Synopsis

To  understand how the discourse of physical education  is  shaped  by
contemporary cultural practices, a review of critical and post  modern
literature is essential and this will form a significant part  of  the
unit.  The  construction of conventional practice  will  be  critiqued
drawing  on  the work of those who advocate the case for  teachers  as
extended professionals underpinned by the tenets of action research.
