A nationwide movement shows why so many children exercise so little while an elite few become carried away with sport-specific training. &amp;nbsp;Although this article requires a subscription, the essence is that despite great sports programs, the majority of children don&#39;t get enough exercise (#physicalliteracy) and gross motor skill development. For some reason, we tend to exclude those who don&#39;t have the requisite skills to compete athletically which sends the wrong message. My cousin (Philip Yang of Yamaji Dojo) has a great solution by accepting all those interested. Read what he recently posted to his Facebook Group:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class=&quot;tr_bq&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;215 is my new favorite number... the number of members who joined our club this month.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote class=&quot;tr_bq&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;Jujutsu does not weed out the weak, the less talented or those with a less competitive nature. Because the weak will become strong, the less talented will aquire skills and all will become confident. Jujutsu only weeds out those who stop training.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
This is an old link and was in draft status, but it&#39;s a great looking #infographic.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://mat.usc.edu/u-s-education-versus-the-world-infographic/&quot;&gt;U.S. Education vs. The World&lt;/a&gt; is a very cool infographic from &lt;a href=&quot;http://mat.usc.edu/&quot;&gt;MAT@USC&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; You can imagine this data as a boring series of bar charts in an academic report, but the colorful, visual design here is fantastic.&amp;nbsp; The winding connecting lines can make it a little difficult for the reader to understand the data, but I think it also draws the reader in like a simple puzzle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;We’ve put together this infographic that compares the United States’  education spend and performance versus eleven countries. &amp;nbsp;The U.S. is  the clear leader in total annual spending, but ranks 9th in Science  performance and 10th in Math.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks to Sarah for sending in the link!&lt;br /&gt;

Having attention problems as a young child predicted later difficulties with response inhibition in adolescence. As educators, its really important to establish clear and effective behavior management strategies and classroom/gym rules. Helping young children especially with inattention, disorganization, impulsivity, and hyperactivity at a young age might help offset or reduce lower executive function scores as adolescents. I would love to know what more about intervention studies run and their long-term impact on executive function levels.&lt;blockquote class=&quot;tr_bq&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #403838; line-height: 19.200000762939453px; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;Attention problems (behavior problems including inattention, disorganization, impulsivity, and hyperactivity) are widely thought to reflect deficits in executive functions (EFs). However, it is unclear whether attention problems differentially relate to distinct EFs and how developmental stability and change predict levels of EFs in late adolescence. We investigated, in an unselected sample, how teacher-rated attention problems from ages 7 to 14 years related to three correlated but separable EFs, measured as latent variables at age 17. Attention problems at all ages significantly predicted later levels of response inhibition and working memory updating, and to some extent set shifting; the relation to inhibiting was stronger than the relations to the other EFs or IQ. Growth models indicated that attention problems were quite stable in this age range, and it was the initial levels of problems, rather than their changes across time, that predicted later EFs. These results support the hypothesis that attention problems primarily reflect difficulties with response inhibition.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
They have&amp;nbsp;obviously&amp;nbsp;not read the latest on brain development, physical fitness and academics.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I spent a few days in March at Naperville, IL where PE, recess, and physical activity is paramount to learning for all, but especially for those with difficulty learning math, and reading (part of Common Core). These are the results for the &lt;a href=&quot;http://learningreadinesspe.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Learning Readiness PE&lt;/a&gt; program over 5 years:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Reading rose 1-2 grade levels&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Math scores increased 10-22%&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Don&#39;t forget to get your resources for the benefits of exercise, fitness on academics at:&lt;/div&gt;

One of the main authors of the brain study on youth who exercise is Chuck Hillman and you can find one of his papers here from the Nature journal&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nature.com/nrn/journal/v9/n1/abs/nrn2298.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; &quot;Be smart, exercise your heart: exercise effects on brain and cognition&quot;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I think it is so important for everyone, especially those in education, to work on your own professional development and growth. &amp;nbsp;To really make a difference you need to be a lifelong learner and have a thirst for constant growth. &amp;nbsp; Reading, taking workshops, discussing with peers and mentors and contributing to your&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://sites.google.com/site/rockstarpe/pd&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Personal Learning Network&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;will make all the difference in your potential.&lt;br /&gt;

