| dc.description.abstract | As a secondary teacher in the state of Oregon, the writer had an opportunity to observe various secondary public school physical education programs in operation. This observation cover a period of five years, and during this period a number of variations in the physical education programs of the secondary schools were observed. Such variances posed the problem as to the adequacy and type of curricular offerings established to meet the intent of the existing laws governing the teaching of health and physical education in Oregon. From the standpoint of supervision, the State Department of Education was interested in knowing the status of curricular offerings provided to meet the growth and development needs of high school students. The Oregon Association for Health, Physical Education and Recreation was vitally concerned with the quality of instruction in this field. For this reason, such factual information as might be provided by this study was not important. Such factual information placed in the hands of interested groups can be used for making intelligent curriculum and program decisions. This study had a potential of national interest because of its relation to a study conducted by a national committee under the chairmanship of K.W. Bookwalter, Professor of Physical Education, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana. This committee was making a national study of secondary school physical education programs. | en_US |
