Evaluating the Impact of Content Knowledge Instruction on Preservice Teacher Content Knowledge of Volleyball and Basketballhttps://journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/jtpe/45/1/article-p118.xmlChey, W. S., Ward, P., Meyerhoff, S., Watanabe, R., Dillon, L., Arroyo-Rojas, F., & Trainer, S. (2026). Evaluating the Impact of Content Knowledge Instruction on Preservice Teacher Content Knowledge of Volleyball and Basketball. Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 45(1), 118-128. This article targeted Physical Education Teacher Education (PETE) coursework significantly improves preservice teachers' subject mastery in volleyball and basketball, though posttest scores only reached moderate proficiency. The research indicates that while targeted instruction boosts specialized content knowledge—particularly error analysis and task sequencing—it should be prioritized over general activity courses for effective teacher training. We think this article is really thought provoking if you work in the PETE space and defiantly food for thought about what we are doing to prepare our students.

Peter “Chappy” Meyerhoff's life is the definition of redemption. At 15, he was addicted to meth. At 18, he was sentenced to 12 years in prison. Inside, he became a “shot caller,” running with power and pride—until it all came crashing down.After over a decade behind bars and nearly a year in solitary confinement, Peter walked out of prison with nothing but a decision: to never go back. With no high school diploma, no connections, and no plan, he rebuilt from the ground up—turning his pain into purpose.Today, Peter is a motivational speaker, author, and host of the Roll Call with Chappy podcast. He uses his platform to speak truth about addiction, incarceration, mindset, and faith—helping others find freedom long before the gates ever open.This is the story of a man who lost everything, found himself, and built a new life from the ashes.

This show has been flagged as Explicit by the host. Quick-Glance Summary I walk you through an MIT experiment where 54 EEG-capped volunteers wrote essays three ways: pure brainpower, classic search, and ChatGPT assistance. Brain-only writers lit up the most neurons and produced the freshest prose; the ChatGPT crowd churned out near-identical essays, remembered little, and racked up what the researchers dub cognitive debt : the interest you pay later for outsourcing thought today. A bonus “switch” round yanked AI away from the LLM devotees (cue face-plant) and finally let the brain-first team play with the toy (they coped fine), proving skills first, tools second. I spiced the tale with calculator nostalgia, a Belgian med-exam cheating fiasco, and Professor Felienne's forklift-in-the-gym metaphor to land one mantra: *scaffolds beat shortcuts*. We peeked at tech “enshittification” once investors demand returns, whispered “open-source” as the escape hatch, and I dared you to try a two-day test—outline solo, draft with AI, revise solo, then check what you still remember. Net takeaway: keep AI on a leash; let thinking drive, tools navigate . If you think I'm full of digital hot air, record your own rebuttal and prove it. Resources MIT study MIT Media Lab. (2025).

Joachim Meyerhoff erzählt in seinen Romanen so anrührend von den Fallstricken seines Lebens, dass jeder Band ein Bestseller wird. Auf der Bühne schlüpft er ebenso glaubhaft in immer neue Rollen. Doch wer ist der wahre Meyerhoff, was ist seine wahre Geschichte? Oder gibt es ihn gar nie in echt? Joachim Meyerhoff gehört zu den erfolgreichsten Theaterschauspielern im deutschsprachigen Raum. Auf den grossen Bühnen verkörpert er die unterschiedlichsten Rollen, zugleich erzählt er in bislang sechs autobiografischen Büchern unter dem Titel «Alle Toten fliegen hoch» anrührend und voller Selbstironie von seinem eigenen Leben – oder inszeniert er sein Leben vielleicht nur als grosses Verwirrspiel für alle, die nach seinem wahren Leben fragen? Gibt es das wahre Leben überhaupt – spielen wir nicht immer eine Rolle? Barbara Bleisch trifft das Ausnahmetalent, das sowohl auf der Theaterbühne wie im Literaturbetrieb brilliert, zum Gespräch über das Leben als Spiel, über Rollen und Realitäten, über Spiel und Ernst. Und darüber, warum wir uns selbst eine Geschichte erzählen, die wir als unsere Biografie verteidigen.

