The “One resource kit for teachers” WADA-AIESEP project

In March 2014, AIESEP members from six countries, located in four continents, have put together their expertise and effort in preparing and submitting a proposal in response to the call entitled “One resource kit for teachers” promoted by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). The proposed international project has been approved and the network has been working on it since October 2014. The project is aimed at developing a resource, designed to help teachers deliver their existing curriculum requirements for values education. This resource uses sport and its positive values as a context to secure interest from the pupils, and it will be developed on solid scientific bases, implemented with different kind of resources (e.g. didactic units, values-based games, teaching hints, a glossary), and finally tested among educators of various countries. This symposium will provide an overview of the literature on values-based education, of the results from the global environmental scan on values requirements across the globe, and of the toolkit in progress preparation. The large network of the AIESEP lets the opportunity to carry out this project through all continents, providing information on curricula requirements from culturally and geographically distinct situations. The involved AIESEP members will challenge the field of sport values, fostering discussion and debate, enhancing their own tools, becoming better networked, and inspiring change in sport pedagogy.
