PLAY-MOTOR-SPORTS COMPETENCE IN THE EXPLORATORY QUESTIONNAIRE AREAS OF PARENTING DEVELOPMENT IN THE FAMILY AND AT SCHOOL

Abstract

Starting from the assumption that today, more than ever, we are witnessing a fragilisation of family ties and aware of the shared responsibility of the current educational-parenting crisis, the QEASCG (Romeo, 2024), an acronym for Exploratory Questionnaire for the Development of Parenting Competences, is grafted on, an avalutative pedagogical tool for investigation and action, capable of storing up the most relevant conceptualisations on the modern-contemporary family and the research and reflections on the structures it has taken on (civil unions, de facto cohabitations, extended family models, step families, etc.)

The aim of this contribution is to briefly present this interdisciplinary investigation tool, which takes an initial ‘snapshot’ of Physical Literacy in the family, as well as a possible definition of play-motor-sports competence in the school context, also through an analysis of ministerial documents. We also wanted to emphasise the playful and creative dimension of education both at school and in the family, within the possible definitions of Physical Literacy (PL), in order to restore to play (individual, social, social with rules, traditional, skill, memory, street, etc.) the dignity it rightly deserves within the developmental pathway of children, understanding it as a fundamental prerequisite for their development at the same time as physical, cognitive, metacognitive, emotional-affective, social-relational and moral.
