All professionals are expected to follow best practices within their disciplines. In physical education (PE), many such practices are outlined in the Society of Health and Physical Educators' (SHAPE America) Appropriate Instructional Practice Guidelines, K-12 (2009). Physical education teacher education (PETE) programs are responsible for the preparation of future PE teachers, including teaching them about appropriate and inappropriate practices. Overall, PETE faculty generally agree that their programs are preparing students to implement appropriate practices when they become PE teachers. However, this is not true across all practices or for all PETE programs. Individual programs may wish to examine what they are personally doing to prepare their majors for appropriate practices and develop strategies for any areas in need of improvement. The purpose of this article is to discuss those appropriate practices from SHAPE America's Appropriate Instructional Practice Guidelines, K-12 (2009) that PETE students are least prepared for, as reported by program faculty, and to provide strategies to prepare these students to implement these appropriate practices when they enter the profession.
