PHYSICAL LITERACY AND SPORTS PRACTICE. WHICH MODELS OF EDUCATIONAL INTERVENTION?

Matteo Bibba

Abstract


La pratica sportiva ha un significato significativo all'interno del processo educativo di ogni individuo e, attraverso approcci educativi intenzionali, consente lo sviluppo concreto della Physical Literacy (PL). L'obiettivo di questo contributo è quello di affrontare la PL come fondamento degli aspetti sia metodologici che culturali della pratica sportiva attraverso vari livelli di qualificazione competitiva, esaminando i principali modelli internazionali che pongono la PL al centro dello sviluppo sia sportivo che educativo.
