IO1: Best Practice Report on Digitally Inclusive Physical Education and Health
Start: Aug 2021
End: Jul 2022
The Best Practice Report on Inclusive Physical Education and Health aims to explore how inclusive physical education and health can be delivered digitally. The report is part of a strategic process leading to the creation of a digital course on DIPHE, and therefore each one contributes to the needs outlined in the project description. The report is crucial to the development of the project and will form the basis of the creation of the rest of the IO’s. The project aims to produce high-quality examples focusing on physical education and health education as there does not currently exist a resource that gathers together such materials. The potential scope of such resources is considerable as every child and young person in Europe has a statutory right to regular physical education.
The Best Practice Report has been developed from research spanning across Europe to produce a framework that can really work and benefit the target groups.
All the partner organizations will more or less partake equally in the preparation of this report. EUPEA has been selected as the leading organization of this output.
IO2: Pedagogical Framework for accessible online teaching of Digital Inclusive Health and Physical Education
Start: Aug 2021
End: Jul 2022
A methodology will be created for the pedagogy of the DIPHE course. This will ensure that teachers are equipped to deliver digital physical and health education and Health-Enhancing Physical Activity (HEPA) safely to a range of children, with and without disabilities and fewer opportunities.
All the partner organizations will more or less partake equally in this IO. Ikkaido has been selected as the leading organization.
IO3: Curriculum Framework and DIPHE Course for accessible online learning of Digital Inclusive Physical and Health Education
Start: Jun 2022
End: Jun 2023
An intersectional, accessible and inclusive curriculum will be created to help addressing the biggest barriers to participation in digital health and physical education, and also allow for the reaction of a course on DIPHE.
The curriculum will be designed for teachers in primary and lower secondary educational settings
All the partner organizations will more or less partake equally in the preparation of this curriculum. Ikkaido has been selected as the leading organization of this output.
IO4: Reliable Resources Guide
Start: Apr 2022
End: Mar 2023
A guide to reliable resources will be developed for teachers and teaching assistants in primary and lower secondary education that will support them in developing accessible DIPHE that is safe and compliant with relevant EU legislation (regarding Distance Learning, Online Safeguarding and E-safety).
IO5: E-learning Platform with course to develop digital competences in the delivery of IPHE
Start: Jul 2021
End: Jun 2023
An E-learning platform will be developed, through which the DIPHE course will be accessed. The E-learning platform will also include a forum that will allow teachers to connect and share ideas and methodologies for the facilitation and improvement of DIPHE.
This task will be led by the UCY team with the support of Ikkaido, Aux Couleurs Du DEBA and EUPEA.
IO6: Pilot
Start: Feb 2023
End: Feb 2023
A minimum of 64 Physical Education Teachers will take the course and teach it to children across Europe in order to examine its impact and reach, and any necessary changes or alterations will arise from the pilots.
The valuable results of the pilot testing will be evaluated by the partner organization, and the feedback will be used to make changes where appropriate.
All partners will trial the program in their home countries, and will collaborate to make changes where necessary. This task will be led by EUPEA.
