Abstract

The current research e,phasizes on the practice of Track and Field through recreational games, based on a neew approach such as the ludotechnical model, which suggests as its main input the cognitive, emotional, motor and ludic aspects to be used in Physical Education. The objetive was to determine if Physical Education teachers carry out track and field activities with students through the ludotechnical model. A total of 50 teachers participated in the research from different schools in the canton of Cañar. A survey was applied, which has been previously tested by experienced and qualifield teachers with vast experience inthis field. The SPSS statistical software was used for data processing and analysis of the results, with frequencies and porcentages. The results obtained in this research reveal that the ludotechnical model is not the most popular in devoloping learning processes, since the most widely used model is the traditional one, which is unique to each school. In conclusion, teachers in their teaching practice are still applying other models for Physical Education and Track and Field classes, while, in spite of these limitations, a porcentage, althoughlow, stated that they are aware of the play-technical model and recognize the benefits of applying it.