In dieser Folge von „Edle Federn“ spricht Juli Zeh mit dem Schriftsteller und Schauspieler Joachim Meyerhoff über seinen aktuellen Roman: „Man kann auch in die Hölle fallen“. Sich mitten in einer Sinn - und Lebenskrise befindend, schildert er darin liebevoll einen mehrwöchigen Aufenthalt bei seiner über 80-jährigen Mutter in Schleswig-Holstein.Zwischen Theater und Leinwand: Meyerhoff hat Engagements an den renommiertesten Bühnen im deutschsprachigen Raum und wurde bereits drei Mal in seiner Karriere als „Schauspieler des Jahres“ ausgezeichnet. Seit 2011 schreibt er an seinem autobiografischen Romanzyklus „Alle Toten fliegen hoch“, von dem bislang sechs Teile erschienen sind – und im Falle des Bandes „Wann wird es endlich wieder so, wie es nie war“ für das Kino verfilmt wurde.In dieser Folge Edle Federn spricht er unter anderem über Trauer als Antrieb für seine spät begonnene Tätigkeit als Schriftsteller und warum Menschen ab 60 in unserer Gesellschaft durchaus als Rolemodel taugen.

Ich liebe es ja, gelegentlich den ausgetreten Weg der gewohnten Umgebung zu verlassen, um neues Terrain zu erkunden. Die Frage stellt sich natürlich, ob man mit einem Theater- und Literatur Kapazunder wie Joachim Meyerhoff über sein Ding redet, oder zwingt man ihn in die eigene Welt? Selten zuvor war meine Haltung vor einem Gespräch so ergebnisoffen, wie vor dem Gespräch mit Joachim Meyerhoff. Er hat es mir nicht schwer gemacht. Denn auch er ist einer, der sich traut Türen aufzumachen, ohne zu wissen, was dahinter auf ihn wartet. Denn das Leben wird erst aufregend, wenn man neue Wege beschreitet. Eine wunderbare, wenn auch nicht ganz umriskante Grundeinstellung. Viel Spaß mit meinem Gespräch mit dem Schauspieler und Autor Joachim Meyerhoff und auch an dieser Stelle einen herzlichen Dank an Matthias Jakisic, der uns beide zusammengebracht hat!

Leibold, Christoph www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Fazit

„Nichts ödet mich mehr an, als wenn ich irgendwas absolviere“, sagt Joachim Meyerhoff und sucht deshalb die „Selbstüberraschung“. Dass er als Schauspieler und Autor autofiktionaler Romane sein Publikum begeistert, empfindet er als Geschenk. Tanja Runow www.deutschlandfunk.de, Zwischentöne

Joachim Meyerhoff kämpft sich durch Siege und Niederlagen als ungehemmter Schauspieler auf deutschsprachigen Theaterbühnen wie am Deutschen Schauspielhaus Hamburg, am Wiener Burgtheater, an der Berliner Schaubühne und an den Münchner Kammerspielen. Mehrfach für seine Theaterarbeit ausgezeichnet, hat Meyerhoff sich auch einen Namen als Schriftsteller gemacht. Bekannt wurde er mit seiner mehrteiligen Autobiografie "Alle Toten fliegen hoch", die zwischen Tragik und hinreißender Komik vom Leben seiner Familie erzählt. Auch seine Romane wurden mit zahlreichen Preisen ausgezeichnet, zuletzt 2024 mit dem Kasseler Literaturpreis für grotesken Humor. In "NDR Kultur à la carte" spricht Joachim Meyerhoff mit Katja Weise über seinen jüngsten Roman: "Man kann auch in die Höhe fallen", über seine Arbeit auf der Bühne, über Literatur und dem ganz normalen, immer wieder verrückten Alltag.

