EduPASS framework for Educator and Coach Education and Training
Here we present the teaching platform developed as part of the EduPASS project. The platform content is divided into the two EduPASS settings: informal for “Youth Sport Coaches” and non-formal for “Early Childhood Educators”.
A framework for education and training of professionals was developed for each setting. The respective six core modules are presented in detail in terms of their structure content and intended learning outcomes. The modular EduPASS training programmes are designed to provide comprehensive and practical training in the field of physical activity, movement, play and youth sport (PAMPS). Each module will have specific learning objectives and will integrate different didactic approaches to meet the different needs of students/learners.
The courses include both theoretical and practical elements to ensure that participants not only acquire the necessary knowledge, but also develop the skills to apply this knowledge in real-life situations. In addition, special emphasis is placed on interactive learning methods that promote exchange between students and encourage active participation, thus helping to continuously develop and revise the learners’ attitudes and values.
The adapted Evaluation Tools for the Youth Sport Coach and the Early Childhood Educator are available for download on the respective pages.
