 Administration and Management of Physical Education and Athletic Programs Fourth Edition
Clayne R. Jensen and Steven J. Overman
This highly regarded text continues to be the
foremost guide for effective planning, organizing, and managing every facet of
programs in physical education and athletics. The Fourth Edition features an
abundance of up-to-date information for the twenty-first century administrator
on such topics as: curriculum standards and trends; state-of-the-art building
security; legal liability and risk management; facilities planning and
construction; Equal Opportunity, Affirmative Action, and Title IX legislation;
and management/leadership styles and theories. The authors stress the importance
of determining one’s own personal management philosophy. They emphasize the
increasing importance of computers and other technology in program planning and
evaluation, budgeting, scheduling, public relations, office management,
intramurals, and other applications. The book provides expanded and updated
treatments of human-resource management, policies and procedures, eligibility
issues and drug testing, events planning, fitness testing, and instruction for
disabled students. Helpful Web sites appear at the end of each chapter to
facilitate further research and study. The appendices provide a comprehensive
list of professional organizations and periodicals, a detailed facility-planning
checklist, physical education curriculum evaluation criteria, the AAHPERD code
of ethics, and the Society of State Directors of HPER position statements on
extra-class programs and interscholastic athletics. $43.95 list, 414 pages 10-digit ISBN: 1-57766-272-5 13-digit ISBN: 978-1-57766-272-3 © 2003 Table of Contents
