Effect of physical activity on learning?

Transkript

1 Effect of physical activity on learning? Professor Stephen William Hawking Indirect NOT DIRECT coupling between physical activity and cognitive learning! (Kavale & Mattson, 1983)

2 Effect of physical activity on learning? New research findings indicate the effect of physical activity A neurimaging investigation of the association between aerobic fitness, hippocampal volume, and memory performance in preadolescent children (Chaddock, L. et al. Brain Research, 2010)

3 Individual differences

4 Consequences skill development Which consequences have this theories for our understanding of skill development Empirical supports from research: motor skills, cognitive skills Low correlation between different skills for example cognitive skills and motor skills Low correlation between different subtasks within a skill for example within motor skills and mathematical skills

5 Between skills Kavale and Mattson (1983) cogntive skills and motor skills Gunnarsdottir and Gunnarsson (2003) cognitive skills and motor skills motor skills (age 6) Icelandic (age 9); r=0.217 motor skills (age 6) mathematic (age 9); r=0.291 Karlsdottir and Stefansson (2003) reading simple word 1 class and writing 5 class

The sub task are: Addition (simple) (A); Subtraction (S); Addition Oral (AO); Subtraction Oral (SO); Addition in a Text (AT); Subtraction in a Text (ST); Multiplication Oral (MO); Understanding the Clock (UC); Understanding the Calendar (UCA) A S AO SO AT ST MO UC UCA A 1,55**,44**,46**,27*,18,34**,32**, S 1,39**,44**,17,24,43**,40**, AO 1,57**,16,41**,47**,45**,25* SO 1,24*,48**,57**,47**, AT 1,14,11,17, ST 1,42**,53**, MO 1,47**,46** UC 1,48** UCA Sigmundsson, Polman, Lorås (2013)

10 Cognitive skills Karlsdottir and Stefansson (2003) Reading competence low correlations between subtask within reading

11 Reading in 1 class 6 years old

12 Kavale and Mattson (1983) Perceptual motor- training were not effective overall had a near zero effect on academic achievement the effect on motor skills was also modest to little training and to little specific training

14 Oppgave 1. Gutter taper i Trondheimsskolen Guttene har dårligere utbytte av undervisningen enn det jentene har, ifølge rapporten. Jentene er flinkere enn guttene i de aller fleste skolefagene. Det viser en rapport om Trondheimsskolene som legges fram for bystyret torsdag -For det første modnes guttene senere enn jentene. Det kan hende skolen ikke tar tilstrekkelig hensyn til dette, og premierer kanskje jenteadferd mer enn gutteadferd. I tillegg er det kanskje slik at det i guttekulturen ikke er like viktig som i jentekulturen å være skoleflink, sier Midtlyng. NRK, 2006 Diskuter hvilke teoretisk perspektiv et slikt syn på kjønnskilnader har Diskuter hvilke konsekvenser et slikt syn på årsaker for kjønnskilnader i leseferdigheter kan ha Diskuter hva kan gjøres i forhold til et slikt problem i leseferdigheter hos gutter

15 Implications Motivation Learningprocess Generalisation Automatisation Acquiring and refining the skill Understanding the skill Repetition Copying Trying and practising (Henderson & Sugden, 1992; Haga et al. 2008)

16 Oppgave 2. Forklar denne figuren Hvorfor er kunnskap om en slik figur viktig for de som arbeider med læring?

18 Oppgave 3. Diskuter flow? Hvorfor er kunnskap om denne modellen viktig for læring?

19 Oppgave 4. Forskning viser at en voksende gruppe barn ikke passer inn i skolen. Størsteparten er gutter. Vi blir nødt til å møte denne gruppen på annen måte. Det er en gruppe barn som ofte lever et passivt liv, foran play stadion og dataspill. Forskning viser at det er høy sammenheng mellom mindre fysisk aktivitet i hverdagen (mer bruk av play stadion,dataspill) og atferdsvansker i skole. Løsningen blir da mer ritalin bruk?
