Summary |
Used by the United States Physical Education Association for workshops on personal and social responsibility, Teaching Responsibility Through Physical Activity is the field-tested, inspirational reference you've been waiting for |
|
In 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 |
