This is the next issue of the Australian Book Club. This week the Aussie “blokes” talk about “what’s wright in PE” Here is a synopisis. Exploring positive narratives in physical education (PE) involves recognizing and highlighting the valuable contributions and positive impacts of PE programs. This includes understanding PE's purpose, its connection to wider school and community contexts, and how inclusive and holistic curriculum practices can create a positive learning environment.

This is the 6th Australian Book Club. The speakers are Brendan SueSee, Michael Davies, and Dave Robinson Synopsis/Background Most Pedagogical or curriculum models in physical education (PE) focus on various content like health, game tactics, sport cultures, and expression. The Practising model has no content as the student generates the content through practising. This article presents the practising model as a way to put the P back in physical education through the pedagogy of practise. Barker, D. M., Aggerholm, K., Standal, O., & Larsson, H. (2018).

Unsettling experiences and situational conditions, Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, DOI: 10.1080/17408989.2024.2352825 This paper captured a wide range of unsettling PE experiences by taking different perspectives of 677 physical education students. It used a social constructivist approach to address two questions: (1) What kind of experiences are interpreted as unsettling by students in PE? (2) Which situational conditions are associated with students’ unsettling PE experiences? We speak about some of the challenges for PE teachers whilst at the same time considering that the issues raised are not uniquely ‘PE’ problems but also problems of society.…

Sport, Education and Society, 29(3), 358–370. https://doi.org/10.1080/13573322.2022.2142776 In this article the authors discuss the challenges that the COVID-19 pandemic created for preservice teachers’ knowledge in and about movement and their developing movement capability in PETE in a Swedish University. In a way, covid potentially accelerated the process of a Physical Education degree transitioning to fully online. We discuss why this continues in some universities and the factors that contribute to it. We also discuss some of the effects we think it is having on graduate teachers and ultimately the effect it may have on students – all because the PE community and others do not value the 3 dimensions of Arnold’s model equally.…

The second Australian Article Club takes on outsourcing in PE. In Australia and NZ, particularly in primary schools (years prep-6) pe is increasingly being taught by outside providers who usually are not pe trained teachers. The syllabus or curriculum in P-6 expects that a classroom generalist teacher can teach PE. It is only in the Australian states of Queensland and Tasmania that specialists trained primary PE teachers are used. Title of article is in link below: “Should primary school PE be outsourced?

352: Australian Article Club 1 "Arnold wanted X but we got Y" 1:09:46

1:09:46

For over 30 years in the Australian state of Queensland, a final grade for physical education (in years 11 and 12) was given based on 50% theory and 50% practical, valuing movement and knowledge equally. This article was written in response to changes in a syllabus in the Australian state of Queensland in 2019 which awarded a final mark based on 82% theory and 18% practical or movement. Despite this unequal valuing of movement, the syllabus cites Arnold’s perspective as ‘a philosophical and educative framework to promote deep learning in three dimensions: about, through and in movement contexts’ (QCAA, 2018, p.1). Based on the syllabus citing Arnold’s philosophy it is reasoned these principles (valuing knowledge and movement equally) will be evident throughout this Australian state syllabus. Confusingly, they were not. SueSee, B., Pill, S., & Williams, J. (2023). Arnold wanted X but we got Y – the Queensland senior physical education syllabus application of the Arnoldian perspective.
