DIYPES is a two-year Erasmus + European project (2017-2018) which aims to promote physical activity in schools through a participatory approach to lessons, involving students and teachers in the co-design of activities. During the project, which involves 6 European countries - Albania, Italy, Malta, Romania, Slovakia, and Denmark as internal evaluator - an experiment was carried out on the basis of which best practices will be identified to be disseminated at the European level.
The objectives of the project are:
- identify and describe the educational objectives and practices of teaching motor and sports sciences in the national curricula of the countries involved;
- test the feasibility and effectiveness of a 3-month experimentation based on a participatory approach to physical education lessons, in 3 different schools per country;
-practice extendable at European level to build innovative participatory approaches to physical education lessons.
