At the same time, however, social and political change takes time due the fluid, densely packed public policy space surrounding education. Accordingly, we turn to the literature focused on resilience, which recognizes that teachers have the capacity to adapt and better manage the stressors they face in their schools. Self-care and emotional reappraisal strategies, self-efficacy and feelings of personal accomplishment, and administrative and peer support can help teachers become more resilient. These are skills that teachers can learn to better enhance their working conditions and relationships with others in the school environment. Project Developing Resilience and Enhancing Appraisals of Mattering (DREAM) is a professional development intervention for elementary-level, non-core subject teachers (i.e., physical education, art, music) with the goal of enhancing perceived mattering and resilience. Project DREAM is structured around four pillars (i.e., emotional regulation and display training, caring and listening practices, relationship building strategies, and advocacy training) that collectively facilitate cognitive and emotional reappraisal. This reappraisal helps to build emotional intelligence and facilitate enhanced resilience and perceptions of mattering. While linked to and influenced by previous interventions with teachers more generally, Project DREAM is responsive to and supportive of specific needs expressed by non-core subject teachers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dd5967d3f5ead5affed3944/1580237649677-8C5YSHXW6IU1LE9JMRS3/image-asset.jpeg Projects - iPals The Illinois Physical Activity and Life Skills (iPALS) Wellness Program is an innovative summer learning and environment program developed as a partnership between the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Champaign, IL Unit 4 Schools. Specifically, the program seeks to provide youth in the local Champaign area from communities affected by poverty with a 20-day summer program that focuses on five key areas of personal and interpersonal development: (a) physical activity, (b) academic enrichment, (c) nutrition education, (d) lifestyle enrichment, and (e) social and emotional learning. Related to physical activity, evidence suggests that children from communities affected by poverty are at a higher risk for developing sedentary lifestyles that contribute to the incidence of preventable health-related diseases. Accordingly, iPALS provides youth with the recommended 60 minutes of physical activity each day during the four weeks of the program. Physical activity is provided in a developmentally appropriate manner that focuses on (a) enjoyment for movement, (b) basic motor competencies required for future physical activity participation, (c) an understanding of the importance of movement for health and wellbeing, and (d) encouragement to continue physical activity outside of the camp. The academic enrichment pillar acknowledges that children from communities affected by poverty often experience opportunity and achievement gaps that are compounded through disengagement with academic learning over the summer. iPALS provides academic support and tutoring to help combat this “summer slide” and better prepare students to begin the next school year. Content for this program component encompasses math and reading as well as the sciences and is aligned grade-level benchmarks and students’ needs identified by parents, teachers, and test results. The nutrition education component is based on the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) MyPlate curriculum. The program was developed with the goal to learn about the different MyPlate food groups via interactive games. Example lessons will include “I Eat five Food Groups” and “Dig In! Tasty Veggies at Lunch!” The nutrition curriculum also includes basic food preparation and cooking skills and lessons to promote safe handling of food. The lifestyle enrichment pillar provides instruction related to the development of life skills (e.g., critical and creative thinking, decision making, problem solving, effective communication) through active learning. Students participate in group and individual tasks that engage them in life skill acquisition (e.g., teambuilding challenges) followed by debriefing conversations that focus on the application of these skills to daily life outside of the program. The social and emotional learning component of the program is addressed through application of the teaching personal and social responsibility (TPSR) pedagogical model as the overarching framework for iPALS. The TPSR model takes a student-centered approach to helping youth learn skills associated with perseverance, resilience, and individual and group processing. The model focuses on five goals: (a) respect and self-control, (b) participation and effort, (c) self-direction, (d) caring about others and leadership, and (e) transfer. The transfer goal seeks to help youth learn how to apply the first four goals to other peer, school, family, and community activities and environments, and is the overarching purpose of the model. https://www.thehpewebsite.com/research daily 0.75 2025-10-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dd5967d3f5ead5affed3944/1580082462393-191OSF9C165MSOVVAGB0/Head%2Bshot%2B2019.jpg Research - Dr. Risto Marttinen Dr. Risto Marttinen ‘15 Ed.D Columbia University https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dd5967d3f5ead5affed3944/1579658913810-E9QO95CMCW81SYOIS2GG/K_Andrew_R_Richards.jpeg Research - Dr. K. Andrew R. Richards I am interested in studying teacher socialization, which helps to inform how we recruit and prepare physical education teachers and teacher educators, along with their experiences working in schools and institutions of higher education. I also study social and emotional learning in physical activity spaces, primarily through the teaching personal and social responsibility (TPSR) model. Along with my doctoral students, I have had the opportunity to develop and implement programs both in and outside of school settings focused on helping preservice teachers learn to use the TPSR model in practice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dd5967d3f5ead5affed3944/1580082594987-W42ZCEEE7ZD2ZFYZP2O2/erin-centeio.jpg Research - Dr. Erin Centeio https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dd5967d3f5ead5affed3944/1580082616666-B7D0ADM09HRMEO6D7LXI/Banville.jpg Research - Dr. Dominique Banville https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dd5967d3f5ead5affed3944/1581179903593-AQLNMB05VPZTIUKPYXAY/Screen+Shot+2020-02-08+at+11.37.44+AM.png Research - SHAPE AMERICA Unlock research SHAPE America produces a monthly article breakdown through an infographic that summarizes a research article.

The goal is sort of straightforward – I think. I hope to show different ways in which research is rigorous and thoughtful as well as approachable, fun and creative. And, I always want to encourage others to join in… In this entry, I provide a little background. https://www.thehpewebsite.com/building-community-in-pete daily 0.75 2023-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dd5967d3f5ead5affed3944/1587667049834-1GN8JQCINE9FEZXIQYHC/image-asset.jpeg Building Community in PETE The PETE Collaborative is open to any PETE professor or graduate student studying physical education https://www.thehpewebsite.com/read-me-bedford daily 0.75 2025-05-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52a74d9ae4b0253945d2aee9/1390928870858-4D9B6T9WGP8017NSS9W3/topography.jpg Read Me
