Teaching Sports Concepts and Skills by Stephen Mitchell

Reference for teachers of physical education and coaches. This work provides a brief overview of tactical games teaching for those not familiar with the approach. It features practical lesson plans for a variety of sports, including soccer, basketball, volleyball, badminton and tennis, and focuses on a student centred teaching and learning method, helping players and students identify their practice needs and apply the tactical approach for themselves. A DVD shows how the authors implement the tactical games approach in lessons representing a cross section of the sports and lesson plans.

Stephen Mitchell gained his undergraduate and masters degrees at Loughborough University, where the tactical approach was first developed. Now an associate professor of sport pedagogy at Kent State University, USA and a licensed coach with over 20 years experience, Dr Mitchell has applied the tactical approach to his teaching at all levels. Judith Oslin is a professor of sport pedagogy at Kent State University with more than 30 years teaching and coaching experience.

As a physical educator and coach since 1976, Linda Griffin has been widely published on authentic assessment, children's conceptions and conceptual change of students sport and physical activity knowledge.
