Rethinking the Boundaries: Response
Oslin, Judy; Collier, Connie
Quest, v64 n2 p87-91 2012
In his Keynote address, Dr. Kretchmar suggests that children who demonstrate an inability or unwillingness to play may have a "play disability," and thus offers interventions for remediation. In response, Oslin and Collier argue that due to cultural influences, it is more likely that physical educators are play disabled. Oslin and Collier share Kretchmar's sentiment that playing and valuing play is essential to becoming physically educated and living a fulfilling life. Recommendations are offered as a means of infusing play into PETE and physical education curriculums.
