The Physical Educator.com: Rethinking What Can Be Done in Physical Education
The Skillbook
Joey Feith and Mike Cicchillitti
November 2, 2014

I recommend this blog (and selected other resources) when physical education teachers--or university students who are studying to become physical education teachers--question my suggestion that they check out social media for ideas to help them become better PE educators.

In this post Joey Feith shares what his goals have been for "phase one" of this blog... and what he would like to see happen in "phase two." He wants to see a resource (using Google Sheets) developed by PE educators. This resource will become a "one-stop-shop for all skill content knowledge." Read more about his idea in the post... and consider volunteering to help if you are a PE teacher.