According to a recent survey by Rutgers University’s Heldrich Center for Workforce Development [&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.heldrich.rutgers.edu/sites/default/files/content/Work_Trends_May_2011.pdf&quot;&gt;pdf&lt;/a&gt;], the above are recent college graduates’ seven biggest regrets looking back on their college years as they consider their current employment situation. While most graduates say they are ultimately happy with their decision to have gone to college, a full 74% regret not doing something differently. The tops: Wishing they had been more careful about selecting a major or choosing a different major, or getting more part-time work or internship experience.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I&#39;ve been toying around with lots of these Classroom Response Systems (CRS) and like the fact that many of them are free and can be accessed with multiple devices (SMS, twitter, web, apps, etc.). I&#39;ve listed a bunch of systems at the end of the post but wanted to share 2 new ones including one still in closed Beta. &amp;nbsp;Although I love the intent of these tools, the majority of the scenarios are unfortunately still modeled in the traditional teacher-centeted class or lecture-based delivery format. From what we know about different learning and teaching styles, surely we can give better examples of student-centered learning, problem-based, project-based, team-based, just something besides the lecture.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;a href=&quot;https://gosoapbox.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;GoSoapBox&lt;/a&gt; is another classroom response system that has an interesting tag-line &quot;Hear what your students are thinking!&quot; Now if I could really hear what they thought, that would be pretty scarey because I know what I think while I&#39;m in a class. This system is anonymous between students but the interactions can be tracked by the teacher.&lt;/div&gt;

County Institute For PE, Health, Driver Ed.held in Naperville, IL back in
 March 2012. With a special message for SUNY Cortland PE 
teacher-candidates and student-teachers. &lt;a class=&quot;yt-uix-redirect-link&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; href=&quot;http://schools.naperville203.org/north/academicdepartments/DuPageCountyInstituteForPEHealthDriverEd.asp&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;http://schools.naperville203.org/north/academicdepartments/DuPageCountyInstituteForPEHealthDriverEd.asp&quot;&gt;http://schools.naperville203.org/north/academicdepartments/DuPageCountyInstit...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;274&quot; src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/embed/videoseries?list=PL647D7BF989330BBB&amp;amp;hl=en_US&quot; width=&quot;480&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Note:&amp;nbsp;Phil Lawler was the crusader who helped to refocus physical education to a wellness-based model that encourages fitness for a lifetime.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ken Reed&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Game Changer captures the passion of this legend in the field of physical education who believed that every child—regardless of athletic ability—should be given a chance to find an activity he or she can embrace and enjoy for a lifetime.&lt;br /&gt;
Ken Reed&#39;s&amp;nbsp;book Game Changer (based on Phil Lawler&#39;s mission) is available &lt;a class=&quot;yt-uix-redirect-link&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Game-Changer-Improving-Education-ebook/dp/B0076QCB7Q&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Game-Changer-Improving-Education-ebook/dp/B0076QCB7Q&quot;&gt;http://www.amazon.com/Game-Changer-Improving-Education-ebook/dp/B0076QCB7Q&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dr. Ernie Medina&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Dr.
 Medina practice and business centers around using technology to improve
 health including using exergames and mobile applications - &lt;a class=&quot;yt-uix-redirect-link&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; href=&quot;http://www.medplaytech.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;http://www.medplaytech.com/&quot;&gt;http://www.medplaytech.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 
this interview he showed his Mobile Adventure Walk app - &lt;a class=&quot;yt-uix-redirect-link&quot; dir=&quot;ltr&quot; href=&quot;http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mobile-adventure-walks/id464283791?mt=8&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mobile-adventure-walks/id464283791?mt=8&quot;&gt;http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mobile-adventure-walks/id464283791?mt=8&lt;/a&gt;
 and discussed how important it is to be unique as well as practical in 
addressing the needs of his patients. Certainly a message we can all 
relate to.&lt;br /&gt;

When the day came when I had to do my Lab D for Professor&lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt; Yang emotions were running through my body. It seemed to be so much work, however when you have something you love to do you don&#39;t mind running around like a chicken with your head cut off. While keeping your cool of course.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;fullpost&quot;&gt;Unfortunately Lab D was not the only thing on my mind&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;nbsp; at the time, I had recently got a summer job in Cortland for the summer so it felt like I was working two jobs at once! Talk about exhilarating. I think this will help me in the long run however. If I could learn now how to handle two jobs then I think I&#39;ll be better off in the future. When I do get out into the teaching world I wont be able to just teach. I feel like I need another job, such as coaching or working at a fitness club or even a camp. Something to make myself more available to the people in my community. I feel it is very important to have outside resources readily available. It is not only us that should be the P&quot;E Rockstar&quot; for life but everybody. If we can get the idea of being healthy is fun into peoples minds, then we&#39;ve done our job.&lt;br /&gt;

