I really enjoyed this class , I think it is always good to look in the past and learn from it. I found it to be educational and rather rewarding to review life lessons learned by some of the greatest of all time. The work was educational and really made me think outside the box to make content for future lessons I could use.

Taking the Learning from the Legends course, based on The Games Do Count, has been a truly rewarding experience. As a PE teacher and coach at an international school in Tunis, I found the stories of athletes, politicians, and entertainers both relatable and inspiring. Each legend’s journey reminded me that sports are not just about winning games but about building resilience, teamwork, empathy, and discipline — lessons I can directly bring to my students.

The course was well paced and had a manageable workload. I did not enjoy the reading material that went with the course. If you are learning from the legends I assumed it would be within sports or physical education but it was not. It was mainly about politicians and lacked sections on women.

There is a lot of work to pull together, no doubt; however, I believe for folks who are in current PE teaching positions the course work is more than reasonable; for me, I perhaps made more work than I needed to but in order to wrap my brain around the "12 week plan" assignment I wanted to take the time to flesh out an actual 12 week unit complete with standards and learning outcomes before I tackled that part of the assignment. Too, I perhaps went to deep into the assigned book pulling out specific quotes from various celebrities; however, this will save me time in the future when I apply some of the quotes to lessons with future students and athletes I work with - something I already starting doing as the year progressed while taking this course - adding great fuel and fresh insight into how I was assessing and motivating athletes and students.

I am really glad that I took this course because I learned that sports has so many life lessons that we can connect inside of our classrooms. These life lessons are important to teach our students such as teamwork, determination, motivation, self-confidence, etc. This course helped remind me that sports have connections to all subject areas and can be used to teach many significant concepts.

Learning from the Legends provided me with useful anecdotes and quips to use in my various physical education units. Legends were tv and film personalities, professional athletes, and politicians. Enlightening to realize their ups and downs in life and sport and how all of that drove them to success and realizing that they were not going to be the all star athlete that they dreamed of becoming but through sport they learned how to thrive and succeed.

This course was very good. Learning how other athletes overcame obstacles in their lives can have beneficial outcomes for students and how they perceive themselves. The projects were simple and direct and supported the outcomes promoted for this coursework. I recommend this course for beginners like myself and for those instructors who need a little refresher in thinking like the students.

I liked the sports information on the famous people in the public eye. I enjoyed reading short bios in the text, The Games Do Count by Brian Kilmeade. I was able to introduce the concepts/points realistically into my PE classes.

I really enjoyed this course. It has really made me think about ways to incorporate these important lessons into my students' day with little prior prep time. I like the wide variety of legends to use with my students. It is easy to find a number of legends that my many different students can relate with.
