摘要:Aim.This research was about sports leadership practices in physical education at institute of sports teacher education (ISTE) which had demonstrated success in the area of physical education (P.E).The overall research goal was to examine to what extent and how leadership-related practices impacted sports leadership practices in physical education at ISTE.A case study approach was used to explore four key sports leadership-related practices (supervision,curriculum,professional development,and knowledgeable leaders) and their impact based on P.E instructional strategies.The study participants included two leaders and fourteen lecturers from a single ISTE located in Perlis.To collect and analyze opinions of leader and lecturer behaviors,sixteen interviews were conducted.Qualitative coding techniques were used to develop common themes/ categories of information.Conclusion.Analysis of the data provided two dominant categories that lecturer participants viewed as significant factors in her or his ability to successfully teach P.E and the influence of sports leadership practices and the impact of P.E instructional strategies.Overall,this study supports previous research on this topic in that if a coherent P.E framework is supported through the leaders’ supervision;its foundation is a comprehensive curriculum;and the leaders,as well as lecturers,become knowledgeable of the framework through P.E professional development,then classroom instruction will be influenced and students will experience quality of P.E instruction.The findings from this study further add to the literature based by providing a deeper understanding of how leaders can impact P.E instruction.
