Hare, Molly K.
Teaching Elementary Physical Education, v13 n1 p6-9 Jan 2002

Through this developmental stage, physical educator majors' and beginning teachers' understanding of teaching takes the form of different levels of conceptualization (preconceptions, naive conceptions, appropriate conceptions, and misconceptions).
