Which statement is NOT a goal of a student-centered approach to physical education?

• A. Encouraging A Lifelong Commitment To Physical Activity
• B. Reducing The Burden On Teachers
• C. Increasing Student Motivation And Ownership Of Goals
• D. Fostering A Desire To Participate In Physical Activity Outside Of School Hours

Answer: (B)

Student-centered physical education focuses on learners taking an active role, making choices, and developing personal responsibility to stay active beyond the classroom. The goals are to build intrinsic motivation, give students ownership of their goals, and spark a desire to be active outside school hours, all of which support a lifelong engagement with physical activity. Reducing the burden on teachers isn’t a goal of this approach; the emphasis is on student growth and participation, not on cutting teacher workload.
