This book was released on 2017 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the Centers for Disease Control, more than one-third of adults in the United States are obese. Obesity affects people socially, culturally, genetically, metabolically, behaviorally, and even psychologically. In 1972, Title XI was enacted. This law requires that all classes must be coeducational and equal opportunities must be provided for everybody, regardless of gender. Physical Education (PE) classes then became coed. In many cases, coed classes have had a negative effect on a portion of the participation levels in PE. The purpose of this study was to examine single-sex classes versus coeducational classes in 7th grade PE and the effect it had on physical activity (PA) levels and self-competence. A secondary purpose was to examine differences in PA levels between males and females in PE.

Download or read book Same Difference written by Carol Lee Bacchi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are women the same as or different from men? Should women seek ‘equality’ with men or admit their ‘difference’? First published in 1990, Same Difference explores these highly-charged political questions by examining how the women’s movement has engaged with them over time and in three countries—Australia, Britain, and America. Case studies include disputes about maternity leave, protective legislation, affirmative action, custody, pornography, rape, and women’s supposed metaphysical differences from men—their greater nurturing and caring capacity. Challenging a common view of the women’s movement as perpetually riven into ‘sameness’ and ‘difference’ camps, Same Difference highlights the political conditions which impel some feminists to argue in these terms. The implication of the analysis is that debates about sexual difference divert attention from important social issues such as how society is to reproduce itself and what kind of society we wish to create. This book will be a beneficial read for students and researchers of feminist theory, women’s studies, and sociology.

Download or read book Perceptions of Seventh and Eighth Grade Girls Toward Coeducational Physical Education Classes in Five Middle Schools in East Tennessee written by Shannon Clabo Sullivan and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the participation, perceptions, and preferences of seventh- and eighth-grade girls in coeducational and gender-separated physical education classes in five schools in East Tennessee. The participants in this study were seventh- and eighth-grade girls attending public schools in two East Tennessee counties. Participants completed a questionnaire pertaining to their physical education classes. Although 465 students were invited to participate in this study, only 241 students returned the permission form. This resulted in a 50% response rate. The findings were descriptive in nature, although basic analyses were calculated to identify any relationships among the different variables. The literature review examined adolescents' activity patterns, adolescents' self-esteem, gender equity issues, coeducational physical education versus same-gender physical education, and physical educators and their roles. The study revealed that most seventh- and eighth-grade girls dressed out for physical education and participated in coeducational physical education classes. A majority of the seventh- and eighth-grade girls preferred having a female physical education teacher. Seventh- and eighth-grade girls' participation rates did not decrease in a coeducational class setting. There was not a significant relationship between the gender of the physical education teacher and seventh- and eighth-grade girls' participation in physical education activities. Seventh- and eighth-grade girls agreed their physical education teachers were fun, fair, and easy to talk to. Seventh- and eighth-grade girls also agreed that their physical education teachers explained things well and motivated them to do their best. Having boys in physical education classes was not a major factor for girls in dressing out for physical education classes or in their participation rates.
Download or read book Comparison of Effort and Comfortability Between Single gender and Coeducational High School Physical Education Classes written by Vincent William Stubstad and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Research questions: My action research project goal was to investigate the impact of single-gender and coeducational physical education classes can have on high school students' comfortability and effort in class. I wanted to see if there were changes that I could make to my class that would give students the best chance to succeed. I also wanted to be able to find out if my class preferred a single-gender or coeducational grouping. This information would allow me to arrange my class in a specific way to help my students become comfortable and give a better effort. Therefore my two research questions were: 1. How does a student's level of effort compare in a single-gender physical education class to a coeducational physical education class? 2. How does the level of comfortability in a single-gender physical education class compare to a coeducational physical education class?"--Leaf 14.

This book may be especially useful to teacher candidates and as a professional development tool. What happens in physical activity learning spaces is of great significance to the learners that occupy those spaces. Broadly speaking, one cannot deny that education is rife with error, nor can one ignore the presence of global-level issues in physical education. Using a case study approach, this book addresses social and cultural issues that can and do arise in physical education. This book offers a tool for studying and better understanding how social and cultural issues impact student learning in physical education. Chapter authors point toward possibilities for better understanding sociocultural issues in physical education settings.
