  • Las Deportistas Olímpicas En Los Libros De Texto De Educación Física
    2020, Retos, 38, 229-234 © Copyright: Federación Española de Asociaciones de Docentes de Educación Física (FEADEF) ISSN: Edición impresa: 1579-1726. Edición Web: 1988-2041 (www.retos.org) Las deportistas olímpicas en los libros de texto de educación física: ¿presencia o ausencia de referentes en nuestro alumnado? Olympic athletes in physical education textbooks: presence or absence of references in our students? Sergio Ruiz-Rabadán, Irene Moya-Mata Universidad de Valencia (España) Resumen. La representación de las mujeres deportistas en los libros de texto de Educación Física supone un modelo de referencia a imitar por parte del alumnado; además de visibilizar por un lado a las deportistas dedicadas a la alta competición, y por otro, el deporte minoritario. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la presencia de las deportistas olímpicas que se representan en los libros de texto de Educación Física en la etapa de Primaria, determinando su visibilización o invisibilización en dichos materiales curriculares. La muestra estuvo formada por seis libros de texto de la editorial Edelvives, la cual aborda el movimiento olímpico explícitamente. Se ha realizado un análisis cuantitativo y cualitativo, tanto de las imágenes como del texto, para medir la presencia y recurrencia de las mujeres. La técnica utilizada ha sido el análisis de contenido basado en un sistema de codificación ad hoc. Para el análisis estadístico se ha utilizado el programa estadístico informático SPSS 22.0. Los resultados muestran una infrarrepresentación de las deportistas olímpicas, siendo más presente el sexismo en el texto que en las imágenes. Estas mujeres deportistas son principalmente estadounidenses, sin discapacidad, que compiten en los Juegos Olímpicos de verano, en modalidades deportivas individuales, siendo el deporte por excelencia el atletismo, y la deportista olímpica con más presencia en estos manuales Nadia Comaneci.

  • Articolo GAZZETTA DI PARMA 08/09/2003 Scarica E Bocchia Le
    Articolo GAZZETTA DI PARMA 08/09/2003 NUOTO—Inizia una stagione densa di avvenimenti importanti che culminerà con le Olimpiadi Scarica e Bocchia le stelle del «Club 91» La stagione agonistica 2003-2004 si apre con grandi attese per il nuoto parmense. Ne è la riprova il fatto che il Nuoto Club 91 Parma, dopo sole due settimane di riposo, vede già i suoi atleti impegnati nei primi allenamenti per prepararsi al meglio agli appuntamenti che più contano. All'orizzonte, vi sono i campionati Europei di Madrid in calendario per il mese di maggio ed in agosto nientemeno che le Olimpiadi di Atene. Per la società di Parma, che annovera nelle sue file atleti della nazionale assoluta e giovanile, quali Michele Scarica e Federico Bocchia, oltre ad altri atleti di livello nazionale e regionale, la stagione si presenta, dunque, colma di impegni che proviamo a sintetizzare ed analizzare col d.t. Andrea Avanzini. Una stagione ricca di grandi gare; quali saranno le principali? «La stagione presenta almeno quattro appuntamenti importantissimi: a dicembre i campionati mondiali in vasca corta; a marzo i campionati italiani primaverili, validi per la qualificazione olimpica; a maggio i campionati europei a Madrid ed infine, ad agosto, le Olimpiadi di Atene». In quest'ottica su cosa puntate per Scarica e Bocchia? «Sarà una stagione ricca di avvenimenti e Michele deve centrare la qualificazione olimpica. Per questo, nei prossimi giorni, avrò un incontro coi vertici della nazionale per decidere i dettagli dei raduni collegiali pre-olimpici in programmi in America e Sud Africa. Attualmente Michele è già in collegiale con la Nazionale a Riccione dal 25 agosto e vi rimarrà fino al 7 settembre, unitamente a tutti gli atleti pre-selezionati per le Olimpiadi 2004.

    Heraldica este o [tiin]` auxiliar` a istoriei. Ea se ocup` cu studierea blazoanelor caselor conduc`toare, regi, prin]i, aristocra]i, ale breslelor de me[te[ugari [i ale altor asocia]ii, ale ora[elor, ]inuturilor etc. Denumirea acestei [tiin]e deriv` din numele dreg`torului din Evul Mediu, care era îns`rcinat s` poarte insignele regelui. Tot el Heraldica era cel care organiza turnirurile, binecunoscutele \ntreceri ale aristocra]iei feudale. Ei erau purt`tori de însemne cavalere[ti [i nobiliare prin care militar` – o se identificau cu ac]iunile victorioase proprii sau ale str`mo[ilor lor. În esen]`, blazonul (împreun` cu celelalte însemne pe care le necesitate avea un nobil [i casa lui), se constituia într-o nara]iune simbolic` despre originea, istoria, puterea [i rangul acestuia, toate degajând actual` o informa]ie puternic` în formul` estetic` despre identitate. Pe câmpul de lupt`, însemnele distinctive ale regelui deveneau repere de vizibilitate [i de coeziune ale efectivelor în jurul comandantului. El însu[i era simbolul suprem care motiva lupta. În momentul în care comandantul era ucis sau capturat de inamic, însemnele sale nu se mai z`reau pe câmpul de lupt` [i astfel se transmitea semnalul c` trupele nu mai au conducere.
