PED 212 WEEK 4 DISCUSSION 2
Discussion 2
Critical Thinking |
In this discussion forum, you will examine your critical
thinking, inquiring, and communication skills within the subject of physical
education.
Questioning compels thinking and, as thinkers, you assess what
you read and incorporate knowledge with your prior understanding of the
subject. As part of this discussion, you will read about concepts surrounding
physical education and evaluate your previous knowledge on this subject. Then,
you will create your own question for your classmates to answer.
Complete each of the following sections:

Want to Know” section of the following chart. Then read the chapters and

Section 2: Creating
Your Own Discussion Question/Prompt
For your initial post, you will create your own discussion
prompt based on your own research and review of the chapter reading for this
week. Your questions need to originate from one of the concepts
introduced in Chapter 8.
After reading, use your completed chart and chapter reading to
formulate a discussion prompt. Your discussion prompt should include all of the
following:
a. An opening question or statement to introduce
the topic:
o
Examples: What are
some difficulties that an obese child might have during a PE lesson? OR List
several difficulties that an obese child might encounter during a PE lesson.
b. A question or statement that requires further
research or thinking on the subject:
o
Examples: What are
some adaptations that a teacher can make to ensure that an obese child is able
to complete a physical activity? OR Explain how a teacher can adapt a physical
education lesson to accommodate an obese child.
c. A question or statement that requires the
reader to apply it to their own situation, current or future profession:
o
Example: What are some
outside resources or websites that you would use to offer support to an obese
child and their family? OR Evaluate a website that you would use to support an
obese child and their family. Explain how you would use this resource.
Additional Tips
·
Use words such
as: compare, contrast, discuss, evaluate, explain, how, why, or why
not.
·
Your prompt should be
open-ended (i.e., it cannot be answered with just a "yes" or
"no" statement, a one-word answer, or a simple definition).
·
Your prompt can
require the reader to do further research on the subject, such as researching a
website or outside source.
Guided Response: Review and critically answer two of your
classmates’ questions. Include any resources that you found to support your
answer. You can also include questions in your response that will further the
discussion on the topic.
