ABSTRACT:
The development of values through physical activity has been a longstanding objective of physical educators and coaches. Unfortunately, there is little evidence about values education through physical activity. This paper discusses the problems educators have encountered in values development in a sports setting and presents a model through which a more productive approach to teaching can be taken. The model suggests that educators must make a stronger commitment to values education by being better role models and that they actually teach toward learning through the affective domain. It also utilizes a structural-developmental approach from Kohlberg's concept of moral reasoning as its base. Reviews and evaluates the two theoretical orientations that have generally been incorporated for attaining values through physical activity. Discusses prerequisites to model construction and then proposes a model which describes a more productive means for teaching values education. Stresses the importance of establishing a curriculum for change, providing goals, evaluating change and implementing what is learned in the evaluation. Suggests that educators must be better role models in order to improve values education.
