Neikirk, Mary
This module, intended for secondary school physical education teachers, identifies the four major components of a curriculum and the factors which must be considered in curriculum development. Examples of the factors which must be considered in curriculum development are given, and guidelines are offered for eliminating sex-role stereotyping and sex discrimination in the construction of a secondary school physical education curriculum. Seven sections explain and provide exercises on: (1) definitions of sex-role stereotyping, sex discrimination, and educational equity; (2) definition of curriculum; (3) key factors in developing a curriculum; (4) fourteen guidelines for eliminating sex-role stereotyping and discrimination in physical education programs; (5) sex-integrated physical education programs that work; (6) a typical curriculum; and (7) building an unbiased curriculum.
