INDEX 
Measurement by the Physical Educator: Why and How, helps the physical education, exercise science, or kinesiology major develop the necessary confidence and skills to measure and assess student' knowledge and physical performance in physical education classes.  Beyond just providing measurement techniques, this instructive, readable text also teaches the reason for the measurement and how to apply the results of assessment to the design of learning activities that will meet students' physical activity needs.  This book prepares future physical educators for work in a variety of settings, both school and non-school, by providing practical methods of measuring skills, knowledge, physical performance, and physical fitness.
