Submission Title: Instant Feedback
Submission Theme: Technology
Submission Entry: What do young kids want to do? That's right have fun. What encourages students? That's right movement, technology, and rewards. By the year 2020 I envision students using technology in physical education class as a motivating tool to want to stay fit. All learners love instant feedback that pertains to themselves. Imagine if students could keep data of their own fitness and skill levels using rubrics and standards. I believe that in 2020 that students will use some kind of computer that will allow them to take responsibility for their own fitness. I feel that the computers will allow students to know when they can advance to new levels and give rewards for completing different skills and fitness goals (example certificate print-outs).
