Structures and Ecology: Linear facilitation processes vis-à-vis non-linear developmental processes. Is it possible to have a linearly focussed structure together with a realisation of non-linear development of the learner?

Linearity or the lack thereof suggest a unidimensional process, with temporal (chronological) urgency or not.

Physical Education is not inherently good. Children and young people will not automatically improve their movement, health, academic success or their pro-social behaviours just by participating in the subject.

For many students, physical education is critical to becoming active and developing healthy routines. But how is this possible anymore with the repercussions of the pandemic? 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.

It is a universally acknowledged truth that starting to run, be it to improve your cardiorespiratory fitness, switch up your daily workout regimes, or to just pass the time and get outside, can be incredibly challenging. Whether you’re hitting the road or the treadmill, getting on your feet and putting your running shoes on can be the most difficult part of the run.

Physical education is an important part of the development of the whole person: physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.

Proactive Parenting is the difference between parenting on offense or defense. If you are a sports fan at all, you know that being on defense usually means you are defending your goal, your end zone or your opponent’s basket.
