Description
This session uses pictures and images the participants have chosen to stimulate discussion among them about what studying sport can reveal about you and your own body, coaching and instructional pr...actices, group behaviour and sport's place in wider society. Each of our three guests introduce a picture and explain why they’ve chosen it. The session provides an insight into the backgrounds of some of the staff who contribute to OU modules and offers a flavour of some of the main topics covered in the study of sport at the OU. It is an informal conversation that covers a range of subjects and you are likely to learn something about the meaning of sport beyond the trivial and its purpose in university education.
