The ‘traditional’ sport-driven, performance obsessed and arguably elitist delivery of physical education (PE) has, for many years, remained resistant to change. Why is that? Across the globe, obesity levels are rising, mental health concerns are sky-rocketing and physical activity participation rates continue to fall far short of CMO guidelines for so many. Meanwhile, PE curriculum time is being further marginalised in schools. At a time when inspiring and instilling healthy active habits in all young people could not be more important, what responsibility can we take as current ...

Standards are the foundation of our educational systems today. Fairness, rigor, and high achievement for all students are the focus of standards-based schools. Yet the standards movement means nothing if it does not improve student achievement in the classroom. In this revised edition, Dr. Reeves provides step-by-step guidance on how to design and implement standards-based performance assessment to make improved teaching and learning a reality in the classroom.

Grades and assessment are elephants in almost every room where discussions of education are underway. This collection examines the what, why, and whether of grades: When do they fail? What harm do they do and how can we mitigate that harm? Can we construct more poetic, less supposedly objective, models for assessment? The word “ungrading" means raising an eyebrow at grades as a systemic practice, distinct from simply “not grading.” The word is a present participle, an ongoing process, not a static set of practices. Ungrading is a systemic critique, a series of conversations we have ...

The science standards movement represents an unimaginative design of science teaching. It’s unimaginative in the sense that the standards-makers worked within a box of content that has been contained since the later part of the 19th Century. In the last decade of that century, the Committee of Ten recommended a science curriculum (as part of a larger school curriculum) that is not much different what we see in the textbooks used in today’s science courses. Indeed, the committee’s that wrote the NGSS apparently did not stray far from this earlier science curriculum. The standards-based...

If you are a teacher, you know the drill. Students can now generate most traditional assignments simply by copying and pasting our instructions into their AI of choice. Our first impulse has been to catch these mindless papers. But our detectors are probabilistic, not certain. And more and more AI-generated work will escape detection. In the end, policing alone is not a winning strategy. In Teaching in the Age of AI, after a little commiseration over our current pains, we shift our thinking to the future. The first question is how to re-imagine the forms our assignments take so that ...
