4. True (A) or False (B) It is important as educators to implement a healthy lifestyle and be role models for our students.
5. What percentage of children are overweight in today’s society? 25 17 12 65

4. Issues and problems Obesity
Decrease in physical education instructional time
Physical education and health standards
Accurate health information

5. Issues and problems Decrease in Physical Education Instructional Time
Obesity
Schools are refocusing their priorities on meeting standards in content areas and increasing scores on state and national tests
Fewer schools are requiring physical education
Physical education courses are being replaced in order to increase academic achievement
Children need a minimum of 60 minutes of physical activity a day
Physical inactivity is a direct cause of obesity
17% of American children are overweight

6. Issues and problems Physical Education and Health Standards
Accurate Health Information
Physical Education and Health Standards
The internet is not always the best resource for health information
Our children need to be educated about their health and taught how to identify accurate and misleading health information
Physical education standards have evolved over the years
The current standards are not being implemented

7. Technology integration strategies

9. You can do it

10. Tech-pack needs and challenges

11. We are responsible
Not enough emphasis is being placed on physical education and health in our society
In order to make up for this deficit, teachers of all content areas need to encourage physical activity and promote healthy living
We need to educate ourselves in order to educate our students
Make healthy choices, practice healthy living, and be a role model

12. Physical education & health education content knowledge
Only teachers in the physical education and health education teachers are extremely knowledgeable in content standards for this area, compared to teachers in other content areas who are not.
A challenge for all teachers in the area of physical and health teachers is to become more aware of the content standards in relevance to today’s young people.
It is to the advantage of all educators to learn more about physical fitness and healthy behavior.

13. Strategies for improving tech-pack in physical education and health education
Teachers should ask themselves three questions to help them move to their most optimized zone (the intersection of all three components)
Do I have the physical education and health education content knowledge I need to assist my students in meeting the standards within my classroom?
Do I have the pedagogical knowledge needed to teach the physical education and health content within my classroom?
Do I have the technological knowledge needed to teach the physical education and health content within my classroom?
