The Decline and Elimination of PETE: Implications for Doctoral Education
Blankenship, Bonnie Tjeerdsma; Templin, Thomas J.
Quest, v68 n4 p383-393 2016
In this article, we will explore the current landscape of teacher education programs in general, and specifically, physical education teacher education (PETE) from the national level down to the local level. Furthermore, we will explore the impact that the elimination of undergraduate PETE programs can have on PETE doctoral programs, including the teaching, research, and engagement of their faculty. We present ideas for preparing doctoral students for their future higher education roles that may or may not include the preparation of future physical educators.
