Blogger of the Month
Playing with Research in Health and Physical Education is a podcast from Risto Marttinen, Sara Flory and Dillon Landi which focuses on trying to make research more open and accessible to all stakeholders involved in PE and Health. The show notes of each podcast shares the research, they then invite the resreacher on the show to talk about their research and sometimes includes a follow podcast about the theory that underpins the research. A perfect example of this was Dr Paul Wright’s work with colleagues on developing a Tool for Assessing Responsibility-based Education. The podcast interview when into detail about the tool and how teacher might be able to use it and then there was a follow up interview about the theory that underpins Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility as a model within Physical Education. Theory and practice are two languages about the same thing. This podcast goes a good way in trying to translate the language of theory into practice and I wholeheartedly recommend other PE Teachers who are interested in theory informed practice to check it out.
