Positive experiences in physical education through teacher intervention in the teaching unit futsal.

Abstract

The interpersonal style used by the teacher of Physical Education (PE) in their classes can trigger consequences for students inside and outside the classroom. Grounded in self-determination theory and achievement goal theory, the aim of the study was to analyze the relationship between motivational climate and support of the basic psychological needs (BPN) generated by the PE teacher in the teaching unit (TU) of futsal, with consequences of enjoyment and boredom, as well as the predisposition toward EF experienced by students. The sample was composed of 70 students (32 men and 38 women) year 4th of compulsory Secondary Education, aged 15 to 17 years (M age = 15.31, SD = 0.49). The variables measured at the end of the TU were: motivational climate (EPCM), support of the BPN (CANPB) and affective consequences (SSI) the content of futsal and the predisposition towards PE (PEPS). The results of correlation analysis showed that the task climate and support of the BPN in the TU futsal, correlated positively and significantly with enjoyment and some predisposing factors toward PE, while doing it in reverse with boredom. Therefore, given the relationship between what happens in the classroom and outside it, seems necessary that teachers of PE generates a task climate and support of the BPN in each of curricular content, to students adopt life-styles more active and healthy.
