Developing Personal, Social and Moral Education through Physical Education: A Practical Guide for Teachers

Personal, Social and Moral Development through Physical Education and sport is a relatively under-researched area. Most of teaching concentrates on the performance aspect of Physical Education, while the National Curriculum requires teachers to address a number of 'non-physical' outcomes, such as learning rules, teamwork, cooperation and competition. Tony Laker's practical book provides classroom practitioners and teacher-training students with suggestions for activities and strategies to help them teach and assess these 'non-physical' aspects of Physical Education. He uses diagrams, photos and bulleted lists to make this a concise and accessible read.

Anthony Laker is the Degree Director of Physical Education in the Department of Exercise and Sport Science at East Carolina University.
