This article is the result of a research carried out in three schools: Agustí Bartra School of Terrassa, Itaca School of Manresa and Pau Casals School of Vacarisses where the experiences of children towards the accompaniment of the psychomotor specialist are analyzed. It is directed and performed by Estrella Masabeu, Núria Franch and Josep Rota.
Lurdes Martínez, member and president of GREP, was from November 16 to 25, 2023 at the School of Human Movement Sciences and Quality of Life in Costa Rica. This entire process through the Psychomotor and Active Lifestyles Program.
During this stay she has developed both teaching and research and transfer activities.
As a teacher, he has given talks aimed at the teaching staff of the Department of Human Movement Sciences and Quality of Life, as well as for students studying Physical Education, Human Movement Sciences and Preschool Education. The diversity of teachers and students from different courses and subjects has favored the exchange of perspectives and teaching methodologies.
In the afternoons she has been able to share her experience and theoretical and practical knowledge with internship students and teachers from the CIUNA school.
She has also carried out a Training activity with the staff of the Ministry of Public Education of Costa Rica and with the national and regional coordination of the National Directorate of Education and Nutrition Centers and Early Childhood Care Centers. It was a very emotional experience in a school with many teachers that allowed him to get to know very closely the school context of schools for boys and girls up to 12 years old.
Specifically, the topics of the talks and activities carried out have referred to:
Psychomotor achievements and challenges currently.
Psychomotor development in children from 0 to 3 years old.
Psychomotor development in children from 0 to 6 years.
The role of the psychomotor specialist in the psychomotor session (part 1).
The role of the psychomotor specialist in the psychomotor session (part 2).
Graphics from psychomotor skills.
Psychomotor skills as a tool for childhood development (professionals from public institutions in Costa Rica).
As research, work sessions have been held to exchange, discuss and define new lines and national and international research projects in the psychomotor discipline, between the Psychomotor Education Research Group of the Autonomous University of Barcelona, and researchers. of the PSICOMI Program. As a result of the work carried out, joint thematic research priorities have been established between the two groups of researchers: childhood, adults (teaching bodies) and core institutions and populations that will allow growth and recognition of Psychomotor Skills in Costa Rica.
On November 12, at the Luzaro Eskola Conference, colleagues Estrella Masabeu, Núria Franch and Josep Rota presented the research work “children speak, let’s listen.”
Through a qualitative methodology, the oral representations of children aged 4 to 5 years were analyzed.
