About the Book

Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility Through Physical Activity now enters its fourth edition, continuing the legacy of Don Hellison and his teaching personal and social responsibility (TPSR) model. This text is the only comprehensive resource covering the TPSR model through physical activity. With more than 50 years of use in gyms, playing fields, and classrooms, the TPSR model has withstood the test of time and continues to be used to teach transferable life skills to kids from all backgrounds to support positive social change.

Building on the foundation of research from the first three editions, this updated text connects TPSR to the recent emphasis on mental health, social and emotional learning (SEL), and trauma-informed practices. It also provides direction to teach affective and social goals, giving an in-depth look into teaching character development and values to help students develop personal and social responsibility.

Designed to enhance reader comprehension, Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility Through Physical Activity, Fourth Edition, is a practical resource with proven and easy-to-implement ideas to support student growth in school, after school, and in alternative settings. Special features include these:

  • TPSR in Action: sidebars written by world-wide practitioners that highlight the creativity and innovation of TPSR through programs and projects across cultural and linguistic borders
  • Is It Working?: examples of the cutting-edge research that supports TPSR
  • Kid Quotes: quotes from kids in TPSR programs as well as quotes from teachers and coaches
  • Takeaways: summary points in every chapter
  • Robust appendixes: samples of TPSR lesson plans, a TPSR implementation checklist, a kinesiology career club workbook, a post-teaching reflection, and a TPSR feedback form
  • Online resources including forms, unit and lesson plans, and learner assessments from the book that can be easily downloaded via HKPropel

Balancing theory and practice, the TPSR model is recognized as a best practice in physical education and sport-based youth development. This text takes Hellison’s model and reflects on new information, cultural awareness, and current practice to ensure that kids benefit from the TPSR model for years to come.
