PETEs). The PETEs (n = 169) completed one of the editions of a SL program carried out between 2015–2018. This program consisted of designing and leading motor game sessions to facilitate the inclusion of 116 children with special educational needs (SEN). The program was based on Kolb’s learning stages to promote reflectio…
The effect of bilingual Physical Education on students’ Physical Activity. Things are not always as they seem
One of the priorities of ET2020 is to increase the efficiency of teaching through the Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) approach. In Physical Education (PE), it is still not crystal clear whether sessions that involve CLIL undergo such substantial modifications that the amount of physical activity in the lessons is jeopardized when compared with ordinary Physical Education lessons. The objectives of this study were: (1) to determine…
