International Sport Development
In this program Sport and Physical Education (PE) will be approached from a Dutch, International and comparative perspective. This means that concepts used in different countries towards PE and Sport will be discussed. The program starts from the idea that teachers in Sport and PE are willing to develop themselves as European or Global citizens. This perspective, the development of an international teachers identity, means that international and intercultural competences are the main focus of the program.
By following this program, students;
Can value cultural diversity
Can show cultural self-awareness
Are willing to learn about other cultures and to suspend judgement
Developed their personal and professional identity towards European or Global citizenship

Learning philosophy
Democratic: In a team with different nationalities the ISD-program will be constructed together, starting from individual (learning) ambitions and goals.
Comparative perspective: Changing prejudices by comparing other countries and cultures
Action-learning: acquiring knowledge through actions and practice and learning from within.
Coretasks and assessment
The curricula of the ISD program is 'core-task' based. This means that the assignments students have to make lead to learning outcomes, which have a positive contribution to competent behavior concerning the task. The task for every student is to show competent performance and development in the four core-tasks (mentioned below).
The four tasks each lead to different products (see table below).
Coretask | Assignments (result) | Code |
1. Physical education and sport programs in an international perspective (8 credits) | Teachers (education) report | HLVH2SPEI |
2. International projects in physical education and sport (8 credits) | International Project | HLVH2ECSP |
3. Doing research in the area of physical education and sport, from an international and comparative perspective (8 credits) | Research/essay/paper | HLVH2ISPE |
4. Developing a personal and professional identity towards European and global citizenship (6 credits) | Learning story | HLVH2APC |
Literature and concepts
The ISD-program has a democratic approach to education. This means that we assume that students are able to organize their own learning, in cooperation with peers. To create this learning space we focus on tasks, and through these tasks the learning outcomes will be achieved. The consequence of this approach is that there is no (fixed) schedule, or program. In the program lectures and assignments will be given. The literature mentioned below can help conceptual development in the area of internationalisation and intercultural competence. The literature is not obligatory (Other concepts, like; 'the participation ladder', 'The Iceberg Model' and 'Action Type', will be discussed in lectures)
