Keywords:
water competencies, prevention, swimming educationAbstract
The current article tackles the teaching and training of swimming, seeking a critical view of it as related to drowning prevention. In order to do so, some concepts which support the design of appropriate interventions will be updated. From an ecological perspective, an educational experience derived from the causes of injuries in, on and around the aquatic media, adapted to data continuously collected in its context, will be shared.References
