INTRODUCTION

The pandemic caused by Covid-19 has caused much havoc in education, especially in Physical Education, due to the fact that this subject needs presence in order to develop all motor, cognitive, social and emotional abilities and skills according to the psychomotor development of students from 5 to 18 years old in educational institutions (Posso et al., 2020c). Contributing to this thought, Mosquera (2020) mentions that Physical Education is framed in the development of motor skills appropriate for each age, which serves to integrate and contribute to an increasingly active and healthy society.

In this sense, Ecuadorian Physical Education teachers saw the need to be updated and trained in new learning methodologies and the use of virtual tools, as Posso Pacheco et al. (2021a) state, when referring to Covid-19 "(...) in the field of education, it has been a great opportunity for teachers to be updated in active methodologies and uses of computer tools, being aware of the new role of the teacher, especially in Physical Education" (p.32).

On the other hand, Physical Education teachers have had to integrate to the provisions of the educational authorities of Ecuador, which guide the use of active methodologies, applied in interdisciplinary learning projects, under the guidelines of a curriculum prioritized for the health emergency. Based on this idea, the Ministry of Education (2020) suggests the use of several active methodologies adapted to each sublevel and educational level to guarantee the learning outcomes of students and ensure the achievement of the Ecuadorian high school graduate profile.

According to Posso Pacheco et al., (2021b), cooperative learning has been mostly massified in Ecuadorian Physical Education since the issuance of the 2016 curriculum, which maintains a social constructivist line. In the pandemic, project-based learning, challenge-based learning and different active methodologies have been worked, which guarantee learning in a context of remote education, caused by the global pandemic situation.

With the range of possibilities regarding the use of active methodologies in the area of Physical Education, the Active Microcurricular Learning Model proposed by Posso et al. (2020) is mentioned as a proposal for classroom planning, which can be adapted to any context and content, since it follows the same guidelines of the Ecuadorian Physical Education curriculum, which allows maintaining flexibility and openness in order to apply skills with performance criteria, disaggregated and graded.

The Active Microcurricular Learning Model of Physical Education is adjusted to remote education, because the active methodological strategies proposed in the three phases of this model: opening, development and closing, do not deviate from the requirements of working with virtual resources.

By linking the four moments of phase 1 Opening with the development of a Virtual Physical Education class, the organization of groups in channels or rooms can be proposed, depending on the platform; these groups should be heterogeneous and should be composed of no more than seven students.

In the second moment, prior knowledge should be presented, depending on the skills with performance criteria to be developed in class, i.e., videos, images, sounds, readings, among others, should be presented in order to remember or relive the experience lived or communicated of the curricular content or contents to be developed.

In the third moment, the objective of the class should always be mentioned by the teacher as a challenge to be met, accompanied by motivational phrases, images or songs to awaken the interest to continue under the same purpose of the group or the class.

And finally, a fourth moment in which an activation game is played to replace the famous warm-up; this game should be, if possible, designed to be played alone, without the accompaniment of a family member, in a small space and standing in front of the electronic device; this game should always be accompanied by music that sets the rhythm of the activity; if possible, the teacher should consider the structure so that the students can contextualize it to the environment where they receive the classes.

Phase 2 Development of the Active Microcurricular Learning Model proposes two moments, which stand out because it is where the student acquires motor, cognitive, social and affective learning, depending on the skills with performance criteria planned for that class. In addition, the teacher must consider adapting the teaching to the conditions of space, material, accompaniment, autonomy and motivation that the student has at home or place where he/she receives the class (Posso, 2018).

The fifth moment, called Challenge, will allow the adapted addressing mentioned in the previous paragraph, that is to say, the teacher must take into account how to structure the learning challenge for the construction and group fulfillment of knowledge, in the context of each member of the established group. Undoubtedly, this challenge should be presented in spoken, written, image or any other form, depending on the age, linking virtual resources to motivate compliance.

In the sixth moment called Development, the students gathered in a group should understand the challenge; this can be done with a simple conversation among the members of the group, the teacher must ensure that the challenge is understood; for this, he/she could use additional resources such as a video, a presentation or the formulation of questions through any application or platform.

Once the group is clear about the challenge to be constructed, the teacher will pose guiding questions that orient or direct the solution of the challenge, without forgetting the contextualization of these questions to the limitations that arise at work, at home; this will depend on the age and the difficulty of the curricular content to be developed; however, it is advised that the students can ask these questions; for this, the age and the development of thinking skills that the students have should be taken into account.

All work will have to be built and with the contribution of all students, under the same common objective, which is learning; they will build it with trial and error, it should be remembered that the proposals of each one are fundamental, as well as the guidance and accompaniment of the teacher. It is possible that a member of the family or a person who lives with the student can support him/her without influencing the construction, but as a guide for the teacher, remembering that from remote education the people who live at home should be part of the class planning.

