This impactful resource guide is for international educators and practitioners involved in Physical Education and Sport (PES) who want to learn evidence-based approaches to the teaching of values and character education.
Through a systematic approach to teaching and evaluating values and character education, this book bridges the gap between theory and practice. It offers empirical evidence and strategies to show how values and character can be internalized, through carefully designed experiences, active participation, and regular reinforcement, without compromising the time needed to learn sports skills - a common concern raised by PE teachers and sports coaches. Results from case studies have also revealed that values can be transferred beyond the context of physical education lessons and sports through a collaborative approach and effective communication between teachers, coaches, and parents. Key strategies based on empirical evidence are highlighted in this book. It also highlights an Asian perspective on values and life skills training through Physical Education and provides readers with step-by-step implementation guidelines to simplify some complex strategies in developing values and life skills through PES seamlessly.
The book provides useful information to anyone engaged in developing young people in, and through, sport. In particular it will be of great value to pre-service and in-service teachers and coaches for implementing effective strategies to balance teaching sports skills, values, and life skills effectively in PES.
