Grantee Submission
This article is a follow-up to a previous Journal of Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance Viewpoint article ("The Physical Activity Movement and the Definition of Physical Education"), wherein the authors challenged the oft-cited distinction between physical education and physical activity, and proposed an alternate definition of physical education that is aligned with the need to promote physical activity in schools. [This paper was published in "Journal of Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance" Jan 2017. To view the original paper, "The Physical Activity Movement and the Definition of Physical Education," see ED597331.]
