ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to establish the content of a teacher-oriented movement assessment tool (MAT) for children aged 4–7 years. A three-round Delphi poll with an international panel of forty-six academics and practitioners was conducted. Consensus was reached on a selection and number of fundamental movement skills to be assessed with four stability (one foot balance, walk forwards along a line, front support, and sideways roll), five object control (two handed catch, underarm throw, overarm throw, kicking a ball, dribbling a ball with hands), and five locomotor (run, hop, horizontal jump, side-stepping, and skipping). A developmental stage approach and process-oriented scoring were deemed most suitable. These findings present the requisite elements to develop a teacher-oriented MAT for children aged 4–7 years. This framework would provide teachers the opportunity to effectively assess children’s FMS and subsequently intervene to improve movement competence.

摘要

本研究的目的是为 4-7 岁儿童建立面向教师的运动评估工具 (MAT) 的内容。由四十六名学者和从业人员组成的国际小组进行了三轮德尔福民意调查。就要评估的基本运动技能的选择和数量达成了共识，其中包括四项稳定性（单脚平衡、沿线向前走、前支撑和侧滚）、五项对象控制（双手接球、腋下投掷、上臂投掷） 、踢球、用手运球）和五种运动（跑、跳、横跳、侧步和跳跃）。发展阶段方法和面向过程的评分被认为是最合适的。这些发现提出了为 4-7 岁儿童开发面向教师的 MAT 的必要要素。
