Flipped Learning in Physical Education Opportunities and Applications

This is the first book to introduce flipped learning in the context of  physical education. It is a timely exploration of pedagogical approaches  that draw on digital technologies that can allow learning online and at  a distance to support important learning time for physical activity.

The  book discusses the role of online and digital technology in education,  and physical education more specifically, and examines the key features  that define flipped learning, its boundaries, and its format. Drawing on  modern learning theories, the book explains why educators and  practitioners may choose to use flipped learning and how the approach  can improve physical activity opportunities. It also considers the  challenges and the guiding principles involved in implementing flipped  learning in different countries, cultures, and contexts.

Full of  practical guidance, and drawing on cutting-edge research, this book is  invaluable reading for all students, researchers, pre-service and  in-service teachers, and coaches working in physical education or youth  sport.
