I would like to take this opportunity as the chair of COPETE to welcome you to this Forum. It is going to be a wonderful opportunity for those of us in the profession to share our thoughts, ideas and concerns with each other, and to speak up about those issues that are important to us and to the profession. Thank you to Steve Jefferies for providing us with this "place" to talk. I hope that we use it often and well. Again, welcome, and I hope to read many, if not all (pipe dreams!) of you here!

Dear Colleagues, The Council on Physical Education Teacher Education (COPETE) would like to call your attention to a new award in the field of teacher preparation - the Physical Education Teacher Education Honor Award. The Chicago AAHPERD Convention was the first time this recognition was given by NASPE/COPETE and it honored Dr. Michael Metzler and Dr. Steve Mitchell, Dr. Linda Griffin, and Dr. Judith Oslin. You can find information about their contributions to the profession at the COPETE webpage. [Go to: www.naspeinfo.org point to About Us, select Councils, then select Council on Physical Education Teacher Education COPETE] There is no dearth of outstanding candidates for this award in our field, but COPETE would like to have YOUR input and nominations for consideration. Here is a brief description of the award: This award, given by the Council on Physical Education Teacher Education (COPETE), recognizes and honors exemplary, innovative work that impacts physical education teacher education.