If we could get kids moving more times a day at the heart rate that would qualify as a good workout then we are going to have healthier kids. There are ways to make every child want to be physically active, whether that means &quot;tricking&quot; him into doing so or not. Professor Yang is a huge endorser of the exergaming workouts, how innovative is that! Talking about reaching out to the people who don&#39;t usually like Physical Education! Reaching out to these students is our duty, we might not be able to force them to play, but the ability to let them have fun is always there!&lt;br /&gt;
I encourage you to visit my personal blog. the site is www.pemrus.blogspot.com. I will be doing my 256 field experience this summer and I am very excited to keep everybody updated on what I am doing and how it is panning out. Who could forget about raquette lake this summer as well. Both of these experiences should be one to remember for a long time.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;My last teaching experience for Basics of Effective Instruction in Physical Education course has come to a close. The&amp;nbsp;experience,&amp;nbsp;however challenging it was for me, revealed my potential. It was a great learning&amp;nbsp;opportunity. As I reflect back, there were both positive and&amp;nbsp;negative&amp;nbsp;outcomes. I know that I have come a long way from that four-minute skill-teaching lab at the beginning of the semester and yet I there are still mountains in the distance. I can see that I have developed a certain confidence talking in front of a group that I never had. However, I still need to be careful with my words, as at times I&#39;m less than precise with my words.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I presented them with a Challenge By Choice in which they would link up with classmates during the scavenger hunt. This forced every last person to work together and cooperation with each other. I would do something similar to this again, however I might use a Hula Hoop instead and have only two or three people in a group. Either way, the concept lends itself to a true cooperative learning&amp;nbsp;experience. Additionally, I started the class with two different lead in activities. &amp;nbsp;I felt that both activities were necessary to begin to establish the working climate between students. They quickly played a game of Blog Tag and then I had groups work their way through three stations to introduce the topic of the scavenger hunt (the harmful effects of cigarette smoking). The class did the final station together. FYI, I had planned to do all the station in groups but I rotated the groups incorrectly. Nonetheless, I was glad that I goofed up because I think that the last station activities created a fun and spontaneous atmosphere.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;However, there were a few near fatal flaws in my teaching. First, I failed to provide students will emergency contact information. Since one group was on their one during half the class, I should have given contact numbers if there were any problems. Second, I planned to do the first pinpoint location on the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mobileadventurewalks.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Mobile Adventure Walks App&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;together.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In addition, at that time I knew that had to give them cues on how best to work the app. I should have address how to determine their next destination. This mistake did cause some hiccups. Also, I never told the students who were the acting touring guides to read the question aloud as they reached each location. Futhermore, I should have better explained what they were looking for and what they were to do at each location (take an index card and leave the item in the container). All of those glitches could have been avoid had I remember to complete the first location together.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Another significant problem of my lesson was that I gave them too many tasks to complete while the hunt was in progress. I asked them upload pictures to Twitter, complete a worksheet, and create a jingle. Looking back I probably should have left the assignment to the end of class as a take home assignment. They had too many things in their hands.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;On the other hand, many qualities about my lesson were strong. My lesson was structured to educate the participants, learning through the physical, as my professor says. It was not just a simple scavenger hunt but rather a means to have student begin to understand their own health as it relates to personal decisions and smoking cigarettes. It is this concept that inspired me. If you don’t already know, I currently work in the healthcare field. The reason for my transition into Physical Education is largely due all that I have witness in my career. Physical Education can’t just be about promoting athletes and good PACER scores, but must be about teaching children the ways in which to develop and maintain their own personal health. This is vital; so that future generations will not continue to experience the same health aliments that are facing our nation now.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Congratulations to two of Cortland PE students and Rockstar PE Alum Tracy McClure and Nate Davis for&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www2.cortland.edu/bulletin/ion-detail.dot?id=990ec33f-b967-4f67-acb3-b5773f98bb16&amp;amp;backUrl=/bulletin/issues/bulletin-11-12/bulletin-17-may-8-2012.dot&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;being&amp;nbsp;elected to membership in Alpha Sigma Lambda&lt;/a&gt;, an international honor society recognizing the academic achievements of non-traditional students.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Alpha Sigma Lambda national standards reserve membership for students who are in the top 10 percent of all non-traditional students at the College. Members must have completed 24 credits hours of work at SUNY Cortland with a grade point average of 3.2 or higher. For the inductees to be in the top 10 percent of students at SUNY Cortland this year, they needed to have a GPA of 3.65 or greater. &amp;nbsp;The GPA range for this group of students inducted was 3.65 to 4.22.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

