A second apprenticeship of observation
This study examined the perceived influence of peer feedback on pre-service teachers’ (PSTs’) development as teachers. Research has noted the potential benefits of peer feedback, yet little is known about its perceived influence on the development of PSTs in Australian physical education teacher education programmes. Occupational socialisation theory guided the research, which employed a qualitative methodology consisting of an online survey with…
Pre-Service Teacher perceptions of Professional Experience in Australia
Over the past decade in Australia, there has been increasing challenge around Pre-Service Teachers (PSTs) being exposed to quality learning experiences during Professional Experience (PE). The recognition of challenges relevant to PE has been reported globally through international and national education bodies, and the Australian Government, but the voice of PSTs has been mostly absent in these reports. The aim of this study was to search the Au…
Examining attributes of preservice teachers’ vulnerability
In this mixed methods study, the attributes of vulnerability experienced by pre-service teachers (PSTs) enrolled in professional experience placement units were examined. The study’s theoretical framing involved a context-conscious understanding of PSTs’ applied pedagogical content knowledge, which underpinned the identification of key attributes of their vulnerability. Participating PSTs’ vulnerability during their professional experiences was i…
What motivates adults to participate in Australian Masters sport
Insights into longevity and the professional lifespan of early and mid-to-late career teachers
This article reports on the findings of research that investigated the personal, organisational, and socio-political factors that affect early and mid-to-late career teachers' well-being in Australian schools. Framed through the lens of the Job Demands-Resources Model, the study focused on both positive and negative indicators of teacher well-being. Informed by a qualitative research methodology, the study draws upon data from in-depth semi-struc…
Academics’ perspectives on a student engagement and retention program
Within the contemporary higher education landscape, maintaining student engagement and retention has become of critical concern to universities. Universities have mostly responded to this concern by implementing institutional engagement and retention initiatives by professional university staff. Thus far, however, the role that teaching academics can play in student engagement and retention programs has been largely unexplored within institutiona…
Supporting engagement and retention of online and blended-learning students
A systematic review of figurational sociology within physical education research
Looking forwards and backwards
This study examined how physical education (PE) teachers in one Australian state approached and implemented their practice following the COVID-19 pandemic. Semi-structured interviews were undertaken with 14 primary and high school PE specialist teachers who participated in our previous COVID-19-focused studies to understand the changes that occurred in their practice over time. Analysing teachers’ experiences as part of the figurations they form …
Becoming and being a masters athlete
Once discouraged or viewed as dangerous, Masters athletes are now seen as exemplars of how people should age. This paper qualitatively examines the sporting pathways, embodied experiences and the moral formation of ageing identities among 'young-old' athletes competing in the 16th Australian Masters Games. Held in regional Tasmania (Australia), the Games attracted over 5000 participants competing across 47 sports over an 8-day period. Contributin…
Using Interactive Online Pedagogical Approaches to Promote Student Engagement
The COVID-19 outbreak in late 2019 required a complete shift to online learning across all educational institutions, including universities. The rapid transition to online learning globally meant that many educators were suddenly tasked with adapting their classroom-based pedagogy to the online space. While this was undoubtedly challenging for teachers and students, it also opened up possibilities for reimagining the delivery of content, along wi…
Pre-service teacher perceptions of teaching health education online
Purpose The forced shift to online teaching delivery during COVID-19 suppression measures in 2020 was a complex challenge for Australian teachers. Teachers were given very little time to prepare online content and very little professional development to teach online. Their experiences prompted discussion about the abilities of pre-service teachers (PST) to adapt content to online delivery if another pandemic occurred while they were teaching in t…
The curriculum took a back seat to huff and puff
This study examined secondary (high) school teachers' experiences of online delivery of health and physical education (HPE) during Covid-19 suppression measures in one Australian state in 2020. Research has noted the use of blended learning and flipped classrooms in HPE, yet little is known about the delivery of fully online school HPE. Semi-structured interviews occurred with eight high school HPE specialist teachers, providing qualitative data …
Taking a Stand for Office-Based Workers' Mental Health
There is evidence that movement-based microbreaks can improve the cardiovascular health of desk-based employees, but their effect on mood states is yet to be investigated. As daily work tasks can potentially result in the loss of physical and psychological resources, the objective of this study was to measure the effect of movement microbreaks during formal work time on mood states. In a randomised-controlled pilot study with repeated measures (b…
How Did Parents View the Impact of the Curriculum-Based HealthLit4Kids Program Beyond the Classroom
The HealthLit4Kids program aims to build health literacy in a participatory and contextually relevant way. Whole-of-school and curriculum strategies aim to empower and build capacity to make informed health choices amongst students, teachers, parents, and their local community. The aim of this study was to evaluate the HealthLit4Kids program from the perspective of parents, using a Self-Determination Theory framework. This is one component within…
Is self-reporting workplace activity worthwhile? Validity and reliability of occupational sitting and physical activity questionnaire in desk-based workers
Based on our findings we must caution occupational health and safety professionals about the use of employee self-report data to estimate workplace physical activity. While the survey produced accurate measurements for time spent sitting at work it was more difficult for employees to estimate their workplace physical activity
Youth physical activity and health interventions
This paper directs attention towards the plethora of ongoing health and well-being initiatives that seek to address young people's participation in physical activity and that are underpinned by interests in youth health. Focusing on contemporary developments in the state of Tasmania and throughout Australia, the paper examines these initiatives by highlighting the complexities of health and well-being contexts relating to youth physical activity …
Assessment of the Impact of a Workplace Intervention to Reduce Prolonged Occupational Sitting Time
We aim to provide a better picture of the outcomes associated with implementing a nonpurposeful, physical activity, e-health intervention in a professional workplace. There is a need for health professionals to evaluate physical-activity-based workplace health interventions with a full range of measures. Using a social ecological model as a basis, we identify a range of subjective outcomes from 15 interviews of a cross section of participants. We…
