CHAVERRA-FERNANDEZ, Beatriz Elena  and  HERNANDEZ-ALVAREZ, Juan Luis. The Planning of Assessment in Physical Education: Case Study on Ignored Process in Teaching. Educare [online]. 2019, vol.23, n.1, pp.225-245. ISSN 1409-4258.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15359/ree.23-1.12.

This article presents the partial results of a broader research on the conceptions and evaluative actions of six physical education teachers in high school in the city of Medellín (Colombia). Specifically, this paper presents the findings on one of its objectives: to analyze the decisions that teachers make before starting a didactic unit (planning on assessment). The research assumed a qualitative design, with a methodological approach of multiple case study. The strategies used for this purpose were the semi-structured interview and documentary analysis. The main findings of the study show that planning on assessment is not a specific activity that requires an interest on the part of the teachers, because their previous experiences give them the security to approach future units without adaptations according to the group or the subject to work on.

Keywords : Assessment planning; assessment; physical education; teachers’ thinking.
