Information Science Reference Promoting Sustainable Development Goals in Physical Education: The Role of Motor Games

Motor play, being a dynamic and participatory activity, provides an ideal platform to address relevant topics such as health and well-being, inclusion and equity, environmental respect, and the promotion of active and healthy lifestyles. By incorporating a multidisciplinary approach, it enriches the educational experience by relating physical education concepts to other areas of knowledge such as social sciences, natural sciences, and personal and social development. The contributions of motor play to the 2030 agenda in physical education go beyond simple physical exercise, serving as a vehicle to shape citizens committed to sustainability and global well-being, while developing fundamental physical, emotional, and social skills for life. Promoting Sustainable Development Goals in Physical Education: The Role of Motor Games focuses on integrating motor play as a fundamental tool in physical education to promote the sustainable development goals established in the 2030 agenda. The aim is not only to develop motor and physical skills but also to foster values and practices that contribute to a more sustainable and equitable future. Covering topics such as motor conflict, socio-emotional well-being, and student motivation, this book is an excellent resource for educators, school administrators, healthcare professionals, environmentalists, professionals, researchers, scholars, academicians, and more.