Laura de Weck, Thomas Strässle, Philipp Tingler und Adriana Altaras diskutieren über «Kein Grund, gleich so rumzuschreien» von Martin Suter / Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre, «Man kann auch in die Höhe fallen» von Joachim Meyerhoff, «Pi mal Daumen» von Alina Bronsky sowie «Schilten» von Hermann Burger. Die beiden Schriftsteller Martin Suter und Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre verbindet eine innige Freundschaft. In ihrem zweiten Gesprächsband «Kein Grund, gleich so rumzuschreien» unterhalten sich die beiden offen über Schmerzhaftes und Verluste. Dabei spielen Humor als Waffe und Lachen als Befreiung eine grosse Rolle. Schauspieler Joachim Meyerhoff ist präzise in der Sprache, immer mit aufblitzendem Witz. Dasselbe gilt für seine autobiografischen Bestseller-Romane, in denen es meist um sein Aufwachsen und seine Familie geht. Im neuen Buch «Man kann auch in die Höhe fallen» beschreibt Meyerhoff anekdotisch und mit grosser Situationskomik, wie er sich durch einen Langzeitbesuch bei seiner Mutter aus einer Lebenskrise befreit. «Pi mal Daumen» von Alina Bronsky erzählt von einer ungewöhnlichen Freundschaft: Ein hochbegabter Junge und eine unterschätzte Frau begegnen sich in der Welt der Mathematik. Dieser Roman stand ganz oben auf der SRF-Bestenliste und wurde als Lieblingsbuch der unabhängigen Buchhandlungen 2024 ausgezeichnet. Leichtfüssig erzählt Alina Bronsky von einer Begegnung über soziale Grenzen hinweg. Der Roman «Schilten» von Hermann Burger gehört zum Originellsten, was die Schweizer Literaturgeschichte zu bieten hat. Marcel Reich-Ranicki feierte Burger als «einen der skurrilsten Humoristen der deutschen Literatur». Dennoch hat der Schriftsteller, der sich 1989 das Leben nahm, nicht die Bekanntheit, die ihm gebührt. Nun lässt sich sein wichtigster Roman, der Reales mit Surrealem verwebt, neu entdecken. Die Bücher der Sendung sind: – Martin Suter / Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre: «Kein Grund, gleich so rumzuschreien» (Diogenes); – Joachim Meyerhoff: «Man kann auch in die Höhe fallen» (Kiepenheuer & Witsch); – Alina Bronsky: «Pi mal Daumen» (Kiepenheuer & Witsch); und – Hermann Burger: «Schilten» (Nagel und Kimche). Gast der Sendung ist die Schauspielerin, Regisseurin und Autorin Adriana Altaras.

Prison can be a challenging environment, but it can also provide an opportunity for self-reflection and growth. Relapse is a common part of the recovery process, but it's important to learn from it and make a commitment to sobriety. Spirituality and a belief in a higher power can play a role in recovery, even for those who were initially skeptical. Helping others and staying connected to a supportive community are crucial for maintaining long-term sobriety.

On Episode 151 of the "Hell Has an Exit" podcast, host Teddy Tarantino sits down with Peter "Chappy" Meyerhoff,  best-selling author, motivational speaker, podcast host, loving husband, and devoted father. Chappy's life took an unexpected turn when he was falsely accused of a crime during his high school years, leading him to drop out of school and fall in with a troubled crowd. His seemingly idyllic upbringing was abruptly disrupted, setting in motion a series of events that would shape the course of his life. As a teenager, Chappy became ensnared in the grip of addiction, spiraling into a world of chaos that involved car thefts, house robberies, and, ultimately, a 12-year prison sentence. Behind bars, he navigated terrain of prison politics, emerging as a formidable figure in the system. His life was marred by violence and drug abuse, culminating in a harrowing 11 months spent in solitary confinement. However, upon his release, Chappy made a life-altering decision to channel his pain into a relentless pursuit of success. He emerged from the shadows of his past and began to transform his life. He is dedicated to helping individuals overcome addiction, transform their lives, and reduce the recidivism rate by demonstrating the incredible possibilities that await when one possesses unwavering determination and refuses to make excuses. Join us in Episode 151 as we delve into Chappy's gripping narrative, a testament to the indomitable human spirit and the power of resilience. Don't miss the opportunity to witness a story of redemption, transformation, and boundless potential.

Have you asked yourself what it takes to transform your life against all odds? Curious about the mindset of someone who went from incarceration to inspiring others with a top podcast?   In this podcast episode, I had the privilege of speaking with Peter Meyerhoff, the host of "Roll Call with Chappy." Peter, who faced challenges like incarceration, emerged stronger, creating a successful podcast that reaches incarcerated individuals nationwide. We explored various topics, from setting ambitious goals and overcoming setbacks to his unique workout strategies and dietary insights. Peter's candidness offered a raw and real perspective on personal development and the unexpected paths life can take.   Peter shared his philosophy on setting ambitious goals, emphasizing that one never knows their capabilities until they try. Reflecting on his own experiences, he pointed out the importance of reassessing goals over time, avoiding self-imposed limits, and continuously seeking personal growth. The conversation flowed into fitness, where Peter stressed the significance of strategic workouts, moving away from heavy lifting, and adopting high-intensity training. He opened up about his routine, mixing strength and cardio, while acknowledging the mental health benefits of pushing himself physically.   Diving into coaching strategies, Peter suggested focusing on exercises with a lower risk of injury for virtual clients, incorporating cables and emphasizing good form. He also touched upon his newfound appreciation for meal prep, urging people to simplify their diets by outsourcing nutrition through reliable meal delivery services. The discussion expanded to the psychological aspects of workouts, emphasizing the need to keep oneself busy in the gym to avoid negative thoughts and potential quitting triggers.   Key Takeaways: ·         Challenge yourself with audacious goals and reassess them regularly. ·         Prioritize strategic workouts over heavy lifting for sustainable fitness. ·         Simplify nutrition with meal planning, and stay mentally engaged during workouts.   Resources: ·         Peter Meyerhoff's website: petermeyerhoff.com ·         Peter Meyerhoff's podcast: "Roll Call with Chappy" ·         Peter Meyerhoff's book: “Against All Odds” ·         "The Million Dollar Body Method" by Nate Palmer: http://getnatesbook.com/

