Overview

Maximising Learning in Physical Education identifies some key challenges in physical education that impact pupils’ learning, looking at how they manifest over time and suggesting possible ways teachers can address them. Each chapter features a real-life case study or a scenario to illustrate a specific challenge and identify some possible causes. It then draws on theory, research and evidence that might explain what is happening. The book highlights how teachers use theory and research evidence to help address the challenges and maximise pupil learning. The challenges include: reflection/reflective practice the process of learning progression and continuity in the curriculum assessment use of feedback motivation behaviour for learning learning in the physical, cognitive and affective domains inclusion, special education needs and disabilities trauma-informed pupils participation in physical activity outside lessons. Many chapters are co-written by practising teachers and teacher educators and all include key takeaways and reflections, making this essential reading for all secondary physical education teachers.