was the first day for Lab D! It was my time to teach and set the bar for the
rest of the class since I was the first to go! My focus for the class was Power
Yoga! This lab took a lot of time and preparation to get ready for considering
I had to teach for 35 minutes, which is much longer then ever have before. Also
I had to try and teach in the style of “practice”. On top of the task of
teaching yoga, I also had a fitness/wellness focus of “why PE?” I had to

started off my lesson with an instant activity that would teach students about
why PE is important! The activity was just a simple game of “speed walking” tag
but the taggers had to carry heavy backpacks and pass it off when they tagged
the next person. I was hoping with this activity the students would realize
that when you have to carry extra weight being active is harder and not as fun
because of it. So after they finished the short activity I explained that 31%
of NYS students are overweight or obese so PE is important to teach students to
live an active lifestyle instead of a sedentary one. Not only does PE give
everyone a time in their day to be active but also can teach students
activities they can enjoy in their own time.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I had everyone get a partner and find a station where there was yoga poses.
There were a total of six stations and two people at each station. All the
students were at a station for about 2 to 3 minutes and had to practice the
pose and they could challenge themselves or modify the pose if they needed to.
At this point in the lesson I walked around and gave feedback and helped them
figure out the proper position. Also at one station I had my iPad set up for
the students to record themselves while they were at the station. I would then
use this as my assessment later on. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

after everyone had been at each station I brought everyone back together as a
group to perform a &lt;a href=&quot;http://youtu.be/DGYkojnaL-0&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;full routine&lt;/a&gt;. They followed a video that had specific directions
of poses to perform including poses that they worked on in the stations. The
video they followed I created myself, so during this time I walked around and
gave feedback and corrections. The routine was 11 minutes long and was designed
to get them working up a sweat! Then I closed my lesson by asking them to name
a few poses and the muscles that were important to perform the position. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt;&quot;&gt;Overall
I was very happy with how my lesson went! I feel that I have really grown since
my very first day! During the first lab I was so nervous, my voice wasn’t very
loud or confident. Then for this lab I felt confident in what I was teaching
because of the practice and preparation I had done and I was excited to teach
my lesson! This lab took a lot of work but I feel like it was worth it because
everyone seemed to enjoy it! With this lesson I wanted the students to work up
a sweat and have fun with it and I think by the end of the lesson I accomplished
this! One thing I feel I did well was giving specific feedback. During the
station I tried to make my way around to each group helping them on certain
little things to make their poses better. I also tired to do this during the
full routine! After reviewing the my lesson I think I gave each student
specific feedback at least twice during the whole lesson!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

 While I was teaching Professor Yang
asked a few students to act out to see how I would handle it. At first 
Eric
said “Yoga is for girls!” so I addressed him by telling him to modify 
the
position in any “manly” way he would like. That seemed to help that 
problem but
then Eric and his partner Max were kept getting off task. At first I 
just would
pay close attention to them and challenge them so they weren’t getting 
bored,
but that didn’t seem to work. So Professor Yang suggested that I would 
separate
them. Then when I had the class switch stations I tried to not make it 
obvious
but split them up, so I had Emily join Max and then Eric was a partner 
with
Devon. This was definitely a challenge to deal with because they were 
very
persistent in getting off task, but it taught me a lesson for sure! 
Sometimes
addressing students isn’t enough so you just have to break them up. Also
 this
taught me that when you have an activity that involves groups or 
partners it
may be best to break up the students yourself so you can make sure 
certain
people are not working together if it could become a disturbance. Also 
because I
had my iPad set up at one station it was almost like my extra set of 
eyes. After
my lesson I reviewed the videos and it showed me how much I didn’t 
notice because
I could in the background some students getting off task that I never 
noticed.
I think from this if I were to redo my lesson I might keep the station 
time
shorter and maybe have the challenges a little harder so they didn’t get
 bored. One last thing I learned from this lab had to do with my visual 
aids! I was making so many posters for each station that I ended up 
mixing up one of the instructions on a poster. So the directions didn&#39;t 
match the pose! Thank goodness it was only on one poster, but next time I
 will make sure to triple check my visual aids!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

D was a great experience! I was really happy with the result of my last
teaching experience for EDU 255! It really gets me excited to get out there and
teach for real!!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
