If you want to know how to be the best, you learn from the best.
Two SHAPE America Physical Education Administrators of the Year
share what it takes to be an outstanding administrator in
Organization and Administration of Physical Education: Theory and
Practice. Jayne Greenberg and Judy LoBianco, veteran leaders in the
field with decades of successful administration experience, head a
sterling list of contributors who have taught at the elementary,
middle school, high school, and college levels in urban, suburban,
and rural settings. Together, these contributors expound on the
roles and responsibilities of physical education administrators
through both theoretical and practical lenses. The result is a book
that will be highly useful to undergraduate students looking to
enter the field, as well as a resource for administrators in
physical education leadership positions who are looking to acquire
new skills and innovative ideas in each of the five areas of
responsibility covered in the book. Part I covers leadership,
organization, and planning. It explores leadership and management
styles and presents practical theories of motivation, development,
and planning. It also looks at how to plan for the essential
components of an effective, quality physical education program. In
part II, readers examine various curriculum and instruction models
and navigate through curriculum theory and mapping. This section
also offers guidance on planning events, including special programs
and fundraising projects, and how to build a team and secure
community connections for those special events. Part III helps
administrators plan and design new school sites or renovate
existing ones, and it presents contemporary concepts in universal
design and sustainable environmental design. It also offers ideas
on how to incorporate technology to meet the needs of 21st-century
learners, including the use of social media and robotics in
delivering instruction and communication. Part IV explores written,
verbal, and electronic communication issues, as well as legal and
human resource issues. Administrators learn how to lobby and
advocate for physical education, how the legal system affects
schools, and how to examine personnel issues, bullying, and
harassment. Part V explains the fiscal responsibilities inherent in
administrative positions, including budgeting, bidding, and
purchasing. It also shows how administrators can secure funding
independent of district or local funding, offering many examples of
grants and fundraising opportunities with sample grant
applications. Throughout the text, special features-Advice From the
Field and Leadership in Action-share tips, nuggets of wisdom, and
examples of administrators excelling in their various
responsibilities. The book also comes with many practical examples
of forms that are useful in carrying out responsibilities, and each
chapter offers objectives, a list of key concepts, and review
questions to facilitate the learning. In addition, the text has
related online resources consisting of supportive materials and
documents. Organization and Administration of Physical Education:
Theory and Practice, published with SHAPE America, offers the solid
foundational theory that administrators need and shows how to put
that theory into daily practice. Note: A code for accessing
HKPropel is included with all print books.
