Teaching Responsibility Through Physical Activity
Don Hellison presents a practical, street smart teaching approach that uses sport and exercise to help young people take more responsibility for themselves and the well-being of others. An expert on affective physical education and sport and a longtime teacher of at-risk students, Hellison draws on his own experiences and those of colleagues from across the country to provide proven strategies on using the gymnasium, playground, and playing field as centers for building student self-esteem; empowering students to develop their own physical education goals; improving the quality of K-12 physical education classes, extended-day programs, diversion programs, and organized sport programs; and putting the character development claims of physical programs into practice. |

Reflective Approach to Teaching Physical Education
Don Hellison and Tom Templin ask teachers and future teachers to address the question "What's worth doing?" before they begin to plan a physical education program. When teachers know their own answer to that question, it is much easier to plan a curriculum. Is the main goal to promote fitness? To instruct students in motor skills? To help kids feel better about themselves? Identifying priorities is the first task for anyone developing a reflective approach to teaching. |
