| Abstract | "This book assesses the landscape of physical education today and the issues that shape it as a curriculum subject, particularly in the era of COVID-19. It explores the processes of transformation and change that follow government policy and considers what this means for physical education practitioners in schools. The book covers a wide range of important issues, across (micro-)political, social-cultural, historical and post-modernist categories. Bringing together current research with auto-biographical and anecdotal reflections on the realities of PE teaching, it considers the significance of issues such as the emphasis on competitive sport in schools; the socialisation of teachers; the influence of politics and policy on the classroom; colonisation and decolonisation of the curriculum; digital technologies; the health and wellbeing agenda, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Offering a unique set of critical perspectives on physical education today, this book is essential reading for any physical education course, for all teacher training programmes with a PE track, and for all practicing teachers, teacher educators or policy makers with a professional interest in PE"-- Provided by publisher. |
