This paper was designed to determine the strategies and tactics to engage and train the physical education teachers in the use of an Eastern philosophy to human movement for learning and for the promotion of physical literacy with their students. Five kinds of diffusion-related theories were used to make the strategies and tactics. To do so, four strategies composed of eleven tactics were suggested: the first strategy was exposure, introduction and spread including mass media, pamphlets, specialized web-site, and multiculruralism; the second strategy was to make specialized agency and specialists including role as go-betweens and educational institution; the third strategy was motivation for PE teachers including regular seminar, participant in development of model, and incentives; the last strategy was mandated change including meaning-making opportunities and school-oriented approach. The most important task is to introduce new knowledge, so among the four strategies, the first and second strategies should be first, after then to persuade teachers, the third strategy might be followed. If teacher tend not to want to use the concept of the Eastern philosophy on human movement continuously, despite the attempts by creators to persuade them, the last strategy can be applied. |
