An Empirical Study on Trainees' Concern about Teaching in Physical Education at the Attached Primary Schools of the Hiroshima University, No.2

This study aims to grasp the improvement of the implementation about trainees' planning and teaching in PE lessons at the attached primary schools of the Hiroshima University in 2002 as compared with 2000. Furthermore this study aims to clarify the change of trainees' concern about teaching in PE lessons before and after the school experiences in 2002 as compared with 2000. The results are summarised as follows: 1)During hte school experiences, 760f trainees taught PE lessons and also 8327777720220f trainees planned the PE lessons in 2002. Both of the percentages are increased very much compared with 2000. It is expects that more balanced contents schould be taught in the PE lessons by trainees. 2)Introducing of the trial teaching to the PE programme in our initial teacher training course increased trainees' concern about teaching in PE lessons before and after the school experiences in 2002 as compared with 2000. It seems that the PE programme should deal with the trainee students' concern about teaching PE lessons after the school experiences

The purpose of this study is to help students acquision of the ability which this school aims at, through the physical education. The abilities are, ""receipting various senses of values"", ""self-expression and communication"" and""decision-making"". In this study, we carried an approach focusing ""the ability to think scientifically"", ""determination and judgement"" and ""thought and judgement"". We carried out the method of ""the Game-stop and Interview"" for the practical study.

A Study of Improvement of Physical Education Classes in the Primary Teacher Training Course : Focusing on the hip circle backward

This study aims to understand what the students have observed about the motor skill of hip circle backward in the "Teaching Method of Primary Physical Education 2" of Hiroshima University. The results are summarized as follows. 1. Students observed different parts of movement about the same movie of hip circle backward in the case of second observation on compared the first observation. 2. When students observed good performance compared with unskillful performance of hip circle backward, students watched other parts of movement than the case of students' observation about the movie of skillful performance of hip circle backward. 3. When students found out problems about unskillful performance based on comparing good performance with unskillful performance, there were three cases. Firstly students could find problems about some movements if lectures explained about them. Secondly students couldn't find problems about some movements if lectures explained about them. Thirdly students could find problems about some movements without lectures' explanation

A Case Study on the Effect of the Consecutive Trial Teachings : Use of Soft Volley Ball as Teaching Contents

This study aims to consider following two points through the trial teachings in "Teaching Contents of Elementary Physical Education" in Hiroshima University of Elementary School Teacher Education Program. One is to consider effect of planning and practicing consecutive trial teachings. The other is to consider students' understanding of motor skills and teaching technique through the consecutive trial teachings. The results are summarized as follows. 1. Students realized that their practicing were improving. 2. Consecutive trial teachings gave students consciousness to relate first trial teaching to second trial teaching. In addition, they gave students effect to reflect on their trial teachings. 3. Students' consciousness of problems to be solved at first trial teaching is different from that at second trial teaching because of teaching contents and teaching skills

On the Effect of Implementation of Teaching Experience upon Development of the Capacity of Teaching Motor Skills (II)

This study aims to clarify what kinds of contents are considered as important by the students who planned and carried out trial teaching of physical education, and to grasp both the contents examined in advanced and those of their reflection on trial teaching, based on case descriptions. The lesson which this study discussed was the lecture on Learning-Materials of PE during the 4th semester in 2005 at the Faculty of Education, Hiroshima University. In this lesson, mat exercises and soft volleyball were performed for trial teaching. The subjects were ninety-three students. The questionnaire was accomplished after the implementation of teaching experiences. The results were as follows: 1) The content which the students considered as most important before the trial teaching was to grasp motor skills, and their direction and explanation of the method of motor was secondarily important. The importance of the teaching materials and teaching tools and that of keeping safety were influenced according to physical activities. In soft volleyball, keeping safety was regarded thirdly important, but fourthly important in mat exercises. 2) The analysis of the students' case descriptions showed their direction and explanation of motor and their grasp of motor skills were mutually related. Keeping safety was considered in the light of warming up before the trial teaching, but afterward, they reported that close relationship between the preparation for the lesson and its teaching contents should have been considered for keeping safety
