Educar en valores a través de programas de deporte escolar: un estudio comparado entre la “Union Nationale du Sport Scolaire” (Francia) y los “Campeonatos Escolares en los IES de la Comunidad de Madrid” (España)

El interés de las administraciones públicas por promover el deporte escolar, suele justificarse por los beneficios educativos y saludables que los escolares obtendrían de las prácticas físico-deportivas. Mas allá de concepciones neutrales o excesivamente idealizadas sobre su valor educativo, las condiciones socioculturales que lo configuran y las intervenciones pedagógicas en el terreno marcan la orientación de la educación en valores propuesta en los programas de deporte escolar. El objeto de estudio de esta tesis doctoral es comprender la educación en valores desde el punto de vista de la estructura organizativa y de los actores implicados en dos programas de deporte escolar seleccionados de países diferentes: la “Union Nationale du Sport Scolaire” (UNSS) en Francia y los “Campeonatos Escolares en los IES de la Comunidad de Madrid” (CEIESCM) en España. El diseño metodológico es un estudio comparado internacional y de corte cualitativo, donde se han analizado 66 entrevistas semiestructuradas, 28 observaciones directas, 45 documentos y el cuaderno etnográfico del investigador por medio de análisis de contenido temático apoyado con el programa NVivo 10. Los resultados aportan dos concepciones distintas de deporte escolar con repercusión en la educación en valores: la UNSS complementa valores del sistema educativo y deportivo proporcionando cauces de implicación y compromiso del alumnado en el arbitraje y la organización asociativa, mientras que en CEIESCM, eximiéndoles de esas responsabilidades, se prioriza la máxima práctica de actividad físico-deportiva reforzando o sancionando durante la misma las conductas que vayan a promover valores del juego limpio propios del deporte. La explicación de estos resultados, contextualizados en sus países respectivos, permite proyectar un eventual deporte escolar europeo basado en valores ciudadanos y democráticos que recogería la perspectiva moral, jurídica y política propuesta a partir del estudio. RÉSUMÉ L’intérêt des administrations publiques pour promouvoir le sport scolaire est souvent justifié par les bénéfices éducatifs et ceux liés à la santé que les élèves obtiendraient des pratiques physiques et sportives. Au-delà des conceptions neutres et excessivement idéalistes sur sa valeur éducative, les conditions socio-culturelles qui le configurent et les interventions pédagogiques sur le terrain marquent l’orientation de l’éducation des valeurs proposée par les programmes de sport scolaire. L’objet de cette étude est de comprendre l’éducation des valeurs du point de vue de la structure organisationnelle et des acteurs impliqués dans deux programmes de sport scolaire sélectionnés de différents pays: l’« Union Nationale du Sport Scolaire » (UNSS) en France et les « Campeonatos Escolares de los IES de la Comunidad de Madrid » (CEIESCM) en Espagne. L’approche méthodologique est une étude comparée internationale et qualitative, où l’on a analysé 66 entretiens semi-directifs, 28 observations directes, 45 documents et le carnet ethnographique du chercheur par le biais d’une analyse de contenu thématique à l’aide du programme NVivo 10. Les résultats apportent deux conceptions différentes du sport scolaire qui ont des répercussions dans l’éducation des valeurs: l’UNSS regroupe les valeurs du système éducatif et sportif en proposant aux élèves des espaces d’implication et d’engagement avec l’arbitrage et l’organisation associative, alors que les CEISCM, les exemptent de ces responsabilités et donnent la priorité au maximum d’activité physique et sportive pratiquée où l’on renforce ou sanctionne pendant son déroulement les conduites qui encourageront les valeurs de fair-play liées au sport. L’explication des résultats, contextualisée dans leurs pays respectifs, permet de projeter un éventuel sport scolaire européen basé sur des valeurs citoyennes et démocratiques qui recueillerait la perspective morale, juridique et politique proposée suite à cette étude. ABSTRACT The interest of public institutions for promoting school sports is often justified by the educational and healthy benefits that the students obtained through physical activity and sports practice. Beyond neutral or overly idealised conceptions about the educational value of sport, sociocultural conditions and pedagogical interventions shape the orientation of education in values given in school sports programs. The aim of this thesis is to understand the values education from the perspectives of the organizational structure and actors involved in two school sports programs selected from different countries: the "Union Nationale du Sport Scolaire" (UNSS) in France and the "School Championships in the IES of the Community of Madrid" (CEIESCM) in Spain. The methodology is a comparative international and qualitative study, with 66 semistructured interviews, 28 direct observations, 45 documentary resources and the ethnographic research notebook being analysed through thematic content analysis using the program NVivo 10. The results provide two different conceptions of school sport that impact on values education: on the one hand, the UNSS complements values of the educational and sports system providing channels of participation and promoting the involvement of students in refereeing and associative organization; on the other hand, CEIESCM is does not assume these responsibilities and the maximum sportive practice is prioritized reinforcing or punishing behaviours that promote sport fair play. The explanation of these results, contextualized in their respective countries, can project an eventual European school sport based on citizens and democratic values and reflect moral, legal and political perspective proposed in this study.

COST Action Urban Agriculture Europe Training School «Urban agriculture inside the city:alternatives for vacant lots and public space»

The third Training School of the Action took place in Vitoria-Gasteiz (Basque country, Spain) from 24th to 26th September 2014. Vitoria-Gateiz has experimented an important urban outgrowth in the last decade, mainly through the planning and development of two new neighborhoods, Zabalgana and Salburúa, situated at the eastern and western border of the city, by the Greenbelt. These new development are well-equipped and designed according to sustainability principles. Nevertheless, among the main problems they present is their over-dimensioned public space, which creates some areas lacking enough density and mix of uses. On the other hand it is very expensive for the municipality to maintain these public space with the high Vitorian urban standards for public space. The proposed solution for this problem is a strategy of "re-densification" through the insertion of new uses The debate has arisen about which are the most adequate uses to insert in order to get an increasing of urban vitality, specially considering that housing has reached its peak and that Vitoria-Gasteiz is well served with social and sport amenities. The main goal of the TS was to offer an opportunity for the reflection about how urban agriculture might be an optimal alternative for the re-qualifying of this over-dimensioned public space in the new neighbourhoods, especially considering it synergic potential as a tool for production, leisure and landscaping, including the possibility of energy crops within the limits of urban space. Continuity with rural and natural surrounding area through alternatives for urban fringe at the small scale is a relevant issue to be considered as well within the reflection. Taking Zabalgana neighbourhood as a practical field for experiment, the Training School is conceived as a practical and intensive design charrette to be held during a whole day after two days of local knowledge-deepening through field visits and presentations.
