Participants are two coaches in their first or second working year. A mixed methodology was used by means of polar coordinates analysis. The results agree with previous studies that established that (1) PCK of novel coaches presents deficits in task selection and modification, (2) motivation is the key factor determining tasks selection process, and (3) they do not know how much time they should dedicate to each task. Even so, better development was found in the PCK of the coaches.

Faced with this situation, the Spanish university not only had to adapt to the changes derived from the causes of the pandemic but also had to face a new methodological model-e-learning teaching-for which not all teachers and students were prepared. This could cause an increase in stress due to the uncertainty caused by this time of change. This research analyzes the relationship between perceived self-efficacy in the confinement period and the level of trait anxiety (TA) and state anxiety (SA) during COVID-19. Four hundred twenty-seven students from the University of Granada (Spain) participated in this study. The adaptation of two scales that measure perceived academic self-efficacy and anxiety (TA and SA) has been applied. The results indicated that there was an inversely proportional relationship between anxiety and self-efficacy; men showed the highest perception of self-efficacy, while women had higher scores in TA and SA; the latter was accentuated in cases when a relative died. To conclude, students who show a higher level of anxiety (TA and SA) express more negative emotions and also perceive themselves with less academic self-efficacy. Therefore, a stressful situation (pandemic and confinement) together with a critical event (illness and death of a relative/friend due to COVID-19) increases anxiety levels and influences the perception of academic self-efficacy.

It is an ex post facto study with a single-group retrospective design, with a representative sample of 94 coaches out of a possible 109. The Kessler Psychological Distress Scale and the short version of the ISTAS21 Psychosocial Risk Assessment at Work Questionnaire were adapted to the sports context. The results show that the youngest, those with the least experience and level 1 and level 2 coaches show the highest levels of stress. According to the psychosocial risk assessment, level 1 and 2 coaches, with experience between 6 to 10 years, are in the risk zone. Therefore, it is important ...

The study focused on whether there are significant differences in this variable through the scores obtained. Through a simple random sampling, 131 students participated in this empiric-analytic research, using an ex-post-facto study with a retrospective design with quasi-control group. A robust test of averages comparison, multiple linear regressions and an evaluation of the relative importance of predictors was conducted. The results show how flipped classroom methodology linearly and positively influences academic performance and correlational motivation and support. As main conclusion, in a hybrid and digitalized learning context, the value of the consideration of active methodologies (flipped classroom) based on emerging pedagogies, allows improving students' achievement and competence development, providing critical, significant, ubiquitous, transformational and especially motivating experiences.

Method: a 24 items questionnaire (Interactive Response System for the Improvement of the Teaching-Learning Process) was designed ad hoc for this research and applied to 142 university students. Results: both the exploratory and confirmatory factorial analysis yielded 3 dimensions: classroom environment, teaching-learning processes and learning assessment. The results obtained both in reliability (Cronbach's alpha= 0.955) and in the Confirmatory Factor Analysis (χ2/df=1.944, CFI=0.97; GFI=0.78; RMR=0.077; RMSEA=0.08) reveal highly satisfactory indices. Conclusion: statistical analyses confirm that this instrument is a valid, reliable, and easy-to-apply tool for professors to evaluate the student perception of studentcentred learning.

Los participantes han sido todos los escolares de los cursos 5º y 6º (10-12 años) de tres colegios públicos de Melilla (n= 439). Los datos se han recogido a través del cuestionario de "Hábitos de participación en Actividades Físicas". Los resultados muestran la existencia de diferencias significativas en función del género en la frecuencia diaria de práctica (z= 2,72, p < ,01), y que los motivos principales para la participación en actividades físicas son aquellos relacionados con la salud "me gusta estar saludable", "es bueno hacer ejercicio", "para mantener la línea", mientras que los relacionados con los aspectos sociales "me gusta divertirme y ocupar mi tiempo de ocio" y "encontrarme con los amigos". Los motivos que les llevan a no participar en programas de actividad física son "falta de tiempo" y "estudios, hacer deberes", resultados similares a los hallados en estudios anteriores en otros contextos nacionales e internacionales.

This empirical-analytical research is based on a quasi-experimental design with non-equivalent groups. The results reveal significant differences on the average grades of university students; those participating in the flipped classroom obtained higher scores than students following a traditional methodology, regardless of the specialization. Moreover, this research concludes that the flipped classroom approach offers an opportunity to transform the traditional system by improving the classroom environment, the teaching-learning process and the student's assessment.

En anos pasados el jefe contaba con apoyo y respeto y se le veia como un superior; ahora el jefe debe contar con la habilidad para manejar situaciones y tratar a sus “empleados” adecuadamente para ganarse asi su obediencia y lealtad, este es un merito que solo puede obtener el que es lider. En este articulo vamos a intentar hacer un breve recorrido por las distintas dimensiones y tipos de liderazgo, los rasgos personales que caracterizan a un lider y las relaciones entre el lider y su grupo.

The initial intention is to determine whether the average grades of students using the flipped method are significantly higher than the average grades of those students using traditional methods. This project, which can be considered an empirical/practical exploratory work, uses an ex post facto study with a retrospective design and a quasi-control group; the data collection process has a cross-sectional design. Results have shown there is a significant difference between the average grades of students who use a flipped method and the average grades of those who do not, with the former obtaining higher marks than the latter.

The research is of a quasi-experimental type of non-equivalent groups, with a longitudinal trend design in the data collection process. The entire available population has been selected, with 1.236 students participating, exploring the grades as an analytical resource, from the 2010/2011 to the 2019/2020 academic years. The results show statistically significant differences in the improvement of academic performance with the flipped classroom methodology. Furthermore, the results reinforce that the flipped teaching model effectively promotes students' interest, their capacity for autonomous learning and personal and cooperative relationships.
