Why do so many PE programs adopt the game TGfU categories as the dominant way that games and sports are delivered? Is this the most effective method to engage our students and help them become physically active for life? In this episode I am joined by Justen OConner from Monash University as we discuss his recent paper "Rethinking the classification of games and sports in physical education: a response to changes in sport and participation" Full Article is available at https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/17408989.2022.2061938

The Best of 2019 | A Year in Review

Great idea to create these podcasts.  PD doesn’t necessarily have to be a week long workshop.  It can be something as simple as driving somewhere while listening to a podcast.  Hearing the perspectives of other high quality people in our field will undoubtedly help you to become more reflective in your own practice.  High five to Artie for all of his work so far for regarding PD for PE.

Long Term Athletic Development | Rick Howard

A very special episode of The #PhysEdcast where I chat with Matt Ladwig from Iowa State University about the research featured recently in the New York Times and on Fox News. Matt shares the research where he and his colleagues have found that how we felt during gym classes years or decades ago may shape how we feel about exercise today and whether we choose to be physically active. While it's not new information, we chat about how this research can support the cause of advocating for quality physical education experiences and opening conversations with those outside the #PhysEd bubble.
