Adopt It will be a methodology of pedagogical-didactic predominant role of discussion based on the theoretical contents and experienced practical problems. Promoting will be wherever possible, knowledge of experiences and practical experiences within the syllabus of theoretical and practical nature, combining exposure to research, discussion and application of the contents in practical work. It is also aims to create a learning environment applied to the sports training problems, so the more theoretical contents will be presented using practical examples and concrete in research in Sports Training. In the evaluation will be carried out a theoretical test, which will be assessed addressed theoretical content related to the need for differentiation / methodological specificity of training and the youth training.
