2.  Motivation is a big part of physical education  Motivation can lead to participation  Participation is the ultimate goal  Participation=healthier students

4.  The purpose of the study was to see the motivational differences of a student participating in a health related fitness (HRF) activity and soccer.

5.  Students were more motivated during the health related fitness activity than in soccer  Some students felt they couldn’t master skills in soccer causing motivation to drop  HRF skills were easy to master therefore adding to their level of self-efficacy  Students expected more positive results from HRF than from soccer

6.  It is important to help students master skills which can lead to increase in motivation to keep trying  Allowing your students to have a high sense of self-efficacy is a very important aspect of participation in class

8.  This article was written to inform about the “new age” of Phys. Ed. and how this can be used to motivate students

9.  New focus- lifelong sports which are often more fun, and more beneficial to health  Fun and unique activities are more likely to engage a student in physical activity  More fun and more beneficial leads to greater motivation  May also be incorporated as an adult

10.  Wii  Aerobics  Inline skating  Yoga  On Screen Exercises (p90x, zumba, Tae Bo)

11.  Incorporating new fun and exciting activities in class can lead to higher motivation in students to participate. This higher participation will ultimately lead to healthier students.

12.  Outside-school physical activity participation and motivation in physical education

13.  The purpose of this study was to determine whether participating in an outside-school physical activity will lead to an increase in motivation to participate in physical education

14.  The students were surveyed to see who partakes in an outside school physical activity  Students were then put in 2 groups depending on outside activity  The student’s involvement and participation in class was recorded each day for 6 weeks

15.  Showed that students who participated in outside-school physical activity had a much higher motivation to participate in physical education class

16.  As a Phys. Ed. teacher I can push for students to participate in outside-school physical activities hoping to increase in class participation  Heading intramural programs is a great way for students to get involved  Less competitive  Make friends  Can boost motivation factor in class

17. Motivation in physical education classes A self-determination theory perspective

18.  Determine what role the self determination theory plays in a students motivation to participate in physical education class where the teacher uses an interpersonal teaching style

19.  Idea that a human’s motivation and personality is based on their own beliefs without any outside interference or influence  In terms of P.E. it would apply to motivation to participate due to valuing the activity as a means of health

20.  Self-Determination- internal motivation  Interpersonal Teaching- external motivation (from teacher)  Having the 2 work together can create a positive outcome

21.  The motivation factors for both teachers and students were similar  Both said motivation was for health purposes and class success  Students reported that when the teacher sets goals for class and communicates well with students their desire to participate is higher.

22.  Having the idea that students can be motivated by good instruction sets forth the idea that to have motivated students the teacher needs to be motivated in their teaching.  Using an interpersonal teaching style is a good way to be involved with students

23.  Similar to experiment done in article 1  I marked when a student was not participating in an activity  It was either under game column or HRF column  Goal: See if results are different in elementary as opposed to middle school

25.  Elementary students are completely different than middle or high school students  Elementary students do not understand the importance of exercise  They view physical education as “gym class” where you just play games  Reason they do HRF activities is because the teacher said to do so

26.  Younger students need to understand the importance of physical activity  As a physical education teacher I need to not let students get away with not participating  If a student only plays games they will develop a negative view on running and exercising  It is necessary to stress importance of exercising while not turning it into a negative thing  Once exercise is viewed as good it will increase motivation to participate in my class

27.  In closing I realize that motivation is the biggest part of getting a student to participate in P.E. class.  Motivating your students can come from the activity they are doing, internal factors, outside factors, or even teaching style. The important part for me as a physical education teacher is to keep my students motivated, participating, and ultimately healthy.
