Description
Using such philosophical concepts as deontology, teleology and existentialism, this course provides an inquiry into ethics and morality as they apply to sport and physical education. The course challenges students' understanding of theories and frameworks, develops skills using methods in moral reasoning and critical reflection, and examines issues of professionalism and professional conduct. The role of organizations in promoting ethical values and social responsibilities in sport and physical education is also examined and critically evaluated.
