The purpose of this paper is to report on the pedagogical and research learning I experienced as a physical education student–teacher engaged in an action research project, for which I designed and implemented an innovative teaching model. In my roles as student–teacher and researcher, I wanted to examine the impact of using Sport Education in a Finnish school context by analysing and understanding my teaching as well as my students’ experiences. Data collection included my personal reflective journal, video observations, student group interviews, and student diaries. The results of this study reinforced previously reported benefits of Sport Education, although there are contextual and pragmatic issues that need to be acknowledged. Even though implementing a new pedagogical approach was time-consuming, stressful, and full of real-world challenges as well as the additional demands of the action research project, I still learned a great deal about teaching and research. Keywords: action research, physical education, student–teacher, curricular change, teacher education ----- La historia de la Investigación Acción de un estudiante-profesor: El cambio no es fácil y lleva tiempo, esfuerzo, y reflexión crítica. Resumen El propósito de este trabajo es informar sobre el aprendizaje pedagógico y de investigación que he experimentado como estudiante-profesor de educación física involucrado en un proyecto de investigación acción para el que diseñé e implementé un modelo de enseñanza innovador. En mis roles como estudiante-profesor e investigador, quise examinar el impacto del uso de la Educación Deportiva en un contexto escolar Finlandés, analizando y comprendiendo mi enseñanza así como las experiencias de mis estudiantes. La recopilación de datos incluyó mi diario de reflexiones personales, observaciones en video, entrevistas a grupos de estudiantes y diarios de estudiantes. Los resultados de este estudio reforzaron los beneficios previamente reportados de la Educación Deportiva, aunque hay cuestiones contextuales y pragmáticas que deben ser reconocidas. A pesar de que la implementación de un nuevo enfoque pedagógico consumía mucho tiempo, fue estresante y lleno de retos del mundo real, así como las demandas adicionales del proyecto de investigación acción, aprendí mucho acerca de la enseñanza y la investigación.
