PE Praxis 5095 Content and Design
What disciplines combine to create the foundation for physical education? - answer
Human Movement and Physical Fitness (motor and health-related); and is based on the
following disciplines: motor learning, motor development, kinesiology, biomechanics,
exercise physiology, sport psychology, sport sociology, and aesthetics.
What is kinesiology? - answer study of human movement
What is the relationship between kinesiology and biomechanics? - answerKinesiology
and biomechanics work together to help determine what exercises a person should do,
how the workouts should be conducted and how effective the exercise is and if the
exercise is safe.
How does an understanding of kinesiology help a person to teach physical education? -
answerAn understanding of kinesiology can guide teachers in helping their students
decide what workout would be best for each student.
How do movement concepts impact students' ability to learn? - answerRecent finding
have linked movement to both cognitive skill and emotional health and well being.
Children who have higher self-esteem are much more likely to learn better and also
develop better social skills.
What is the overall importance of exercise physiology in relation to physical education? -
answerIt is what happens to the body as it exercises a single time, how these changes
are brought about, what changes in function occur after repeated bouts of exercise and
how these changes come to pass, and finally, what can be done to improve the body's
response to exercise and its adaptation to training.
How does the body react to exercise? - answerAn acute/short term change in the body
due to exercise
Ex.) HR goes up, sweating
What are the components of exercise physiology? - answer
How can an understanding of exercise physiology contribute to lifelong fitness? -
answerUnderstanding exercise physiology is understanding all of the benefits your body
gains from exercise, different methods of exercise, how to create an exercise plan, etc.
What are the different types of exercise a person can engage in? - answerAerobic,
anaerobic, isometric, isotonic, isokinetic
, What are the body systems and how do they interact? -
answerCirculatory/Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Nervous, Digestive, Muscular, and
Skeletal. They all interact to help our body operate and survive.
What roles do the body systems play in an understanding of physical education? -
answer
How does the law impact teaching physical education? - answer
What are the current trends in teaching physical education? - answerTeaching to
promote life-long fitness and health
What are the important theories in fitness and physical education? - answer
What are the different teaching methods physical education teachers can use? -
answerCommand, Practice, Reciprocal, Task, Guided Discovery, Problem Solving, and
Exploration
How are games and activities categorized? - answerInvasion Games, Target Games,
Net and Wall Games, Striking and Fielding Games, Chasing and Fleeing Games,
Fundamental Movement Skill Games, Cooperation Games, Health and Fitness Games
What is the basic idea of a given sport? - answerA competitive activity in which you are
competing against one or multiple participants and enhancing physical abilities
What are some basic rules or tactics of a given sport? - answer
How do liability concerns impact lesson planning? - answer
How do laws affect a teacher of physical education? - answer
What are the effects of substance abuse on a person? - answer
How can particular drugs affect a person? - answer
How do growth and motor development stages affect learning? - answer
What are Bloom's Taxonomy Learning Domains and how do they affect the design of
instruction? - answer
What developmental factors play a role in activity choices in physical education? -
answer
What specifically can prevent a student from being physically developed within their age
group? - answer
