A draft paper was discussed at the executive committee meeting of ICEVI held in Kuala Lumpur in 2004 and it was refined on the basis of the suggestions of the members. In the process, the paper also accommodated ideas of the joint educational policy statement of the ICEVI and World Blind Union and also the joint educational policy of the CBM and Sight Savers. ICEVI took the lead to prepare the draft INGO strategy paper on education to increase the services to children with visual impairment at the country levels. Leading organisations such as the World Blind Union, CBM, Sight Savers International, Norwegian Assoiciation for the Blind and Partially Sighted, Overbrook School for the Blind, Perkins School for the Blind, Foundation Dark and Light Blindcare, etc., along with ICEVI will be meeting in Madrid in late 2005 to chalk out detailed plans of action to take this EFA campaign to the grassroot levels. The summary of the draft paper circulated to the international umbrella organisations and also to the Non-Governmental Development Organisations is presented here for the benefit of the readers of The Educator.

  • Spielreihen Und Spielformen Im Unihockey
    Spielreihen und Spielformen Spielreihen und Spielformen im Unihockey Trainerbildung Swiss Unihockey 2004 Spielreihen und Spielformen Spielreihen und Spielformen 1. Einleitung Abwechslung Spielreihen und Spielformen sind Trainingsmöglichkeiten, welche in jede Trainingsplanung miteinbezogen werden sollten. Wettkampfnah Sie versprechen Abwechslung im Training und sind beliebig ausbaubar. Nur in Spielformen ist es möglich, eine dem Wettkampf nahe Situation zu simulieren, da die Spieler immer wieder auf neue Spielkonstellationen treffen. So werden viele Fähigkeiten und Fertigkeiten unbewusst trainiert, wie zum Beispiel die Orientierungsfähigkeit, Reaktionsfähigkeit und die Fähigkeit, kreativ Unihockey zu spielen. Besonders bei den Kleinsten soll die Kreativität des einzelnen Spielers gefördert werden. Kreativität Er soll lernen, im richtigen Moment eine richtige Entscheidung zu treffen, die für ihn richtig ist. Selber "Entwickeln" Die aufgeführten Beispiele und Musterspielreihen sollen für die Trainer als Ideensammlung oder -grundlage dienen. Jeder Trainer soll eigene Spielformen und Spielreihen entwickeln und die erhaltenen Ideen abändern, sie auf seine Mannschaft und Spieler massschneidern. Mit "eigenen" Übungen zu arbeiten und eigene Ideen zu Spielformen zu machen, das ist die Kunst des Trainers und ist eine Herausforderung, die Spass bereitet. Schliesslich darf jeder Trainer auf "seine" Übungen auch ein bisschen stolz sein. Swiss Unihockey Seite 1 Spielreihen und Spielformen 2. Sinn und Zweck von Spielreihen gezielt und langsam Durch sinnvoll aufgebaute Spielreihen soll der junge Spieler langsam und gezielt an das komplexe Spiel Unihockey herangeführt werden. vereinfacht Vereinfachte Spielformen erleichtern das Lernen von Grundfertigkeiten und Fähigkeiten, weil der Spieler sich nur auf wenige Dinge gleichzeitig konzentrieren muss und so dem Grundgedanken des Spiels die meiste Aufmerksamkeit schenken kann. Bei den Spielreihen kommt ein Leitgedanke zur Anwendung, welcher im ganzen Training von Bedeutung sein soll.

  • Kreistorball – Einvorschlag Für Das Gemeinsame Spiel Von Blinden Und Sehenden 1987
    Integration von Schülerinnen und Schülern mit einer Sehschädigung an Regelschulen Didaktikpool BETTINA WURZEL Kreistorball – EinVorschlag für das gemeinsame Spiel von Blinden und Sehenden 1987 Universität Dortmund Fakultät Rehabilitationswissenschaften Rehabilitation und Pädagogik bei Blindheit und Sehbehinderung Projekt ISaR 44221 Dortmund Tel.: 0231 / 755 5874 Fax: 0231 / 755 4558 E-mail: [email protected] Internet: http://isar.reha.uni-dortmund.de Ó Bettina Wurzel Dieser Text beruht auf einem Artikel von BETTINA WURZEL: "Kreistorball". Ein Vorschlag für das gemeinsame Spiel von Blinden und Sehenden. In: Motorik 10 (1987), Heft 1, S. 41-46 BETTINA WURZEL "Kreistorball" Ein Vorschlag für das gemeinsame Spiel von Blinden und Sehenden Begründung für ein ungewöhnliches und (noch) neues Spiel Die Frage, ob Sehende und Blinde miteinander Ball spielen können, mag mancher schnell beantworten: selbstverständlich "nein" - wenn man an Volleyball, Fußball, Basketball oder Handball denkt; genauso selbstverständlich "ja" - wenn man die blindentypischen Ballspiele beachtet (Rollball, Torball), bei denen Sehende mit verbundenen Augen mitspielen können. Daneben mag die Frage manchem Sportlehrer überflüssig und von nur geringer Wichtigkeit erscheinen: Warum sollten Sehende mit Blinden gemeinsam Ball spielen wollen? Wann kämen sie überhaupt in diese Situation? Ich halte die gestellte Frage nach gemeinsamen Spielmöglichkeiten für wichtig und einer Antwort wert, die über schnelle Antworten hinausgeht: Zum einen nimmt das Gymnasium, an dem im unterrichte, wie viele andere Regelschulen auch, behinderte Kinder (in unserem Fall blinde Kinder) auf, so daß sich damit die Frage konkret stellt. Zum anderen ist, unabhängig vom konkreten Fall, das Miteinander von behinderten und nichtbehinderten Kindern ein Thema, das die Öffentlichkeit, darunter insbesondere die Schule, angeht. Diesem Miteinander ist nicht mit Absichtserklärungen gedient, sondern es verwirklicht sich unter ganz konkreten Voraussetzungen und Bedingungen.

  • Handball – 7 a Side Team Sport 1
    HANDBALL – 7 A SIDE TEAM SPORT 1. Introduction and history. Handball is the newest game within the sport games' category but its development and origin goes back in history. Ball games were gaining popularity at the turn of the century in Europe. Various ball games were played but the most comparable to handball game was Konrad Koch's Raffballspiel game. It was played in German schools in the 1890s. As we know today, the modern game of handball developed from 3 ball games: - Hazena, played in Bohemia in the middle of the 1890s - Haandbold, created in Denmark. In one of the schools the school doctor advised the school director to prohibit the play of soccer because of the many injuries it caused. Students were not allowed to kick the ball and because they liked soccer so much they started to play the game with hands. A school teacher, named Holger Nilson, had the idea to perfect the game into a new one. - Torball. The ancestor of the handball we know today was born during the 1st World War in Germany. In 1915, Bachmann Hermann, a physical education teacher created a new game that was played by hands. It was played on a field of 20x40 meters. The goals were 2x2.5 meters and the goal- area was a 4-meter semi circle. Torball was a women's game. It's hard to say which game was really the ancestor of today's handball however. It's suffice to say that the basics were given by the above-mentioned games. Handball is a young sport.
