Exploring Coaching Styles in Sports Education

In this episode I’m joined by Dr Brendan SueSee and Dr Shane Pill. We continue the conversation on the spectrum of teaching styles from episode 232.

Shane is one of Australia's leading coach educators and developers, and thought leaders in physical education. He is Associate Professor in Physical Education and Sport at Flinders University. Shane's research is in the fields of sport coaching and physical education curriculum and pedagogy, and education leadership. He has authored over 150 peer reviewed and scholarly articles.

Brendan is a senior Lecturer in Health and Physical Education at University of Southern Queensland. His interests are in the Spectrum of Teaching Styles and Physical Education Pedagogy. Prior to lecturing, Brendan was a high school physical education teacher for over 20 years.

Brendan and Shane take us through the Spectrum of Teaching Styles and break each one down as it applies to sports coaches – a topic they have written about in the brilliant book they have co-written called The Spectrum of Sport Coaching Styles.
