Today I’m joined by Dr. Adam Mullis, a passionate educator and advocate for health and physical education. Adam is in his 10th year of teaching middle school PE and health, holds advanced degrees in curriculum, assessment, and instruction, and has served in leadership roles across multiple professional organizations. He’s presented at numerous conferences, written over $60,000 in grants, and helped his schools earn national recognition as some of the “Healthiest Schools in America.”
In this episode, we discuss:
Why assessment is essential to legitimizing PE
The difference between measuring effort vs. learning
How to break down and communicate daily objectives
Using assessment data to differentiate instruction
The power of student self-assessment
The importance of building a strong learning culture
How conferences and professional communities influence growth
