Book Teacher Socialization in Physical Education

Download or read book Teacher Socialization in Physical Education written by K. Andrew R. Richards and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Socialization is a complex process which has a profound effect on how we experience teaching and learning. The study of teachers’ lives and careers through the lens of occupational socialization theory has a rich history in physical education. However, as the social and political climates surrounding education have changed, so have the experiences of teachers. This book pushes beyond traditional perspectives to explore alternative and innovative approaches to socialization. Written by a team of leading international physical education scholars, this is the first edited collection of scholarship on teacher socialization to be published in more than two decades. Divided into five parts, the book provides a review of current knowledge on teacher socialization in school settings, as well as suggestions for different approaches to understanding teacher socialization and recommendations for future directions for studying teachers’ lives and careers. A testament to what is known and what still needs to be learned about the lived experiences of physical educators, Teacher Socialization in Physical Education: New Perspectives provides valuable insights for all physical education students, teachers, and instructors.

Book The Socialization of Teachers

Download or read book The Socialization of Teachers written by Colin Lacey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The change from a student role to a teacher role can be one of the most abrupt and stressful transitions in working life but the process of socialization does not end when the student becomes a fully qualified teacher, as many writers, laymen and sociologists, would have us believe. Colin Lacey argues that socialization is a partial and rarely homogenous process. He illustrates this from a wide variety of interesting case material to show how student teachers adapt their responses to the classroom situation.

Book Examining the Socialization of Physical Education Teachers

Download or read book Examining the Socialization of Physical Education Teachers written by Thomas M. Geisler and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract In the last thirty years childhood obesity and inactivity rates in the United States have increased at alarming rates (Ogden, Carroll, Kit, & Flegal, 2014). In response to this, physical education curriculum is shifting to focus more on health promotion rather than competitive team sports and game play. This focus is reflected in the recently revised K-12 physical education national content standards and learning outcomes and is impacting how colleges are preparing future teachers (SHAPE America (Organization), Couturier, Chepko, & Holt/Hale, 2014). Changing how physical education is taught can be challenging for teacher educators, in part due to the fact that students’ deeply held beliefs about the purposes of physical education are often based on years of experience in traditional, PK-12, sports-based physical education programs (Placek et al., 1995). The purpose of this study was to explore how teacher candidates and recent graduates experience the process of occupational socialization into their profession as physical education teachers. Utilizing occupational socialization theory, this study examined factors that impacted participants’ teaching perspectives and explored the beliefs they held about the goals and purposes of PK-12 physical education. The adoption of the national physical education standards by the Vermont Agency of Education, along with recent legislation (Act 77) that is changing the way schools prepare PK-12 students for college and careers, make the Vermont context a rich setting. This phenomenological case study was set within a small public university located in Vermont in the United States during the summer and fall of 2016. The units of analysis included five freshman year physical education candidates, five junior year physical education candidates, and five recent graduates, also from the same institution, who were employed as Vermont physical education teachers. Three secondary participants included a Vermont principal and two physical education teacher education faculty members. Data collection methods included eighteen semi-structured interviews and document review of course syllabi and student assessments. Findings suggested that participants: 1) enter the field with teaching orientations rather than coaching orientations, 2) believe that the purpose of physical education is lifelong health and wellness, 3) develop innovative teaching perspectives during teacher education that persist into teaching careers, and 4) identify as agents of change in the field of physical education. Understanding how students are socialized into careers as physical education teachers may inform the decision-making for physical education teacher education faculty and PK-12 physical education teachers.

Book The Role of Career Goals in Physical Education Teacher Education Faculty Socialization

Download or read book The Role of Career Goals in Physical Education Teacher Education Faculty Socialization written by Robert Knipe (Ph. D.) and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: Through the lens of Occupational Socialization Theory, the purpose of this study was to explore the socialization of an early career PETE faculty member who adopted a professional goal of a career in higher education. Method: Using a retrospective case study design, a faculty member with two years of experience was selected using purposeful sampling (n = 1). Data sources included: semi-structured and unstructured interviews, critical incident accounts and document analysis. Results: The study yielded two themes across the five phases of socialization: (a) a care ethic was present within the participant, teachers and mentors, and (b) an achievement orientation shaped by his early life experiences pushes his goals to be ever expanding. Conclusions: The earlier career faculty member’s socialization framed the role of teacher and professor as a position rooted in care. Once the earlier career faculty member had set intentions of a career in higher education, the goal did not impact Connor’s engagement and effort in their current position of K-12 Inservice teacher

