Physical education, the area that I teach nowadays, works through the body and movement and by many and diverse perspectives. For me, the most important is that students acquire a physical culture that allows them to learn many varieties of games and sports. The objective is that students in the future, as a citizens, have many tools in order to the movement be a part of their lives and be a daily habit. This would be for me the main purpose, to provide students with knowledge and practices so as to in the future, acquire healthy habits in which sport and its various manifestations, are one of the pillars that marked their lifes. This objective, which we could see in contents such as physical activity and health or games and sports, it is difficult to assess, because the result is a very long-term reality.
But from my point of view, it could be assessed through questionnaires that shown the prior knowledge of the students about some basic aspects of the subject, as the types of sports or elementary health habits were observed. Beginning of content, we could develop activities that allow students to design their own games adapted to the sport we are working. This will evaluate through the presentation of new games murals or oral presentations.
Lastly I could evaluate the effort through the unit's participation in different games, that have been proposed and also, with knowledge gained through a test. This test, will include a personal reflection.
Thus, my students could assess two aspects that are very important for that in the future in order to the sport is present in their lives:
creativity and autonomy.

Which training courses would you like to have access to as a teacher? Why? Which is, in your opinion the best way to share good practice amongs teaching professionals? Why?
First, I have to say that continuous teacher training is a strongly recommended work, because education must adapt to the society and the culture in which it is immersed.
I think that nowadays, education has two faces, social and formative. Therefore, if we consider the social need for school, I think is very important to train in those areas where students may need our help, such as control of emotions, empathy, respect, friendship and many other values that are missing or simply aren't so much valued. Unfortunately, it is common to see that students haven't basic values such as respect and tolerance, and I think it is necessary for teachers to take courses on these themes.
Moreover, as educators, we must also learn all that society and culture require. Therefore, we must be in constant training to assimilate new knowledge and recycling, as is the case to the new technologies.
Specifically, the new technologies applied to communication, offer us the opportunity to share knowledge with other education professionals. In my opinion, all derived from internet platforms such as blogs or web pages, are the best way to share and learn from other professionals. But the contact and the experience whit others is the best way to you learn more and thus, attending courses, as we do in our school every Friday from 12:30 to 14:30, I think is the best way to learn, because we are in contact with each other.
