Handbook of Research on Developing a Post-Pandemic Paradigm for Virtual Technologies in Higher Education
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced companies, institutions, citizens, and students to rapidly change their behaviors and use virtual technologies to perform their usual working tasks. Though virtual technologies for learning were already present in most universities, the pandemic has forced virtual technologies to lead the way in order to continue teaching and learning for students and faculty around the world. Universities and teachers had to quickly adjust everything from their curriculum to their teaching styles in order to adapt to an online learning environment. Online learning is a complex issue and one that comes with both challenges and opportunities; there is plenty of room for growth...
Science and Football
This book presents a state-of-the-art overview of the science underpinning talent identification and development in the world’s most popular sport. It covers a broad range of topics that span the various sub-disciplines of sports science with contributions from some of the foremost scientists and applied practitioners globally. The chapters provide readers with a comprehensive insight into how sport science is helping practitioners to create more evidence-based approaches when attempting to identify and develop future generations of elite players rather than relying on tradition and precedence. This book dispels some of the myths involved in talent identification and highlights how science is playing an ever-increasing role in guiding and shaping the practices used at the most renowned professional clubs across the globe. It is a must-read for anyone involved in the game at any level including sports scientists, medical staff, coaches, and administrators. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Sports Sciences.
Formação de Dirigentes
O curso de Formação Inicial de Dirigentes constituiu a primeira oferta formativa da Portugal Football School, logo em 2017. Depois de criada a escola, com o intuito de formar melhores agentes para o futebol e para o desporto português, fez todo o sentido que, no seguimento das primeiras formações iniciais, se tenha lançado o curso de Formação Intermédia de Dirigentes, cuja condição primordial de acesso é justamente a frequência da Formação Inicial. Os dois cursos constituem, desta forma, um bloco de formação em continuum, alicerçado na solidez do conhecimento — empírico e científico — de vários formadores da Federação Portuguesa de Futebol e de muitos outros externos à instituição. Neste manual encontram-se as matérias com que, de forma transversal e evolutiva, os formandos se deparam ao frequentar os cursos, essenciais para o cumprimento do objetivo central de melhorar o dirigismo desportivo nacional.
Football and Fascism
Football and Fascism. The Politics of Popular Culture in Portugal tells the hidden history of football and discusses its political, social and cultural foundations, during the longest running authoritarian regime in Europe.

Mobilizing unexplored archival sources, and a wide array of primary materials, this groundbreaking work offers new insight on the administrative structures of the ...
