| 3 | Sport in history, culture and the media | LGX226B05 |
We are so accustomed to the central role of sport in our daily life and in the media, that we tend to think that sport and mass sport are universal phenomena. Mass sport - both as regularized competition and as systematic individual training- is in fact historically contingent. It depends on a range of cultural, social and political factors, that determine the place of sport and sporters in society, that guide who can participate and under which conditions, and that influence how sport is valued in society at large.
This course offers a broad overview of the main historical trajectories of sport from antiquity to the present day. It will give special attention to the cultural political and social-economic factors that enable and regulate sport activity, and investigate the place of sport as a practice and idea and their societal impact from a historical perspective. We shall study how sport and sporters are represented and discussed in different kinds of media over time: from art and literature to journalism, radio and TV, and social media; and investigate how these representations have in their turn influenced the role of sport and sporters in society. |

| 5 | Sports Economics | EBB920A05 |
| This course consists of two parts. In the main lectures, a review is given of modern literature on the economics of sports. Important topics are: demand for sports, supply of sports, the outcome of sport events, the market for (top)talent, sport and the government, economic effects of major sport events. Some lectures are more research oriented, when recent papers are discussed. Finally, students write a paper in teams on a topic of their choice. Of course, that topic should be related to sports economics. One or two guest lecturers will provide another perspective on current developments. |

| 6 | Sports education and participation | PAMIN07 |
During this course, the topic of ‘dealing with differences’ in sports education and participation will be approached from an educational perspective and from a motor skills perspective. The lectures and accompanying literature from the educational perspective will focus on stimulation of participation through instructional behavior and grouping practices as well as the integration of students with Special Educational Needs (SEN) in regular physical education settings.
The lectures and accompanying literature from the motor skills perspective focuses on motor development and the relationship with cognitive functioning of children. Participation in sport requires a range of perceptual, motor and cognitive skills. The fundamental concepts of motor development, using Newell’s model of constraints (Newell, 1986) to understand the factors affecting the development of sporting ability are the main focus of the lectures. The development of sport specific skills of children with disabilities will be discussed by use of the activity-deficit hypothesis and the skill-learning gap hypothesis (Wall, 2004). Examples of intervention studies aimed at improving primary school children’s cognitive functioning by moving during lunchtime and in the classroom will be discussed. |