The virtual tools or resources that teachers use for the construction of the exercise or activity will depend on the learning they want to obtain, but it can be advised that the less technology is used for this purpose, the better, because a means of contact is already being used, such as the zoom platform, team, meet, among others, and this generates, together with the limitations at home, frustration and demotivation.

Finally, in phase three, Closure, it is proposed to generate student autonomy through self-evaluation and co-evaluation, with the students themselves providing feedback, emphasizing follow-up at all times and ending with the teacher's feedback. At this moment, it is proposed the retro-planning or change of the methodological structure of teaching if necessary, so that it adjusts to the type of learning of the students and to the context or reality of their lives.

In this sense, during the pandemic, Physical Education teachers faced real challenges in choosing the best teaching methodology, aligned to the application of virtual resources to ensure student learning. It should be noted that teachers should not lose the perspective of the quality of the educational relationship, which depends on their capacity, that is, through training so that they can strengthen the development of children (Posso, et al., 2020b).

Teachers who approach the preparatory sub-level or first year must consider that they are dealing with children between five and six years of age, who need special attention because this is one of the most important evolutionary periods (Lázaro, 2000). Children relate to the environment through the careful design of body plans, temporal and spatial perceptions, and sports activities according to the spontaneous needs and interests of each child.

In this sense, Physical Education teachers should focus on resolving individual differences through the implementation of innovative and creative learning strategies to fully consider children's coordination and control of movements (such as running, walking or motor skills), in order to fully develop their psychomotor skills. Coordination problems are often related to reading and writing defects. Rigal (2006) states that, in the context of primary education, because there is little stimulation of the nervous system, children are affected in running, jumping, painting, climbing, grasping, etc.

Teachers who teach these ages students should plan goals based on the development and use of innovative and creative strategies to optimize children's motor skills because teaching practice always begins with the children's knowledge of what they plan to learn (Ardanaz, 2009).

However, people have paid attention to abnormal movements, especially when performing activities such as running, jumping, rolling, climbing, balancing and coordinating early childhood activities. Therefore, if this situation of children is not corrected, it will lead to the non-autonomy of movement; thus, they will not be able to explore, discover and play a role in their surrounding environment, so, it will be a worrying situation of learning disabilities.

With respect to this reality, it is proposed to apply the Active Microcurricular Learning Model in children from five to six years old, belonging to the first year of General Basic Preparatory Education of a private school in the city of Quito, in order to check if it significantly influences the development of gross motor skills.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

The study corresponds to a quasi-experimental design with pre- and post-test measures, without control group, cross-sectional, descriptive, analytical and comparative; the population is composed of 22 children from 5 to 6 years of age in the first year of General Basic Preparatory Education of a private educational institution in the city of Quito. In the same order, the sample was constituted by twenty-two (22) as a unique and experimental group, distributed in 11 boys and 11 girls.

Prior to the research, an informed consent form was signed with the legal representatives of the 22 children, in which the objective of the research and the principle of anonymity with confidentiality of the data were indicated; in addition, the collaboration of the authorities and the Physical Education teacher for the study was previously expressed.

The purpose of the research was to determine the effect of the Active Microcurricular Learning Model to develop the gross motor skills of boys and girls aged 5 and 6 of the first year of General Basic Preparatory Education; the data needed to achieve these objectives are reflected in the aspects of gross motor skills (running, climbing, crawling and jumping). Therefore, the direct observation technique was used and as an instrument a Pretest and a Posttest of Mc. Clenaghan and Gallahue's battery, observations and motor patterns and Ozerestky's battery of infantile motor skills, which is registered in a checklist, were used.

The application of the Microcurricular Learning Model was applied in the five-year period of the school year 2020-2021, from September 2020 to January 2021, through virtual classes directed through the Zoom platform of the mentioned educational institution; the pretest was conducted in the first week of September and the posttest in the third week of January. The skills with performance criteria or Physical Education learning were contextualized to the space, resources and availabilities available in the students' homes, addressed in a remote education caused by Covid-19.

In the same order, for descriptive statistics, the calculation of correlation (Spearman's coefficient) between the aspects of gross motor skills analyzed, internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha) and differences based on gender were performed. The normality test (Shapiro-wilk) shows a normal distribution, parameter tests were performed to compare differences between variables Practical Activities Guide and Gross Motor skills (independent samples t-Student) for the pre-intervention test and the t-Student test for related samples for the pre- and post-intervention comparison. The significance level was set at p≤ 0.05 for the different tests.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Before the intervention

Table 1 shows the descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation), scores obtained in the aspects of gross motor skills studied and the degree of correlation between them. This relationship shows an internal consistency in the Running factor a Cronbach's Alpha (α)= 0.957, in the Climbing factor (α)= 0.996, in the Crawling factor an (α)= 0.995 and for the Jumping factor an (α)= 0.956 (Table 1).

