For many years students have been exposed to inappropriate instructional practices in physical education, resulting in bad experiences and inadequate learning. Introducing pre service physical education (PE) majors to Appropriate Instructional Practices (AIP) is a recommended method of preparation. Unfortunately, many PE majors have been exposed to inappropriate instructional practice; thus they perceive those practices as appropriate to use in their teaching. To determine PE majors’ understanding of AIP, 313 PE majors (161 males & 152 females) from 7 different institutions participated in this study. Based on incorrect responses it was found that PE majors believed that organizing students in large group for activities was an appropriate instructional practice. In addition, results demonstrated that PE majors thought students should be graded for wearing prescribed clothing in class and be required to sit out if not dressed appropriately. With these results PETE faculties have a great opportunity and have a better understanding of preparing their PE majors in appropriate instructional practices.

如果學生接觸到不恰當的體育教學，容易造成不好的經驗和學習的不足。本文邀請313體育本科生(男161，女152)參加了這項研究。結果表明，體育本科生認為需要分級穿著規定體育服裝，以及理解他們體育專業的教學實踐。
