Think play is for nurseries, not universities? Think again | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Play is what young children do, right? It’s not what we want students at university to be wasting their time doing. Or is it?


Play isn’t a waste of time. It delivers the same benefits for adults in higher education as it does for children: an opportunity to develop and practise skills, to reflect on things they have seen but not yet understood, and to deepen their learning, often constructing and developing mental models socially with their peers.

What is the relationship between physical activity and educational success?

 

A fascinating, and potentially very important experiment was carried in with a group of 10 and 11 year children in Vanves, a small district of Paris, France in the 1950s. The teacher-researchers wondered what would happen if a significant proportion of time for academic subjects during the school day was given over to physical activities. The precise rationale for this bold idea is unclear, but it seems that the researchers simply had a hunch that their students would benefit from daily dose of exercise.
