This book includes the standard matter covered in a Legal Environment of Business text including a discussion of Cyberlaw and ethical issues. The format differs, however, by including cutting edge cases, cases that have been decided in the past few years or matters involving the legal disputes of the rich and famous. For instance, a student will learn about punitive damages by reading about a case involving Whitney Houston. Domain name disputes will focus on litigation involving Madonna and Sting. The enforcement of an arbitration agreement deals with Latrell Sprewell and his assault of the head coach of the player's former basketball team. It is believed this approach will stimulate interest in the materials since the players in the litigation will be well known to the general public and students will enjoy learning about the legal exploits of these famous people. In addition, the book follows the legal problems of a family during the semister in which a series of written problems are presented in order to stress legal anaylsis and writing.

Case Studies in Adapted Physical Education: Empowering Critical Thinking

Covering self-contained adapted physical education classes, general physical education programs, and youth sports and community recreation, this book presents a series of case studies of teaching individuals of varied ability and disability in physical activity settings. Outlining realistic scenarios, it encourages an interactive, problem-solving teaching and learning style and the development of critical thinking skills. Now in a fully revised and updated second edition, the book covers a wide range of different professional issues, themes, disabilities, and conditions, from assessment and behavior management processes to working with students with intellectual disabilities, motor difficulties, chronic illness, or obesity. Each case study includes questions that challenge the reader to reflect on the practical issues involved and how to build inclusive teaching strategies. This book is valuable reading for all physical education students, teacher candidates, and novice and experienced teachers looking to deepen their understanding of adapted physical education and to improve their professional practice. It is an essential companion to any adapted physical education or physical activity course.

The case studies in this book provide readers with opportunities to think critically about real-life situations that arise when working with children with varied abilities and disabilities, as well as opportunities to question and explore and to empower themselves in the process. The case scenarios illustrate actual experiences faced by a diverse group of general and adapted physical educators representing various contexts from self-contained APE classes and inclusive GPE (elementary, middle, and high school; urban, rural, and suburban) to youth sports, community recreation, and health club settings. When reading the book, pre-service and in-service teachers will be exposed to the issues facing physical educators as changes in federal law further mandate the inclusion of students with disabilities in general physical education classes and after-school sports. Identifying with the situations and characters in the cases will encourage readers to explore such issues as diversity and disability, attitude and ethics, behavior management and conflict resolution, and inclusion strategies. Questions following each case prompt readers to identify the critical issues and how the physical education professionals dealt with those issues, and then determine whether they would have handled the issues in the same way. Analyzing and discussing the cases will enable readers to formulate strategies for dealing with related issues and better prepare them to provide safe, satisfying, and successful physical activity experiences to individuals with varied abilities.
