The aim of this study was twofold: (i) to examine the variations of estimated maximal aerobic speed between non, low and high responders and (ii) to analyze the relationships between accumulated training load parameters and variations of maximal aerobic speed in children soccer players. Forty-four male soccer players were assessed three times during the early and mid-season (second to fifth month of the season) and were monitored daily over the period of analysis using the rating of perceived exertion (RPE), recording the training duration (in min) and calculating the session-RPE (sRPE). Pairwise comparisons revealed that maximal aerobic speed (MAS) was greater for the third assessment than the first (p-value [p] = 0.003; standardized effect of Cohen [d] = 0.355) and second (p = 0.013; d = 0.193) assessments. Large correlations were found between MAS and accumulated RPE, accumulated time, and accumulated sRPE. Moreover, non, low and high responders differed in.MAS (p<0.001) with the last group presenting the largest improvement in MAS. Results suggest that children with lower MAS baseline levels will improve more this capacity over the early and mid-season period compared to children with better baseline levels. Moreover, associations between accumulated training load and MAS were found, suggesting that the training effort can be related with aerobic capacity changes.

Creativity in early childhood teacher education: beliefs and practices
Ata-Akturk, Aysun; Sevimli Çelik, Serap (Informa UK Limited, 2020-01-01)
The aim of this study was twofold: (a) To carry out an in-depth investigation of pre-service teachers (PTs) beliefs regarding creativity and the perceived barriers of creative processes within early childhood education, and (b) To examine the extent to which PTs reflect their creativity within their pedagogical practices. The participants (n = 45) were university seniors attending an early childhood education programme. The study results demonstrated a lack of knowledge and experience regarding creativity i...

The aim of this study was twofold: (a) to carry out an in-depth investigation of teachers and parental views regarding outdoor play and learning, and (b) to examine the extent to which the objectives and goals related to outdoor play and learning were documented within the school curriculum. The data were collected qualitatively from 12 teachers and 35 parents whose children were enrolled in one school. Data collection occurred through observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. It was ...
EFFECTIVENESS OF A DATA-BASED DECISION-MAKING PROFESSIONAL LEARNING COMMUNITY FOR PHYSICAL EDUCATION TEACHERS AND ITS IMPACT ON STUDENTS’ KNOWLEDGE AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY LEVEL
Sarıkaya, Serap; İnce, Mustafa Levent; Department of Physical Education and Sports (2023-3-23)
The purpose of this study was two-fold; (1) to design a data-based decision-making professional development (DBDM-PD) program for secondary school physical education teachers and (2) to examine the effects of this program on teachers' data use and instructional practices and their students’ learning. The study includes a needs analysis on the designing of this program in the form of the professional learning community (PLC), its implementation with a theoretical framework behind the design, and an evaluatio...
