Teaching methods and learning activities
Based on the objectives mentioned above, which are embodied in the acquisition of competences for the professional exercise of the role of coaching children and young people, the methodologies applied are much less expositive and more interactive.
The intention of preparing the students as future football coaches also requires the use of training strategies that allow the growing autonomization, which contributes to the questioning, in a growing list of demands, which begins with the confrontation of knowledge (define, describe, distinguish, recognize and associate concepts), through its application (exemplify, operate, prescribe), to problem solving (criticize, decide, formulate).
