Correct Response: B. One of the most important goals of a secondary physical education program is to provide students with the knowledge, skills, and motivation to participate in physical activities throughout their lives. A significant challenge in pursuing that goal is finding adequate time and developing appropriate activities to encourage students' development of an appreciation of and commitment to physical activity. Most teacher education programs offer preservice teachers opportunities for work experience in the field (A). Locating contemporary curriculum models is unlikely to be a significant challenge for secondary physical educators (C), nor is distinguishing between appropriate activities for middle school versus high school physical education programs (D).
