I think we can all agree that naming a blog post after oneself is a little egocentric. But it gets worse. I have just named a classroom model after myself. Oh dear. It is probably a good moment for me to put my ego back in its box and rebrand my classroom.

“I was interested in bringing instant and accurate feedback to my classes. This program does exactly that.” ~ Rick Wank, PE Teacher at Milford High School What was your first experience with Physical Education technology? My first experience with Heart Zones was back in 2015. I saw a presentation at SHAPE Michigan by Dr. Deb Berkey. After seeing the presentation, I spoke with my principal Kevin Mckenna and we were able to come up with the funds to purchase our first set.

Years of COVID-19, social distancing, and virtual learning have all had a profound effect on students, which means educators need to adjust their classes accordingly. The good news is that P.E. can still play a vital role in helping students intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially.

I have been fortunate to be asked to provide several talks during 2023 on various areas of teaching physical education. Although my work is usually within the sphere of 'curriculum and pedagogy', being asked to talk about what the next ten years might hold for physical education teaching enabled me to consider some interesting questions in this presentation.
