TL;DR: The authors argue that models can be useful tools for thinking about instruction, but models-based-practices are no substitute for a thoughtful and thorough physical education program, and they draw on the theoretical concepts of Deleuze, in particular his notion of "striated" space to analyze SPARK-PE, HOPE, and sport education.
Abstract: In this paper, we reflect on models-based practices in physical education using a sociocritical lens. Drawing links between neoliberal moves in education, and critical approaches to the body and physicality, we take a view that models are useful tools that are worth integrating into physical education, but we are apprehensive to suggest they should redefine the purpose of physical education. In arguing this, we attempt to understand the particular effects of certain models on practice and students. We draw on the theoretical concepts of Deleuze, in particular his notion of ‘striated’ space to analyze SPARK-PE, HOPE, and Sport Education. We assert that some models can be useful tools for thinking about instruction, but models-based-practices are no substitute for a thoughtful and thorough physical education program.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Deleuzo-Guattarian theory to reflect on my affective experiences as a queer male physical education teacher, using auto-ethnographic data from my first year as a physical educator.
Abstract: Background: Physical education has historically been a repressive place for queer persons. Since physical education spaces are predominantly heteronormative, research on sexual identity management has shown lesbian teachers often try to ‘pass’ as straight or distance themselves from their sexualities. There has been no research to date that examines the experiences of queer male physical educators.Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to use Deleuzo-Guattarian theory to reflect on my affective experiences as a queer male physical educator. A secondary goal is to transcend binary theorising that has shaped previous research in the field.Design and Analysis: This paper uses autoethnographic examination to analyse experiences as a queer male physical educator. Data consists of narratives from my first year as a physical educator. These narratives are analysed using Deleuzo-Guattarian theory to map their affective implications.Conclusion: I conclude the paper by reflecting on and recommending several ...

TL;DR: Deleuze's book as mentioned in this paper explores the relationship between the Baroque and leibnizianism, focusing mainly on two images: the two-storied house and the fold.
Abstract: I n this fascinating but sometimes baffling book, the reader engages with a series of conditionals like the following: "If [the psychiatrist] Clerimbault manifests a delirium, it is because he discovers the tiny hallucinatory perceptions of ether addicts in the folds of clothing" (p.38). "If Leibniz's principles [of identity and sufficient reason] appear to us as cries, it is because each one signals the presence of a class of beings that are themselves crying and draw attention to themselves by these cries ..... (p. 44). Deleuze's study is concerned with Leibniz and with leibnizianism; with the Baroque considered as a historical period and with the baroque considered as a persistent impulse in architecture, decoration, and in human thinking and system construction. Baroque and baroque are explorations, in his view, of curvilinearity, and Deleuze explores Leibniz's use of mathematical analogies from topology, projective geometry and the calculus. But his attention in the book is mainly fixed on two Leibnizian images. The first image is that of the two-storied house, typically represented in baroque painting by an angelic realm in the upper half of the picture hovering above the human realm. In Leibniz' s writings, this translates into the world of matter (a seething, frothing, turbulent, unconscious mass of tiny beings) and the world of intelligent, self-conscious spirits on the upper level. The second image is that of the fold, which appears in the pleats and draperies of Baroque costume, sculpture, and interior decoration, and which reappears in Leibniz's mind-as-folded curtain, in his enveloped organisms, preformed under folds, and in the continuum, from whose recesses ever more numbers or particles can be pulled out. In clothing, waves, the brain, pleats of all sorts, surface disappears into interior. Deconstruction! But is it philosophy? Yes! Though Deleuze pulls his comparison-objects out of every comer of contemporary French culture, they are never arbitrary, and the book is focused clearly on its subject. Here are three reasons to buy it and read it in addition to its charm: (1) It contains several valuable discussions of traditional problems in new terms: e.g., Leibniz's elusive notion offreedom, which Deleuze tries to explain in terms of the notion of "amplitude"; and the problem of why there are bodies at all-why a "separate" monadology is needed together with a theory of animated matter.
