Over the last thirty years a number of writers in the United Kingdom, as well as the United States, have identified particular teaching styles and related them to philosophies of teaching or to specific learning outcomes (Bennett 1978). Emerging from this work and that of other writers specifically in Physical Education are two important findings (Kane 1974)
In gymnastics perhaps the teacher's approach was more formal and you were expected to do exactly as that teacher instructed. The debate centers around the notion of "teaching styles" and this brief paper sets out firstly to clarify some of the confusion that exists regarding the term itself and secondly, shows how one model of teaching styles is an effective and creative way of teaching physical education today (Mosston & Ashworth 1986)
His ideas on the interactions between teacher and student have been developed since his initial publication and have provided a framework for teaching physical education in different contexts all over the world. So influential has the framework been that it has been described as "the most significant advance in the theory of physical education pedagogy in recent history" (Nixon & Locke 1227)
The pre-impact set is concerned with decisions made before teaching; at preparation phase and involves subject matter, learning objectives, organization and presentation. The impact set includes decisions relating to performance and execution while the post-impact set includes evaluation of performance and feedback from learner to teacher (Tinana 2003)
Computers will never replace the classroom teacher, but instead offer them many time-saving advantages that will allow them to make the most efficient use of their time and resources. Teacher quality was the factor that has been found to most have a positive influence on student learning (Darling-Hammond and Berry,1998)
Improving professional development is a key issue in using technology to improve learning in the classroom. A lack of knowledge of technology is a key reason for the lack of its effective use in the classroom (Fatemi, 1999)
There must be a plan for regular review and revision of the plan. There have been many studies that have attempted to assess the effectiveness of technology in the classroom for raising standards of student achievement (Glennan & Melmed, 1996; Hawkins, Panush, & Spielvogel, 1996; Newman, 1990; and Henriquez & Riconscente, 1998 among others)
This simulation is the product of technology allowing for the actual pictures to be used from inside the uterus. Instructional topics remain traditional, but the delivery is nontraditional and allows the student to move at his/her own pace (Gold, 1991)
Many know how to use a computer, but lack the depth of knowledge that will enable them to use it in its most effective manner. When it comes to gaining that knowledge, most teachers report that they lack the time, access, and support necessary to accomplish this task (Guhlin, 1996)
However, they are often not as effective as individual incentives. Individual incentives are not the answer either, as they may encourage competition and unfair distribution of knowledge and resources (Lockwood, 1999)
Computers are being used as an aid in Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance. However, the effects of this usage has not been fully studied to date (McLean, 1996)

This technology provides students with an alternative to the traditional classroom setting and frees the instructor from routine tasks that can be just as easily performed by the computer. This application can be used to give physical education students the reasoning behind certain activities (Mohnsen, 1995)
2. The movement towards standards-based education has necessitated the creation of valid and reliable assessments that teachers can use to measure student progress toward achievement of the standards (Dyson, Placek, Graber, Fisette, Rink, Zhu, Avery, Franke, Fox, Raynes and Park, 2011)
The debate entails that peer assessment is an important curriculum tool to empower students, while the opposite side holds that peer assessment carries too many risks, such as unreliability. One of the problems in the non-peer assessed Physical Education class is the lack of substantive feedback (Johnson 34)
Center for Disease Control also notes that strength training can decrease the severity of symptoms from ailments like arthritis, diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity, back pain and depression (CDC, 2013). Flexibility refers to the "total range of motion in a joint or group of joints" (Kravitz & Heyward, 2013)
At the beginning of the twentieth century, these labors were closely linked to larger social and political reservations of industrialization, immigration, and urbanization. Organized play maneuvered the free play and independence connected with children, and it was proposed to supersede the cultural customs of immigrants and the working classes to get ready them for full incorporation into twentieth-century American democratic standards (Butler, 2003)
In the beginning, an average of fifteen children came to the sand garden an average of three days per week. The administrators took the occasion to encourage pleasing moral behavior throughout play (Dickason, 2004)
The developmental importance persists in the early 21st century. Until lately, preschools were comparatively unaltered by modern high venture testing and persisted to focus on play as a principal vehicle for knowledge and development (Frost, n
Exercise also improves self-confidence and self-esteem, attenuates cardiovascular and neurohumoral responses to mental stress, and reduces some type A behaviors." (Balady et al