Table 1. - Statistics: Mean (M), Standard Deviation (SD), Kurtosis (Kurtosis), Skewness (Skewness),
Cronbach's Alpha and correlations between the aspects of gross motor skills analyzed

^**Correlation is significant at the 0.01 level (bilateral).

In the same order, a significant, positive and moderate correlation is observed between the aspects of gross motor skills, where the correlation between the aspects Jumping and Climbing (0.557) and the aspects Climbing with Running (0.340) is emphasized. In another particular, the significant, positive and low correlation is observed between the aspects of the aspects of Crawling with Jumping (0.212) and Climbing (0.139). Likewise, the aspect Jump with Running (0.221) and with Crawling (0.031). It should be noted that all six values are higher than the neutral level of significance; this allows us to conclude that there is a significant, positive and moderate correlation between the aspects of gross motor skills studied.

Table 2 shows the independent tests according to gender; it shows that there is no statistically significant difference between the aspects studied for both sexes. The male gender obtained average scores above the female gender, although very close (Table 2).

After the intervention

The following is a descriptive analysis of the results obtained based on the treatment with the Active Microcurricular Learning Model in the applied instrument, taking into account the global character of the sample and its statistical significance (p) in all aspects of gross motor skills analyzed.

General Pretest/Posttest analysis of Basic Motor Skills

Table 3 shows the values before and after treatment, which allow us to affirm that there was a significant increase in the means of the aspects of gross motor skills analyzed after treatment, based on the Active Microcurricular Learning Model (Table 3).

Table 3. - General Pretest-Posttest of the Gross Motor Skills Aspects Analyzed

Pretest/Posttest gender analysis of Basic Motor Skills

Considering the results shown in Tables 4 and 5, it is affirmed that, according to gender, there was a significant increase in the means of the gross motor skills aspects analyzed, both in the female and male groups, after the treatment based on the Active Microcurricular Learning Model. The fact that in the climbing aspect for the female group there was an increase, but not significant (p= 0.070), stands out (Table 4 and Table 5).

Table 4. - Female Pretest-Posttest of the Aspects of Gross Motor Skills Analyzed

Table 5. - Male Pretest-Posttest of the Aspects of Gross Motor Skills Analyzed

The research was based on the hypothesis that suggests the variation of gross motor development in its aspects: Running, Climbing, Crawling and Jumping with the application of the Active Microcurricular Learning Model (Posso, et al., 2020a), in five and six year old children of the first year of General Basic Preparatory Education. The descriptive analysis of the data obtained through the tests determined that there was a significant increase in the average mean scores for the variables running, climbing, crawling and jumping related to gross motor skills, both in the analysis by gender and overall, agreeing with Mora and Palacios (1991), likewise with Ruiz (2015), in the sense that children, when subjected to a practice based on movement, dance, sport and play, achieve significant changes in visuoperceptive skills and motor skills, both fine and gross, finding a high correlation between these variables.

This increase is due to what happened in each of the aspects related to gross motor skills: running, climbing, crawling and jumping, as stipulated by Sánchez (2015) who agrees in affirming that among the aspects or indicators, which form gross motor skills, are the locomotor movements or automatism, also called the large body movements, which are defined as gross movements and elements that form in function to the body as a whole, which is the same, the whole body participates, such as: walking, crawling, running and climbing.

Additionally, gross motor skills are developed through dynamic motor coordination, which is the ability to harmonize the movements of different parts of the body, which means the opportunity and ability to synchronize through the coordinated movement of different parts of the body, divided in time, space and effort, allowing the learning and mastery of more complex movements.

With this understanding, the inferential analysis of the study was performed to determine the level of the relationship between the application of the Active Microcurricular Learning Model and the development of Gross Motor Skills; the results show a significance Sig. (2-tailed) lower than the significance level proposed for the analysis, i.e., it is statistically established that there is a significant relationship between the development of the aspects analyzed and the pedagogical intervention based on the auxiliary applied with a high level of confidence.

Given the above, it can be said that psychomotor skills can only facilitate the necessary learning of other aspects of education and bodily action, which is no less important to achieve the psychosomatic balance of the child (Jung, 2010).

As a conclusion of this work, it was determined that, in the group of children, which was submitted to the Active Microcurricular Learning Model, there are significant variations in the elements of gross motor skills, such as running, climbing, crawling and jumping. Statistically, it was demonstrated that this model applied to children aged five and six years old in the first year of General Basic Preparatory Education is effective, according to the results obtained, and that it is of great importance for the development of gross motor skills.

It can also be highlighted that the Active Microcurricular Learning Model can be developed with virtual resources in a Physical Education class, the contextualization is the responsibility of the teacher, that is, the teacher is the one who can align the curricular content to the needs and requirements of students of these ages, enhancing gross motor skills for life in each of the activities performed at home as a guarantor element of the correct psychomotor development of students in this time of pandemic.
