Abstract: This resource compiles experiences, perspectives, and strategies of physical education educators working in international schools around the globe. The stories display the unique challenges and exciting opportunities international school teachers must navigate while providing helpful landmarks for this journey, tailored to physical education contexts. Chapters describe a variety of scenarios this unique yet growing group of educators may encounter across teaching, curriculum, socialization, and more. The authors consider the distinctions of international schools such as location, population, educational philosophy, model, and culture that may go beyond traditional pedagogical guidance provided in traditional physical education teacher training. The editors, each with decades of experience in physical education and international schools between them, close each section with a synthesis with further resources, key takeaways, and anecdotes from their own experiences. Ideal for any international school educator working as or with physical education teachers, this book enables teachers to provide more meaningful physical education experiences for students around the world.