Peter Meyerhoff is a rare individual—a best-selling author, motivational speaker, podcaster, sober clothing company owner, prison curriculum app developer, husband, and father.   During his teenage years, Peter Meyerhoff became entangled in a life of hard drugs, leading to car theft and burglaries, and culminating in a 12-year prison sentence. While incarcerated, he became deeply involved in prison politics, assuming a role of influence. However, his life became consumed by violence and drug addiction, resulting in nearly a year spent in solitary confinement.   Upon his release, he transformed his pain into a relentless pursuit of success. Leveraging the mental resilience he cultivated during his time in solitary confinement, Peter now aspires to inspire others through his motivational speeches, aid people in achieving sobriety, and combat recidivism by demonstrating the boundless possibilities that come with determination and accountability.

Is academia beyond mere reform? How do we engage with wisdom, knowledge, and learning without the shibboleth of "education" - I talk with all of this and more with radical and researcher Eli Meyerhoff!

At some point all men find themselves fighting an inner war. Do not run from these battles; do not seek peace. For your character will be forged through these wars. Your integrity will chastened through their fires. Your will shall become emboldened from these campaigns. Do not seek the softness of peace that a weaker man would run and hide into. Instead purposly seek out the fight and sprint towards the conflict that will set you apart from all others. Become the shelter and safe haven for those in need, become the protection and shield for the weak, become the servant and steward of all. To become peace you first must BECOME WAR.

Many people are in prison and don't have anything else to do but be frustrated about the situation. In this episode, Peter shares the incredible story of his life, from a fancy childhood to an unexpected future nightmare in prison.  Listen as he gives insights on the importance of mindset, positive perspective, and faith in God's plan. Overall, this podcast episode offers a powerful and uplifting message of hope and transformation. Peter Meyerhoff is a rare type of person who had the world in his palm as a kid. After high school, he got involved in drugs and was imprisoned for 12 years. After prison, he became successful and made a couple of million dollars. He now owns a sober clothing company and is helping the younger generation not go through the rough pitfalls of life. He aims to motivate people, help people get sober, and change the recidivism rate.   Key Highlights: [00:01 - 05:10] Opening Segment ●        Peter started his life story with a successful childhood until his life changed when he entered high school. ●        He got involved in criminal activities such as stealing cars and breaking into houses to support their drug use. ●        At 18, Peter was falsely accused of stealing $155,000 worth of jewelry and given a 12-year prison sentence for a non-dangerous burglary, which was blamed for influencing other juveniles to commit the crime. [05:11 - 16:10] How Peter Became a Shot Caller ●        Peter talks about how his mindset had shifted after being behind bars for so long. ●        He tells about his life of being in prison and how he gained respect from other prisoners. ●        OGs called Peter “Chappy” in prison because he was addicted to Chapstick.  [16:11 - 22:27] The Prison System ●        Peter is seen as a tough guy who ran yards in jails, leading to people talking about him as tough. ●        Being in solitary confinement taught him mental strength, and he wants to help others do the same by developing a new prison curriculum. ●        Peter talks about getting in trouble while he is in prison, like stuff that wasn't allowed, fancy shoes, and sunglasses that cause him to stay longer in prison due to tickets. [22:28 - 41:47] Switching Mindset ●        Peter put things into perspective when he read a book about a little girl who had been kidnapped for 20 years by a pedophile. ●        He also shares that he used to feel life was terrible but realized he could improve things by working hard toward success. ●        He talks about the business side of things, like making money on football pools or selling cars. ●        Confidence helped him get ahead because most people don't have confidence, which keeps them from succeeding. ●        Peter used to tell himself positive things and put notes up to remind him. He thinks it's important not to give up when things get tough because that makes a person strong. [41:48 - 51:37] Closing Segment ●     He talked about a podcast called Roll Call with Chappy, where his first episode is about interviewing his parents. ●     Roll Call with Chappy is now an approved podcast for tablets in the prison system. ●     Peter recommends reading the book by Jaycee Dugard to help change people's perspectives on their difficult situations. ●     He also promotes his book, "Against All Odds,” about the biography of his life. The last chapter is about acquiring mental strength and switching mindset from negative to positive thoughts.  ●     At the end of the book, he writes about teaching inmates how to be successful through prison curriculum.   Key Quotes: “I have an attitude that like if people tell me I can't do something, I promise you, I'll do.” - Peter Meyerhoff   “You can rewire your brain and program your brain to do anything you want.

