Abstract

This article addresses a key theory-practice gap in physical education teacher education (PETE) programs that can lead to the inadequate preparation of teachers for the realities they will face in schools. To improve the relevance of traditional PETE programs, the essential elements of implementing practice-based teacher education pedagogies are presented. The article provides readers with pedagogies that focus on the authentic practices in teacher education designed to train preservice teachers to learn from their teaching, as well as to understand the nuances of teaching in varied contexts.