Book School Physical Education and Teacher Education

Download or read book School Physical Education and Teacher Education written by Ann MacPhail and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-01-23 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Setting a common international agenda for physical education, this book asks how physical education and physical education teacher education can be reconfigured together so that they are responsive to changes in today’s fast-paced, diverse and uncertain global society. It argues that only a revolutionary move away from national policy silos can reinvigorate physical education and lead to improved, equitable outcomes for children and youth, and both novice and veteran teachers. Drawing on developing success stories in diverse places, this book emphasizes three important strategies: international-comparative analyses, which facilitate cross-border knowledge generation, innovation, professional learning and continuous improvement; solid, dynamic partnerships between teacher education programmes and exemplary school physical education programmes; and knowledge-generating teams consisting of exemplary teachers and teacher educators. Each chapter provides viable alternatives and rationales framed by unique national and local contexts. Significantly, these chapters announce that the work that lies ahead – and starts now – is a collective action project. It necessitates collaborative research and development among policy leaders, researchers, teacher education specialists, physical education teachers and, in some cases, school-age students. This is essential reading for all researchers with an interest in physical education or teacher education, and an invaluable source of new perspectives for physical education students, pre-service and in-service teachers, and educational administrators and policymakers.

Book A Self Study of a Physical Education Teacher Navigating Their Role in a Professional Learning Community

Download or read book A Self Study of a Physical Education Teacher Navigating Their Role in a Professional Learning Community written by Molly Klatt and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Years of research has documented the socialization of inservice physical education teachers, while the socialization of physical education faculty members has only recently become a research focus. Self-study of teacher education practices is becoming increasingly popular when exploring the lived experiences of physical education faculty. In this study, we used self-study of teacher education practices to understand the experiences of Molly, a current physical education teacher. Molly’s experiences differ from those of many other teacher educators as she was the only physical education teacher in her school. She had been using the self-study method to help her navigate her role in a professional learning community as the only specialist teacher. Data were collected through journaling, documents, and surveys. Qualitative data analyses resulted in the construction of three emerging themes: (1) unreciprocated expectations, (2) innovative socialization, and (3) schoolwide contribution. Molly’s journey was marked by both successes and challenges, but at the end of the five months she felt that she had grown as an educator. Further, Molly’s teaching experience and willingness to adapt and contribute where she could helped enhance her growth as a teacher. Results are discussed with reference to Kevin’s socialization and directions for research are provided.

Book Self Study in Physical Education Teacher Education

Download or read book Self Study in Physical Education Teacher Education written by Alan Ovens and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-05-22 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this in-depth examination of self-study as a research methodology, an international selection of physical education scholars share their ideas and experiences and consider the value of self-study as a vector for highlighting the emerging conflicts, dilemmas, and debates currently developing in teaching and teacher education pedagogies. A vital new addition to Springer’s series Self-Study of Teacher Education Practices, the volume is divided into three sections assessing the significance of the approach itself, offering detailed subject-relevant case studies, and exploring the nuances and controversies attending the evolution of the methodology. The contributors show how self-study enables reflexivity in pedagogical practice, a notable lacuna in current critical research, and at the same time they make the technique accessible to scholars of physical education wanting a practicable introduction to the subject. The analysis also explores the implications of applying self-study to pedagogy itself, to the curriculum, and to human movement and educational practice more generally. By embracing more organic, emergent notions of research practice and learning, the book achieves a broader and more inclusive survey of pedagogical work in physical education teacher education that fully acknowledges the complexities of the field.

