By (author): Jennifer M. Krause Seth E. Jenny Tess Armstrong
A wide variety of technology is available to physical educators, health teachers, and coachesbut technology is only helpful if people know how to use it effectively.
This text will help health and physical education teachers and coaches improve their abilities by learning to effectively use technology in the areas of instruction, assessment, management, communication, professional development, and advocacy. The effective use of technology as outlined in this book can improve student and athlete performance and assessment and motivate active and healthy lifestyles among students.
An important distinction with this book is that it goes beyond simply discussing the technology toolsit helps readers understand how to use technology to improve instruction. Practical examples of how to use various technological tools are included for different settings and a variety of age groups (child to adult). Readers will learn about the effective use of technology in physical education, health education, and coaching.
Technology for Physical Educators, Health Educators, and Coaches is a practical, hands-on text that offers a number of useful tools:
The text is organized into six parts. Part I focuses on how technology can assist in meeting specific goals, objectives, and national standards within physical education, health education, and sport coaching. Part II covers technology for class and team management as well as communication technology, while part III explores how to leverage technology to facilitate teaching and learning, including within a traditional classroom, online, and with special populations. The authors address how to use technology for assessment in part IV, and part V delves into how technology can benefit professional development and advocacy. In part VI, the authors detail the all-important legal and financial aspects of technology. See more
