dc.description.abstractThis chapter explores the transformative potential of physical education (PE) when integrated into a transdisciplinary and physically active learning (PAL) framework. By moving beyond the traditional confines of the gym and classroom, we examine how PE can serve as a core component of holistic education. The chapter delves into the theoretical underpinnings of transdisciplinary and active learning, highlighting their alignment with the goals of PE. It will provide practical examples and strategies for implementing transdisciplinary PE programs, emphasizing collaboration with other subject areas and the creation of authentic learning experiences. The chapter will also discuss the role of PE in fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity, while promoting physical literacy and well-being. Ultimately, this chapter aims to inspire educators to reimagine PE as a dynamic and essential component of a comprehensive curriculum.eng
dc.description.abstractEste capítulo explora o potencial transformador da Educação Física (EF) quando integrada numa estrutura de aprendizagem transdisciplinar e fisicamente ativa (PAL). Ao ultrapassar os limites tradicionais do ginásio e da sala de aula, examinamos a forma como a EF pode servir como uma componente central da educação holística. O capítulo aprofunda os fundamentos teóricos da aprendizagem transdisciplinar e ativa, destacando o seu alinhamento com os objectivos da EF. Fornece exemplos práticos e estratégias para a implementação de programas transdisciplinares de EF, enfatizando a colaboração com outras áreas disciplinares e a criação de experiências de aprendizagem autênticas. O capítulo também discute o papel da EF na promoção do pensamento crítico, da resolução de problemas e da criatividade, ao mesmo tempo que promove a literacia física e o bem-estar. Em última análise, este capítulo tem como objetivo inspirar os educadores a reimaginar a EF como uma componente dinâmica e essencial de um currículo abrangente.por
