Dynamic Physical Education for Secondary
School Students (DPE) has been the go-to textbook for preparing future
secondary physical educators for more than 30 years. Now in its ninth
edition, this trusted resource has been thoroughly updated to maintain
its high quality and continue to meet the needs of preservice and
in-service teachers in developing curricula that meet SHAPE America
physical education standards and grade-level outcomes.
DPE
offers the best of both worlds: in-depth explorations of critical
concepts to provide readers the foundational knowledge they need to
teach quality physical education, combined with a host of ready-to-use
activities. The result is a resource that will help preservice physical
educators feel confident in the class setting from day one.
Doctors
Timothy Brusseau and Heather Erwin, coauthors for the previous edition,
have taken the helm as lead authors this time. Improvements to this new
edition include the following:
- Reorganized chapters that provide a clear, comprehensive description of effective secondary physical education
- New
chapters on supporting and advocating for physical education (including
budgeting, fundraising, facilities and equipment, communicating with
stakeholders, professional development, and more) and on developing a
comprehensive school physical activity program (CSPAP)
- Updated chapters on assessment and teaching students with disabilities
- The
Dynamic PE ASAP website, which gives teachers access to examples of
ready-to-use activities and complete lesson plans, as well as the
ability to build their own lesson plans from the provided activities
DPE
will help current and future educators learn how to promote physical
activity throughout the school day and beyond, and they will be able to
rely on a vast array of evidence-based activities and instructional
strategies to shape and deliver quality physical education programs.
The
text is organized into four parts, with part I exploring the factors
involved in designing a quality physical education program. Part II
delves into how to deliver that program—effective instruction, classroom
management, assessment and evaluation, inclusion of students with
disabilities, and more. In part III, readers investigate administrative
issues, including safety and liability, advocacy, and intramurals and
sport clubs. Part IV offers strategies, ideas, and examples for a
variety of activities and units, including introductory activities,
nontraditional activities, and outdoor and adventure activities.
This
latest edition of DPE features a full-color interior for the first time
as well as an improved design. The book provides many features geared
to helping readers get the most out of the content:
- Learning objectives that set the stage for reading the chapter
- Teaching tips from experienced teachers and teacher educators
- Review questions to help students learn and prepare for exams
- Website lists and suggested readings to guide students toward additional helpful content
- A glossary to help students learn the language of the profession
The
content is designed to help students prepare for the edTPA, which is
required in 18 states for PETE graduates before they can receive their
teaching license.
DPE
continues to be one of the most widely used and influential secondary
physical education texts in the field. It helps readers implement
current best practices and equips students with the information they
need to create engaging and meaningful PE programs.
