This book critically explores urgent questions that researchers,
educators, and policy makers need to consider and address in order
to better our understanding and capacity to transform education.
Focusing on areas that underpin the empirical, theoretical, and
strategic research of the Pedagogy, Education and Praxis (PEP)
International Research Network, it discusses the following topics:
the nature of educational praxis; research approaches that
facilitate praxis and praxis development; changing cultural,
social, political and material conditions affecting the educational
practices of teachers; and how good professional practice in
teaching, leading, and professional learning are understood and
experienced. Presenting findings emerging from the Pedagogy,
Education and Praxis research, the book raises new questions and
offers new ways of thinking about the identified issues and themes
in light of current educational concerns and the prevalence of
neoliberal conditions being experienced in educational settings
around the globe. It provides supporting evidence and illustrative
examples to help readers understand important concepts, situations,
and concerns, and brings together intellectual and
cultural-historical traditions that, when considered in relation to
each other, open up critical opportunities and ideas orienting
readers towards future educational transformation.
The Routledge Handbook of Primary Physical Education goes further
than any other book in exploring the specific theoretical and
practical components of teaching PE at the primary or elementary
school level. As the most comprehensive review of theory, research
and practice in primary PE yet published, it represents an
essential evidence-based guide for all students, researchers and
practitioners working in this area. Written by a team of leading
international primary PE specialists from academic and practitioner
backgrounds, this handbook examines the three discourses that
dominate contemporary PE: health, education and sport. With case
studies from twelve countries, including the UK, USA, Canada,
Australia, New Zealand, Norway, Spain and South Korea, it provides
a truly international perspective on key themes and issues such as:
primary PE pedagogy, policy and curriculum development assessment
and standards child development diversity and inclusion teacher
training and professional development. Offering an unprecedented
wealth of material, this handbook is an invaluable reference for
any undergraduate or postgraduate degree programme in primary
physical education or any primary teacher training course with a
physical education element.
