Learning to Teach Physical Education in the Secondary School: A Companion to School Experience (Learning to Teach Subjects in the Secondary School Series)

by Susan Capel (Editor)

There are many teaching skills and issues covered in initial teacher education which student PE teachers must apply to their own subject. However, the complexity of teaching PE can make this difficult to do. This book focuses, therefore, on the requirements of student PE teachers in relation to teaching skills and issues covered in initial teacher education courses.
Throughout the book the theory underpinning those skills and issues is interlinked with tasks which can be undertaken alone, with another student or with a tutor. The book is designed to help student PE teachers to develop teaching skills, knowledge and understanding of the wider context of PE, along with the ability to reflect critically and to develop professional judgement.

This book offered a theoretical understanding to Teaching PE and provided me with some great ideas.

I strongly recommend it for any PE teacher or trainer.
