| A Dialogue on Curriculum Alignment Between K-12 Physical Education and Kinesiology | ||
| Structure | Curriculum and Instruction Academy | |
| Description | This session focuses on curriculum alignment between K-12 physical education and contemporary kinesiology. A recent emphasis on health-related fitness development and physical activity behavior change has brought about an optimistic outlook on PE; however, there are some fundamental issues that have not been addressed. One of the issues is curriculum dis-alignment between K-12 physical education and contemporary kinesiology. Almost all K-12 subject areas can be clearly aligned with the curriculum of its core discipline at the university level. This program will center on the issue of K-12 physical education curriculum being meaningfully aligned with the curriculum of university level kinesiology. | |
