Learning styles of dance and physical education majors were described and compared. Subjects were 167 declared majors in 1982 from 9 universities (87 PE, 80 dance; 44 males, 115 females). Kolb's Learning Style Inventory which measures abstractness or concreteness and activity or reflectivity was given. By t test (.05) no significant differences in preferred learning style were found between majors or genders.

This study examined the personality characteristics of physical education and recreation majors, and ascertained why some students choose one over the other. Forty-nine physical education and recreation majors were administered Holland's Self-directed Search. A 2 × 3 fixed-factorial design was employed, sex and major plus a control group were independent variables. Both 24 recreation and 25 physical education majors were alike in the personality profiles and were very similar to recreation and physical education professionals already in the field. Significant differences were found on secondary, less dominant characteristics which may contribute to selection of a specialization area.

The purpose of this study was to compare the teaching process interaction behavior of teachers who planned for classes with those who did not plan. Senior physical education majors served as the teaching subjects for this study—six in the planning (experimental) group and six in the no-plan (control) group. Each teacher taught the same lesson content for a 15-minute episode. The planning group spent 1 hour before the lesson writing explicit plans, while the control group was given 2 minutes just before the lesson to gather their thoughts and be informed of the content to be covered. The behaviors of all teachers were observed by the Cheffers Adaptation of the Flanders’ Interaction Analysis System (CAFIAS). The results indicated significant differences in only two interaction categories: amount of directions given and the amount of silence. Both variables were better for the planning group.

The use of literature, survey interviews, comparative and other research methods, a comprehensive analysis of Physical Education undergraduate technical courses setting conditions, the results show that the technical courses in physical education majors in an important position, but In recent years Technical Course hours are on a downward trend; enhance the Physical Education Major of course construction, need to focus on technical elective and required courses in a reasonable setting, to strengthen technical subjects main course construction, attention to developing basic technical skills and enhance the technical courses of teachers. This article aims to further deepen the new era of Undergraduate Physical Education Major of reference for curriculum reform.
