Positive pedagogy for sport coaching

In this episode I talk with Dr. Adrian Turner from Bowling Green State University (BGSU) in the USA. Adrian is an educator that had been using game-based pedagogies since the 1980's and was responsible for a number of early research studies on its impact on student learning in physical education. At BGSU Adrian leads courses where he teaches physical education teacher education students to apply the model in school-based contexts. He has also worked with and supported youth soccer coaches in Ohio as they looked to integrate game-based pedagogies into their practice. In the episode, Adrian outlines in more detail some of the things he has learned from his work and how he plans to continue this work in the future. Adrian can be contacted at [e-mail].
