Earlier this year many faculty members were able to sign up and receive a Tablet PC. It has been a gift to my education process, and in turn, has helped me become a more innovative and creative teacher.
The direction that our PE program would like to head is one that involves all of our students in an activity that they enjoy doing AND are working their cardiovascular endurance. Today, while working with Patrick Higgins, he showed me a link to a video that shows a PE class involved in an activity. It is exactly the direction I would love to see our PE program head in.
Below is the link to the video clip that Patrick sent me. Take a look at it to see where PE programs of the present are:

After viewing this clip, you can see that it involves many students, creates a cardiovascular workout, AND they are enjoying what they are doing. It is wonderful to see this type of activity occurring. Obviously, this system is very expensive.
We have no problem investing needed money into the academic portion of our students, wouldn't it be nice if we were to invest this type of money into our students' physical health.

Health and Physical Education can help all of us expand our minds and strengthen our bodies. My intention for this blog site is to help educate people about the importance of exercise and nutrition while utilizing the web. Making a commitment to these two components can help all of us live a longer, healthier, and a more enjoyable life.

Cath,
Great stuff here. Let's start driving some traffic to your blog!
To make a link to someone or something, just highlight the text in the post when you are creating it, and click the icon (looks like either a chain link or an earth) and enter in the address for the person or page you want to go to.
I can show you this on Wednesday.
