Friday, October 5, 2012: 10:30 AM-11:20 AM
Planet Hollywood: Melrose 1 & 2
NASPE/Preparing Teachers for Today’s K-12 Students and Schools (e.g., Technology, Cultural Competency/Relevance, Adapted PE, Coaching Education)
Speaker: David William Chorney, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada
This presentation examines the beliefs and attitudes of undergraduate physical education majors enrolled in Faculties of Education from three notable Universities in Canada. Specifically, this presentation will provide data, both qualitatively and quantitatively, to questions that were asked on three separate surveys as the students progressed through their final year of undergraduate studies. Who are today's PE majors and what do they really think and believe are two of the main questions to be answered.
