Teaching Secondary Physical Education

Number one, I appreciated the instructor; he sent timely, detailed feedback on each assignment I submitted, which helped confirm I was completing each assignment correctly and with the right amount of depth and breadth. Number two, I enjoyed the text book - especially answering the questions to hold my reading accountable. The questions force one to go deeper into the reading than one might otherwise do and because of such effort make the rest of the assignments go much more smoothly has they have something concrete to connect with beyond the day to day practical, real-life experiences. In addition, I like that I have a year to complete the course so I can pick my moments, never feel rushed, but still with a hard deadline. Finally, I like the module layout, Website, and overall online aspect - smooth, user friendly, a time saver in and of itself. Thank you to the instructor and Fresno Pacific for this opportunity!

This course was a valuable experience that connected well to what I am currently teaching. It reinforced effective practices I already use while also introducing new ideas and strategies I had not previously considered. I feel more confident in exploring different approaches in my classroom and look forward to implementing these new strategies to enhance student engagement and learning.

This was a very informative course that I enjoyed taking and being able to add to my knowledge of teaching. I have been teaching for 5 years now, and think that this was a great reflective opportunity for myself to see some of the blindspots that I have in my teaching. The book was super easy to navigate, and the assignments all felt worthwhile and reflective.

This was a fantastic course! The directions were easy to follow and I fell like I learned a lot. I know I will be using a lot of the information I learned as well as referring to the textbook from the course in my future teaching.

The class was rigorous, and I learned a lot. I think the structure of the class is well organized and the amount of reading that is required is tremendous. I was forced to learn and that is what made this class excellent. I didn't have a choice but to learn the information. The instructor made great observations, comments and had great insights for my assignments. Thank you for your help!

Bill Cockerham is the man. I really appreciate his feedback and will always encourage other physical education teachers pursuing their license to this institution because the courses I've taken with him as the professor. I enjoyed doing the coursework and ultimately have become a better teacher because of this class. Thank you!

I would recommend this course because I felt it was really helpful to observe teachers who are veteran teachers. I also felt the textbook was helpful and relevant.

For PED-912 - Dr. Cockerham was a great teacher. Quick to grade assignments, communicate, and offer detailed feedback. There is still one more grade that needs to be input (Assign. 2.2), but even if that were to be a 0, I would still receive an A- (90.99%) in the class, which is why I am submitting this final grade request today. Thanks so much! Feel free to let me know if there is anything else I need to do. cell: 559-393-3846, Stephen
