LAS COMPETENCIAS BÁSICAS EN EDUCACIÓN FÍSICA: UNA VALORACIÓN CRÍTICA Key competences in physical education: a critical evaluation
2008
The competences approach has been recently adopted in the Spanish school curriculum and is related to a wider proposal promoted by European Union’s education institutions. According to this approach, education must contribute to reinforce competitiveness and dynamism as well as social cohesion. The Spanish education policy ‘Ley Organica de Educacion’ (LOE) of 2006 sets the key competences as a new curriculum component and defines several key competences which should be promoted and developed in the different school subjects. This paper seeks to clarify the content and official pedagogical discourse regarding key competences derived from European Union’s educational approach and LOE, adding a critical evaluation from the physical education perspective. Firstly, we deal with the European Union’s educational approach and the adoption of lifelong learning as a teaching strategy. Secondly, competences are defined as a key element for lifelong learning and the key competences in Spanish curriculum according to LOE are expounded. Then, we point out the contribution of physical education to the key competences compiled in the lately published legislation about basic learning. Finally, a critical evaluation of the competences approach in physical education is added.