Book The Influence of Mentoring Relationships on Occupational Socialization in Physical Education Teacher Education

Download or read book The Influence of Mentoring Relationships on Occupational Socialization in Physical Education Teacher Education written by Lauren Bean and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mentorship aids in student retention and creating quality PE teachers but socialization of preservice teachers (PSTs) can hinder continuation of best practices when transitioning into the profession. This study investigated how occupational socialization phases interact with perceptions of quality mentor relationships of 25 current students and alumni in a Physical Education Teacher Education (PETE) program. Utilizing an exploratory qualitative design, participants from professional and organizational occupational socialization phases were interviewed. Frameworks implemented were the theories of occupational socialization (Lawson, 1983; Templin & Schempp, 1989) and indicators of quality mentor relationships (France & Petitpas, 2015). Data were analyzed through the method of Consensual Qualitative Research (Hill et al., 2005). Participants identified five categories that informed their perceptions of quality mentor relationships: building trust, instilling confidence, buy-in, investment and growth, and opportunities. Additionally, participants identified five categories that informed the perceptions of the impact from their mentor: instilling PE pedagogical skills and perspectives, continued connection, emulating their mentors, application of PE pedagogical skills and perspectives, and see the bigger picture. Participants within the professional phase supported previous research of being active agents in their socialization. In opposition, mentors had positive influences on participants’ negotiation of their beliefs and perceptions of PE when entering the organizational phase. PETE students benefit from quality mentor relationships, which take time to form. Faculty should engage in training on the foundations of building quality relationships and understanding their students’ socialization of PE to be more impactful in shaping the future practices of PSTs.

Book Physical Education Teacher Education Futures

Download or read book Physical Education Teacher Education Futures written by Jamie Jacon Brunsdon and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT The purpose of study one was to describe the influence of occupational socialization on the physical education teacher education (PETE) programs sport pedagogy doctoral students (DSs) intended to deliver once they began life as faculty members in universities and colleges. Participants were eight DSs located at four American universities. Data were collected with four interpretive techniques (formal and informal interviews, documents and artifacts, written outline of an ideal PETE program) and analyzed using analytic induction and constant comparison. DSs had conservative, liberal, and eclectic beliefs regarding PETE. The forces that shaped the DS s views and beliefs were mostly similar to those described in previous research, although there were some new and nuanced findings. The study indicates the need for DSs to explore their own views regarding physical education and PETE and the forces that shaped their perspectives. The purpose of study two was to describe the influence of secondary organizational socialization on seven early career faculty members (FMs) implementation of physical education teacher education (PETE). Data were collected with four qualitative techniques and analyzed with standard interpretive methods. Cultural elements and conditions that helped or hindered FMs deliver PETE were identified. FMs coped with negative and unfavorable elements of their cultures and conditions by fully complying with, strategically complying with, and strategically redefining their situations, or finding a new position. The stories of these FMs should inspire administrators, senior colleagues, and those training doctoral students to reflect on the degree to which they help or hinder neophyte FMs, as well as aid doctoral students preparing to make the transition into faculty positions. The purpose of study three was to describe the impact of secondary organizational socialization on mid-career faculty members (FMs) delivery of physical education teacher education (PETE). Data were collected with four qualitative techniques and analyzed using analytic induction and constant comparison. Cultural components and conditions that supported or undermined the FMs implement PETE were identified. FMs fully complied with positive aspects of their cultures and conditions and coped with negative and unfavorable aspects by strategically complying with or strategically redefining their situations, or finding a new position. These FMs stories should help doctoral students transition into higher education and inspire other FMs and administrators to reflect on the extent to which they support or undermine those attempting to conduct PETE.

Book Pedagogical Content Knowledge and Occupational Socialization in Preservice Physical Education Teachers

Download or read book Pedagogical Content Knowledge and Occupational Socialization in Preservice Physical Education Teachers written by Dong Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Despite the importance of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) and occupational socialization for preservice physical education teachers (PPETs), few researchers have discussed the relationship between the two critical theories. The primary purpose of this study was to explore how PPETs’ PCK influences their occupational socialization. The study employed a mixed-methods design, using a PCK standard test and Teachers’ Occupational Beliefs Survey (TOBS) to collect quantitative data (n = 56) and semi-structured interviews to collect qualitative data (n = 8). The PPETs’ PCK significantly predicted their occupational socialization. No significant mean difference was found across four cohorts in PCK and occupational socialization. Two categories with six themes were extracted from the interview data. The researcher concluded that PCK and the experiences to learn PCK positively influence PPETs’ occupational socialization development. Both the acculturation and professional socialization phases have a critical impact on PPETs’ PCK and occupational socialization.
