P. J. アーノルドの 「運動教育」 論に関する一考察

抄録

The theory of Movement Education by Arnold is remarkable in that it suggests a new paradigm of Physical Education. In recent years it has been often referred to in duscussions on Sport Education in our country.
His theory, however, has not been understood well enough, The purpose of this study, therefore, is to clarify the background and the concept of his Movement Education and examine the validity of his theory.
The summary of the result of my analysis is as follows: First, he considers that “Movement” itself is a culture worth learning and that by using the word “Movement” in stead of “Physical Education” as the name of the subject, the purpose or objective of the subject becomes clearer. Secondly, it is generally understood that his point is restored to or focused on the dimension of “Education in Movement”. But actually he emphasizes that various potentialities and functions that movement has should be brought into full play. Therefore, it is necessary to understand three dimensions integrally in order to grasp his theory on Movement Education thoroughly. Thirdly, “subjective meaning” which is understood as the intrinsic value of movement is not listed in his curriculum as an attainable “objective”. Practically “knowing how to carry out movement” is emphasized as the primary and important objective in the dimension of “Education in Movement”.
