Playing with Research in Health and Physical Education Playing with Research in Health and Physical Education

Have you ever considered what it’s like being in a doctoral seminar? Maybe you have been in one before and you have fond memories of discussing challenging ideas and having your beliefs pushed…Maybe you miss it?

Well... we’re doing it. Ben Dyson (UNC-Greensboro) has recorded his doctoral seminar on pedagogy in PE… it will launch starting June 16th RIGHT HERE on the podcast…it will just pop up like the other episodes… we will put these recordings out twice a month over summer and continue on when the academic year starts in the Northern Hemisphere.

Cooperative learning has been around for a while. It has been used in classrooms and gyms around the world, but how educational is it? Is it a destination or a journey? Join Dr. Casey and Dr. Quennerstedt to discuss their paper that revisits the educative root of cooperative learning through a Deweyan lens.

Kirsten Petrie (@KirstenPetrie) comes on to discuss the innovative, forward thinking and theory rooted HPE curriculum of New Zealand. This is a great example of how a country roots its education system within society, culture, and pays respect to the indigenous people in the country. There is a lot to learn from their approach!

What are we prepared to be held accountable for and to whom?

This and many other questions are highlighted in our 2nd PETE collaborative, a group of PETE educators from around the USA and some from abroad that come together to talk about issues that are important to us. If you haven’t listened to the first one, it’s in the feed as Ep 87.

We had some panelists on this one including Jen Walton Fisette, Hal Lawson, Michael Hemphill, and Helena Baert.

This podcast picks up once we get to the discussion about how the pandemic will affect PETE in general and in overall in higher education..

The paper is the José María Cagigal Scholar Lecture presented at the AIESEP World Congress in Edinburgh 2018 by Dr. Mikael Quennerstedt. 

Risto (@ristomarttinen) is joined by Michael Hemphill, Kevin Richards and our newest member of our article club Dr. Erin Centeio from the University of Hawaii at Manoa (@ecenteio).

We discuss Mikael's paper and other topics related to the concepts he brings up like how to put the E into PE, and maybe why NOT to put the E in PE during the COVID pandemic.
