Education is a cutting-edge book that teachers trust for assessing
middle school and high school physical education students. Also a
highly popular undergraduate text for courses that focus on
performance-based assessment, this new third edition features
significant additions, enhancements, and updates: New chapters on
effective management and instruction delivery, which make it
appropriate for PETE instructors using the book for secondary
methods courses A new chapter on assessments with various
instructional models, including Sport Education, Teaching Games for
Understanding, Cooperative Learning, Personalized System of
Instruction, and Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility A new

resource) A new sample unit on ultimate Frisbee in the chapter on

Performance-Based Assessment shows readers how to use portfolios to
assess fitness, and it offers an example of a portfolio assessment
for a high school fitness course. It also guides readers in using
skill tests in physical education. Written by two authors with a
combined 26 years of experience teaching physical education in
public schools, the text discusses various assessment formats,
helping PETE students and in-service teachers know both what to
assess and how to assess it. Readers learn how to develop
culminating and progressive assessments, as well as plan for
continuous performance-based assessments and acquire effective
teaching strategies for standards-based instruction. All content is
aligned with current SHAPE America national standards and is
supported by research from educational assessment giants such as
Tom Guskey, Richard Stiggins, Dylan William, Robert Marzano, and
James Popham. The book is organized into four parts, with part I
introducing readers to performance-based assessment issues such as
the need for change in the assessment process, how assessments can
be used to enhance learning, the various assessment domains and
methods, and the use of rubrics in assessments. Part II explores
aspects of managing and implementing physical education lessons. In
part III, readers learn about the components of performance-based
assessment, and in part IV, they delve into issues affecting
grading and implementing continuous performance-based assessment.
This groundbreaking text explains the theory behind assessment and,
through its numerous models, shows how to apply that theory in
practice. The text is filled with practical examples, much more so
than the typical assessment book. And it is supplemented by a web
resource that houses forms, charts, and other material for
instructors to use in their performance-based assessments. Class
size, skill levels, and time factors can make assessments
difficult-but far from impossible. The examples in the book are
meant to be modified as needed, with the ideas in the book used as
starting points. Teachers can use the material, examples, and tools
in this book to create assessments that enhance student learning,
providing them feedback to let them know what they have
accomplished and how they can work toward goals of greater
competence.
