Lorenz, Kent A.; van der Mars, Hans; McMullen, Jaimie; Norris, Jason; Jahn, Julie – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2023
Partial Comprehensive School Physical Activity Programming (CSPAP) has been studied extensively in recent years. However, there is little evidence on the efficacy and feasibility of such interventions in high school settings. Physical education teacher education (PETE) programs have been slow in preparing future physical educators for CSPAP…
