Physical education curricula have undergone significant evolution to prioritize physical training, personal hygiene, character development, fitness development, sports competency, and health. These emphases have given rise to diverse approaches to conceptualizing curricula for primary and secondary schools. This book highlights the need for a fresh perspective on physical education curriculum conceptualization.

Reconceptualizing Physical Education introduces a conceptual framework that centers around the life journey of physical activity, guided by the monist perspective and a lifelong approach to physical literacy. In Section I, the book provides essential theoretical articulations for a two-dimensional framework aimed at educating learners to adopt a lifelong perspective on personal health and physically active lifestyles. Section II presents curriculum frameworks specifically designed for primary and secondary schools. Within each framework chapter, the details of content and learning tasks are discussed in terms of the two-dimensional functions. Each framework can be directly utilized for curriculum development purposes.

The book is intended for curriculum scholars, researchers in physical education, graduate students in health and physical education curriculum studies, and teachers in physical education and health education. It may also be of interest to researchers and graduate students in kinesiology fields and public health.
