Abstract

Introduction: Today's low levels of physical activity are one of the main problems threatening our society. In children and adolescents, this drop in physical activity has been affected in recent years by changes in lifestyle. Among these changes, commuting to and from school by motorised transport not only reduces levels of physical activity, but also increases traffic congestion in school environments, leading to increased levels of pollution. The development of a cycling lesson can bring many benefits and encourage a change of habits among teenagers, as they will be forced to cycle to school on days when they have Physical Education. This could lead some of them to value the experience positively and integrate it into their daily lives. Aim: To develop an educational proposal, in accordance with current regulations in Spain. Methods: A proposal for the introduction to cycling in secondary education is provided. Curriculum specification: Objectives, key competences, contents, assessment criteria and learning standards related to current regulations are detailed. Other aspects related to methodology, interdisciplinarity and transversality, timing and assessment of the teaching unit are indicated. Conclusions: Cycling should be practised in Physical Education sessions in Secondary Education, both because of aspects related to the regulations and because of the additional benefits it could bring by favouring changes in lifestyle habits.
