Athlete Learning in Elite Sport: A Cultural Framework: Routledge Research in Sports Coaching

Editat de Natalie Barker-Ruchti
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2020
Elite athletes lead a particular way of life, which creates significant learning and shapes their selves. This is the first sociological-pedagogical text to conceptualise athlete learning in elite sport and across athletic careers. It outlines theories of learning and argues for a cultural perspective capturing contextual influence, temporal changes, individual dispositions, and subjectivity.




Presented in three parts—landscaping elite sport and theorising athlete learning; showcasing athletes’ learning in elite sport; and informing research and practice—the book features nine international, multi-contextual, and multi-experience case studies of athlete careers, experiences, and learning across individual and team sports such as boxing, rugby, basketball, hockey, and gymnastics.




This is fascinating reading for students, researchers, and practitioners in sport organisations, sports coaching, coach education, and sport sociology and pedagogy.

Recenzii

"An important contribution to the literature on sports coaching and athlete development … I believe that the book is useful at all levels of study, from undergrad to postgrad, as well as to researchers wanting to expand their horizons as far as understanding athlete development in elite sports. As such, the book has the potential to inform and advance both research and practice in sports coaching and athlete development." – Christian Thue Bjørndal, Norwegian School of Sport Sciences, Sports Coaching Review
"Athlete Learning in Elite Sport: A Cultural Framework is a significant contribution to the sport coaching literature, providing an important balance between academic and practitioner insight. This balance ensures the book is accessible for a wide audience but also represents the sport coaching context in an authentic way." – Benjamin Moreland, University of Gloucestershire, idrottsforum.org
