Abstract: This research examined content and task decisions of 11 urban secondary
physical educators who placed a high priority on social curriculum goals.
Transcript data from a stimulated-recall protocol were analyzed using constant
comparison to determine the extent to which content and task decisions
represented social justice and reform goals of social reconstruction or of
citizenship and positive interaction more consistent with social responsibility.
Results suggested that teachers' content decisions were consistent with the
goals of cooperation, teamwork, and involvement within the social responsibility
value orientation. Task structures for middle school programs involved
large group activities, while high school tasks focused on individual activities
performed as a member of a small group.
