	<span style="line-height:1.5;">The aim
of this study is to investigate the effect of expertise on didactic functionality
of the teaching gesture of two teachers with different expertise
and similar experience. The audio-visual method was used with interviews. Our
results showed that the teaching gestures in the teaching of shot put depend on
the teacher¡¯s expertise (chi-square = 18.25 2; p = 0.01). Indeed, the expert teacher uses more
representational gestures in comparison with the polyvalent that uses the
manipulations in favour of other actions. Regarding learning structures used
(chi-2 = 22.56; p = 0.001), both teachers define first, then they regulate,
then they evolve and finally they institutionalize. Moreover, the mobilized
didactic technique by both teachers is topogenesis (chi-square
= 31.82 2; p = 0.001). In conclusion, the teaching gesture</span><span style="line-height:1.5;">s in the teaching of shot put depend
on the teacher¡¯s expertise. However, more work experience widens; the
differences are related to the expertise decrease.</span>
