One month ago a physical education professional development conference was held in Lorca (Murcia - Spain), and there was just a main goal: change educational methodology in physed lessons according to new technologies new era. It was originally called "Jornada por un Cambio Metodológico en Edufis"
This event was magnificently conducted and organised by Miguel Franco (@MiguelFranco2), physical education teacher at IESO Pedanías Altas and blogger. Also is a member of FOROEFYD, a professional association of physed teachers, fitness-health professional and students located in Lorca. In addition to seek a better health and physed programs at schools this association has a sharing workspace regarding PE resources.
The #jornadacmedufis was a first step in order to cover a current necessity of adapting our daily teaching activity to the new technologies, and all powerful tools they provide for connecting physed teachers.
Twitter allowed us to meet awesome Gloria Herrero's and Meritxell Monguillot's experiences they were carrying out at their schools. That encouraged to ask them a professional development proposal, so finally we got them at this amazing event.
Summarizing, Gloria and Meritxell shared their work with us, they sort out our logic doubts, and we eventually tried to generate new ideas and create new professional networks for physed projects.
At the same time, participants could become confortable with new tools, knew new learning environments and how to design educational experiences.
My takeaways from this outstanding event:
- To connect students, teachers and families is an essential aim to develop useful learning environments. New technologies have an important rol for that purpose.
- To change is going to be hard, it is an adjetive really attached to "change" definition.
- Teachers must neglect the fact that they are the only owners of knowledge.
- To collaborate is better than compete when a learning output is chased.
- To motivate students will be narrowly related to taking into account emotions in our lesssons.
