Además, el ocio de los jóvenes está cambiando hacia un ocio más pasivo y, por consiguiente, su objetivo a la hora de hacer actividad física. El objetivo del presente estudio es comprobar si la motivación de los escolares al hacer actividad física es diferente en función del programa de estudios escogido. Se utilizó el cuestionario de motivación hacia la actividad física orientada a la salud (EMAPS) en 330 estudiantes de ESO de un centro de la Región de Murcia (53% modalidad ordinaria y 47% programa bilingüe). Se observaron mejores resultados en el grupo bilingüe en todas las variables aunque sin diferencias significativas, exceptuando la variable de regulación externa (p=0,03). Dentro de la modalidad bilingüe, las chicas obtuvieron mejores puntuaciones que los chicos, también sin diferencias significativas. Se concluye que en ambos programas escolares los estudiantes tienen una alta motivación hacia la práctica de actividad física orientada a la salud. Siendo las chicas de la modalidad bilingüe las que presentan una mayor motivación.","PeriodicalId":54349,"journal":{"name":"Porta Linguarum","volume":"398 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135273260","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of the study was to investigate how learning opportunities were talked into being through peer to peer interactions in these two groups and to determine how the cohesive or less cohesive nature of the class influenced the number of learning opportunities in peer interaction. The study was classroombased and was carried out over the period of an academic year. Research was framed within a sociocognitive perspective of language learning and data was collected from questionnaires and audio recorded talk of dyads, triads and groups of four students completing a total of eight oral tasks. Using conversation analysis, these audio recordings were transcribed and analysed quantitatively for learning opportunities and qualitatively for interactions which encouraged a positive social dimension and which may have led to the creation of learning opportunities. Analysis of interactions revealed the many ways in which learners in both the cohesive and less cohesive class created learning opportunities. Further qualitative analysis of these interactions showed how the affective relationship between participants influenced the number of learning opportunities created.","PeriodicalId":54349,"journal":{"name":"Porta Linguarum","volume":"2 1","pages":"245-265"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44470366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