This week we are re-airing an interview from November 10th, 2019, by Scott Branson with Eli Meyerhoff about his book “Beyond Education: Radical Studying for Another World”. In this book, Meyerhoff “traces how key elements of education emerged from histories of struggles in opposition to alternative modes of study bound up with different modes of world-making. Taking inspiration from Black Lives Matter, Occupy Wall Street, and Indigenous resurgence projects, he charts a new course for movements within, against, and beyond the university as we know it.” and this quote is from the University of Minnesota webpage, who also published his book. This interview covers a lot of issues such as the historical and colonial construction of what we think of today as education. In this interview, Scott and Eli talk about his book, the vast terrain that the book covers, experiences in academia when one is operating as politically radical, and some alternatives to education that we can see and experience in the world around us. Eli Meyerhoff can be found at elimeyerhoff.com and the Abolition University at abolition.university. . ... . .. Featured Tracks: LSD – School's For Fools Suburban Studs – I Hate School

Brief summary of episode:Jonathon Heyward is forging a career as one of the most exciting conductors on the international scene.

In March 2022, Jonathon made his debut with Baltimore Symphony Orchestra in three performances that included the first-ever performance of Shostakovich's Symphony No. 15. Quickly re-engaged, he returned in April to lead a Benefit Concert for Ukraine at the Meyerhoff.Born in Charleston, South Carolina, Jonathon began his musical training as a cellist at the age of ten and started conducting while still at school. He studied conducting at the Boston Conservatory of Music, where he became assistant conductor of the prestigious institution's opera department and of the Boston Opera Collaborative, and received postgraduate lessons from Sian Edwards at London's Royal Academy of Music. Before leaving the Academy, he was appointed assistant conductor of the Hallé Orchestra, where he was mentored by Sir Mark Elder, and became Music Director of the Hallé Youth Orchestra. His debut with the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain at the 2021 BBC Proms earned five-star reviews and was hailed by British newspaper The Guardian as ‘an unforgettable showcase of high-energy collaboration'.Jonathon's commitment to education and community outreach work deepened during his three years with the Hallé and has flourished since he arrived in post as Chief Conductor of the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie in January 2021.

Peter “Chappy” Meyerhoff sits down with his brother Matt Jr.. The younger Meyerhoff looks back on the horror of witnessing his older brother's descent into drugs and thievery, while feeling powerless to help since Matt was only an 8th grader at the time.Matt remembers endless nights filled with tears following Peter's sentencing and enduring those 12 long years with nothing but hope in his heart.He recalls Peter's release and the grand welcome he prepared for his brother, including a festive gathering of family and friends and a brand new flatscreen TV.This, of course, wasn't the end of the darkest chapter of the Meyerhoffs' lives. Matt then reflects on those first few moments after hearing the news that Peter overdosed on drugs and his initial doubts that Peter would ever become sober.Finally, Matt assures Peter that giving up on his brother has never—and will never—become a possibility in his mind.Soon after Peter's decision to quit the car business right on the heels of his best month, Matt could see that there would be no limits to the amount of success and significance that would come Peter's way in the coming years.Topics Discussed: [01:26] Growing up as Peter's brother[03:07] What it was like to see Peter's descent and going to jail for 12 years[07:46] The fear of extensions to Peter's sentence[12:47] Matt reflects on the day Peter was finally released from prison[19:39] The day of Peter's overdose[22:58] Why Matt knew he would never give up on Peter[26:27] Matt's reaction to Peter's decision to quit at the car business after his best monthConnect with Peter Meyerhoff: Website InstagramTikTokFacebookEmail: petermeyerhoff.info@gmail.comKey Quotes:I knew when I didn't die that day that I was saved for a much bigger purpose, and it's to help people save lives. ~ChappyI know you were going to be successful doing whatever the fuck you want.
