“…The main aim of PE is to motivate all students to engage in a lifelong, physically active and healthy lifestyle (Kirk, 2010;Norwegian Directorate for Education and Training, 2015;Gerdin et al, 2019). A recent report reveals that PE in Norwegian schools lacks variation both in content and teaching methods, and that this has resulted in a subject that is not beneficial for all students (Moen et al, 2018).…”

“…Our efforts to move beyond rehearsed arguments of what it is and what it is not in practice (the what, or noun) are largely propelled by policy imperatives in the Australian context that mandate action beyond an 'optional extra' for HPE teachers. Yet, numerous research projects illustrate that despite these imperatives, critical pedagogies are taken up differentially and sometimes problematically, if at all, in the day-to-day milieu of school PE (GERDIN et al, 2018). To that end, we have sought to think through the 'how', the ways in which teachers can and do take up this call to action, and to consider ways in which a more systematic and sustained approach to critical pedagogy might be enabled.…”

“…Prominent here in postulations for improved engagement with critical pedagogies is the challenge for policy to influence practice in ways that are contextual and contingent. Gerdin et al (2018) and Schenker et al (2019) report on various dimensions of a transnational comparison of critical conceptualisations and enactments in school-based HPE programs. Underpinned by a critique of neoliberalism the authors proffer the potential learnings that can be generated from comparing and contrasting social justice practices in different cultural contexts.…”

“…Forskning innen kroppsøving viser at faget, slik det blir undervist i dag, i stor grad har en tradisjonell tilnaerming som favoriserer visse elevgrupper og marginaliserer andre (Fitzpatrick, 2013;Gerdin, 2016;Gerdin et al, 2019;Öhman, Almqvist & Meckbach, 2014). Säfvenbom, Bulie & Haugen (2015) fant for eksempel at idrettsaktive elever opplever større tilhørighet til faget enn de som ikke driver med organisert idrett på fritiden.…”

“…Sitatet viser en laerer som, basert på refleksjon og kunnskap om sine elever på både individ og samfunnsnivå, jobber med å inkludere dem i undervisningen med mål om å øke deltakelse, fellesskap, demokratisering og dermed deres laeringsutbytte. Til forskjell fra tidligere studier som viser at kroppsøvingsfaget og laerere favoriserer visse grupper framfor andre, for eksempel basert på idrettsbakgrunn eller kjønn (Fitzpatrick, 2013;Gerdin, 2016;Gerdin et al, 2019;Öhman, Almqvist & Meckbach, 2014;Säfvenbom, Bulie & Haugen, 2014), finner vi at John er opptatt av elevene som enkeltindivider, med de historier hver og en har med seg inn i skolen og timen. At vi som forskere fikk innsikt i at John hadde en historie å fortelle om Warren og de andre guttene som ligger utenfor skolekonteksten (at de var i politiets oppsyn), viser at laereren hadde kunnskap om hvordan eksonivået (politiet) grep direkte inn i hverdagen til disse guttene.…”
