What disciplines combine to create the foundation for physical education? - CORRECT ANSWERS
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? - CORRECT ANSWERS study of human movement
What is the relationship between kinesiology and biomechanics? - CORRECT ANSWERS
Kinesiology 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? - CORRECT
ANSWERS An 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? - CORRECT ANSWERS
Recent 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? - CORRECT
ANSWERS It 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

What are the body systems and how do they interact? - CORRECT ANSWERS
Circulatory/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? - CORRECT ANSWERS
How does the law impact teaching physical education? - CORRECT ANSWERS
What are the current trends in teaching physical education? - CORRECT ANSWERS
Teaching to promote life-long fitness and health
What are the important theories in fitness and physical education? - CORRECT ANSWERS
What are the different teaching methods physical education teachers can use? - CORRECT ANSWERS
