Abstract

This paper examines the topic of values in movement activities from the perspective of education. Firstly, different kinds of values relevant for movement activities are distinguished, out of which two kinds of values are highlighted - values specific to movement activities themselves (values inherent in movement activities) and values promoted by educational systems (values added to movement activities).

Education in the context of movement activities needs to foster both of these two kinds of values. Secondly, the example of Olympism is given, to illustrate these two kinds of values.
