  • Revisiting the Inclusion Illusion

    Justin A Haegele•ARTICLE•Quest•2026

    This lecture’s focus was on issues related to ways in which the field of physical education, and the people operating within it, (un)intentionally marginalize disabled people implicitly, while stating otherwise explicitly, largely in the name of inclusion. The author introduced and spotlighted critical issues that challenge some commonly accepted beliefs and practices about physical education for disabled people, to (hopefully) foster new thought…

  • Undergraduate students’ experiences with educational podcasts to learn about inclusive and integrated physical education

    Open Access•Scott McNamara, Justin A Haegele•ARTICLE•European Physical Education Review•2020•Cited by: 1•References: 7

    Currently, there is a dearth of research that has examined how podcasts influence kinesiology students’ learning experience. More specifically, research is needed to better understand how different types of podcasts (e.g. open-access podcasts) influence students’ perceptions toward topics that are complex and contextual. One such complex topic that has particular meaning to the fields of physical education and adapted physical education is inclus…
