learning of physical education in the primary school. By taking a
developmental approach, readers are encouraged to plan lessons that
are individually relevant, worthwhile and exciting for children,
and to ensure that learning is at the heart of the physical
education experience. In addition to covering all activity areas of
the physical education curriculum, the authors provide guidance to
ensure that the subject is planned, delivered, assessed and managed
effectively. Teachers are encouraged to consider a range of issues
that impact on subject delivery, and reflect on strategies and

In this in-depth examination of self-study as a research
methodology, an international selection of physical education
scholars share their ideas and experiences and consider the value
of self-study as a vector for highlighting the emerging conflicts,
dilemmas, and debates currently developing in teaching and teacher
education pedagogies. A vital new addition to Springer s series
Self-Study of Teacher Education Practices, the volume is divided
into three sections assessing the significance of the approach
itself, offering detailed subject-relevant case studies, and
exploring the nuances and controversies attending the evolution of
the methodology.
The contributors show how self-study enables reflexivity in
pedagogical practice, a notable lacuna in current critical
research, and at the same time they make the technique accessible
to scholars of physical education wanting a practicable
introduction to the subject. The analysis also explores the
implications of applying self-study to pedagogy itself, to the
curriculum, and to human movement and educational practice more
generally. By embracing more organic, emergent notions of research
practice and learning, the book achieves a broader and more
inclusive survey of pedagogical work in physical education teacher
education that fully acknowledges the complexities of the
field."
The plays is this book came about via the unique work done in
schools by Peter Mortimer. In each case, he worked through a series
of workshops with a group of pupils, and out of these a dramatic
piece slowly evolved. With one exception - a play created in a
Palestinian refugee camp - the first session started with a totally
blank sheet awaiting the input of the creative team. As Peter
Mortimer stresses, such a process is risky and at the start often
terrifying, but ultimately proves to be highly rewarding for all.
The youngsters helped to create the plot, characters and style, and
were often involved in costume and set design as well as producing
programmes and posters. And then they became actors. All these
plays were given public performances, often in professional
theatres. This approach gave the pupils an involvement in and
commitment to the plays which no ordinary drama class could bring.
In his Introduction, Mortimer writes about the beneficial effects
such projects can have on young developing minds, but also warns
how such work is increasingly difficult to undertake in a school
philosophy of tick boxes, league tables and inflexible curricula.
Addressing social justice issues in a physical education context is
necessary both at the higher education and PK-12 settings. Limited
undergraduate and graduate programs educate their students about
social justice issues, thus, resulting in licensed teachers who
lack the content knowledge, comfort level and pedagogical tools on
how to educate students about issues related to social justice.
Grounded in the transformative pedagogy theoretical framework, this
book will offer practical lessons and strategies on a wide variety
of social issues (e.g., body, race, self-identity, immigration)
that can be used in teacher education and the PK-12 setting. The
goal is for teacher educators and practitioners to feel more
comfortable with teaching about and for social justice and believe
this resource will enhance their content and pedagogical knowledge
in the quest to achieve that goal. The purpose of this book is to
provide physical education teacher educators and PK-12 physical
education teachers with lesson plans and resources on how to
address social justice issues in a physical education setting. This
book will include sample lesson plans/activities that address a
wide variety of social issues - the what, the how and the
challenges and possibilities that the author(s) encountered when
teaching such a lesson/activity. Addressing social justice issues
has been limited in physical education, both in higher education
and PK-12, especially in the United States. Numerous scholars,
internationally, have engaged in research studies that explored how
social justice issues are addressed in physical education teacher
education. Although we have research to support the limitations and
complexities of teaching about sociocultural issues and for social
justice, a more practical resource for teacher educators and
inservice teachers is needed. The market for this book will be
physical education teacher educators and PK-12 physical education
teachers throughout the world.

Sport Education: International Perspectives presents a series of
studies of the innovative pedagogical model that has taken the
physical education world by storm. Since the emergence of the Sport
Education model in the mid-1990s it has been adopted and adapted in
physical education programs around the world and a new research
literature has followed in its wake. This book offers a review of
international Sport Education schemes and projects, and documents
what it takes to run a successful Sport Education program.
Exploring Sport Education across all levels of education, from the
elementary school to the university, the book provides answers to
key question such as: * What models have been developed to teach
Sport Education? * What do successful SE programs look like? * What
do teachers think about SE and how to make it work? * What are the
implications for professional development across the range of human
movement studies? With contributions from leading international
scholars and practitioners from the US, Europe and Asia, this book
offers a more thoughtful and critical set of perspectives on Sport
Education than any other. It is essential reading for any student,
pre-service teacher, classroom teacher or university instructor
working in SE, PE, youth sport, sports coaching or related
disciplines.
