Leader's Handbook. Guide for Planning Preservice and Inservice Programs for Secondary Teachers. Physical Educators for Equity.

This handbook is designed to accompany seven instructional modules which were developed to help physical educators reduce sex bias in secondary physical education classes. Module topics are: (1) introduction to stereotyping and discrimination; (2) sex-role stereotyping and its effects; (3) biological sex differences; (4) Title IX; (5) curriculum development; (6) teacher behavior; and (7) student performance evaluation. Although the modules are intended for self-instruction, they may be used in teacher workshops and in a variety of classroom settings, including methods courses and student teaching seminars. For each of the modules, activities are presented that include readings and films considered fundamental to the understanding of the topics presented. A reading on each module topic is also provided along with suggested group activities. Supplementary resources are listed, including print materials--books, articles, resource lists, journals, and magazines; non-print materials--16mm films, filmstrips, audio cassettes, and multimedia kits; and resource centers--organizations, publishers, and projects which are concerned with nonsexist education and women's issues. Each entry in the list is briefly annotated, and suggestions for use are provided. Alternative schedules for studying the modules are suggested, including four- or eight-hour workshops, seven- to eight-hour self-instruction, and selecting certain modules or activities on one topic.
