Lore W. E. Vleugels; Toon Dehandschutter; Peter Iserbyt – International Journal of Kinesiology in Higher Education, 2025
Selecting and sequencing instructional tasks to facilitate student learning (i.e. content development) is an important skill for physical education teachers. Research has shown that teachers often have little content development following an informing task. In addition, depth of specialized content knowledge (SCK) as expressed by the SCK-index is…

Ward, Phillip; Dervent, Fatih; Kim, Insook; Ko, Bomna; Xie, Xiuye; Tsuda, Emi; Santiago, José A.; Iserbyt, Peter; Devrilmez, Erhan – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2023
Purpose: Practice-based teacher education (PBTE) has been proposed as an approach to combat forms of teacher education that create prescriptive understandings of teaching that are disconnected from practice. In physical education, PBTE is becoming more prevalent. Some have argued that many of its elements have been in use for some time, whereas…

Teacher education programs need to prepare future teachers to adapt their teaching for students varying in motor ability, experience, and prior knowledge. The purpose of this case study was to examine (a) preservice teachers (PSTs) adaptations in lesson plans; (b) whether the adaptations were modifications or refinements; and (c) the…

Iserbyt, Peter; Dehandschutter, Toon; Leysen, Hilde; van der Mars, Hans – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2023
Purpose: To investigate (a) if a coaching clinic (CC) impacted student-coaches' behavior and academic learning time during a basketball Sport Education season and (b) if 3v3 game performance improved as a function of the coaching clinic. Method: Preservice teachers (n = 85) were randomly assigned to a CC or a comparison group and taught a…

An De Meester; Julie Galle; Bart Soenens; Leen Haerens – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2024
Background: It is widely recommended for teachers to provide positive feedback to foster the development and maintenance of children's motivation and perseverance. However, not all positive feedback has positive consequences and an important differentiation can be made between positive person-oriented feedback (i.e. 'you are very talented') and…

Iserbyt, P.; Coolkens, R.; Loockx, J.; Vanluyten, K.; Martens, J.; Ward, P. – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2020
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate how teachers' pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) in the form of task adaptations differed as a function of content knowledge. Method: Participants were three elementary school teachers (two females and one male) and their students (n=66). Functional analysis of instructional events (i.e.,…

Peter Iserbyt; Anke Mous; Charlotte Vandenlindenloof; Kian Vanluyten – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2025
Purpose: We investigated the effect of a content knowledge workshop on a teacher's content development in terms of selected task types, task adaptations, and in turn children's task performance during a six-lesson crawl swimming unit in elementary school. Methods: One physical education teacher taught two 6-lesson units of the front crawl before…

Iserbyt, Peter; van der Mars, Hans; Drijvers, Hannelore; Seghers, Jan – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2023
Purpose: Comprehensive School Physical Activity Programs aim to maximize the application of skills learned in physical education (PE) in other settings. We investigated students' generalization of participation in fitness activities from PE to organized fitness programs during lunch recess. Method: Voluntary participation of 153 (74 girls, age…

van Hyfte, Elly; Vercruysse, Sien; Warlop, Griet; Lenoir, Matthieu – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2022
Purpose: To investigate the effect of an obstacle course based physical education program, designed according to contemporary insights on motor learning, on motor competence (MC) of 6- to 7-year-old Flemish children. Method: Pupils from 16 primary schools were randomly allocated to either control (n = 173, 50.3% boys) or intervention group (n =…

Roure, Cédric; Pasco, Denis – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2023
Purpose: The context personalization approach refers to matching educational content with characters, objects, and themes of students' out-of-school interests. Considering the positive effects of individual interest on the regulation of student-incontext experiences, this study used the context personalization approach to match physical education…

De Meester, An; Van Duyse, Femke; Aelterman, Nathalie; De Muynck, Gert-Jan; Haerens, Leen – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2020
Background: Research stemming from Self-Determination Theory (SDT) shows that physical education (PE) teachers who endorse an autonomy-supportive and structuring motivating style positively affect students' motivation, engagement and learning. Choice provision and positive feedback are two concrete strategies that are part of an…

Roure, Cédric; Lentillon-Kaestner, Vanessa – European Physical Education Review, 2022
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between students' individual interest, achievement goals, perceived competence and situational interest, by using a cluster analysis in swimming. Three hundred and eighty-two secondary school students (M[subscript age] = 14.8, SD = 0.9, 52.4% girls, aged 13-17) enrolled in swimming…

Transnational research involves research in one country that benefits that country, and where the findings are compared to the extant studies in the larger field. It also involves the search for common effects and situational influences (i.e., country and culture-specific) toward a particular research topic. In this study we examine the…

Haerens, Leen; Krijgsman, Christa; Mouratidis, Athanasios; Borghouts, Lars; Cardon, Greet; Aelterman, Nathalie – European Physical Education Review, 2019
Students' knowledge about the criteria for an upcoming test is a crucial component of assessment quality. Grounded in self-determination theory, we investigated whether knowledge about the criteria for an upcoming test related to students' situational motivation and experienced anxiety during physical education (PE). We also examined whether these…
