*Apologies for cross posting* School Health Education and Promotion: Current Approaches and Critical Perspectives Special issue call for papers from Health Education Deadline: 30 May 2016 Guest Editors: Professor Venka Simovska[1] & Dr Deana Leahy[2] The proposed Special Issue 'School Health Education and Promotion: Current Approaches and Critical Perspectives' will bring together educational researchers and scholars from across the world to consider current curricula, policies and practices related to school-based health education and promotion and related professional development of teachers. We envisage the papers will draw from theoretical and empirical research as well as cases from practice to engage with the following kinds of questions: * Which approaches to health and wellbeing are currently being developed and endorsed within school-based health education and health promotion curricula in different contexts? * How are health education and promotion in schools currently being shaped by different socio-cultural, political and educational matters? * How are teachers translating contemporary health education and health promotion into their schools and classrooms and what approaches, theories, and/or pedagogies are they drawing on? * How do teachers observe and assess student learning in health education? * How is the professional development of teachers preparing them to teach health education and health promotion for the context in which they work? Submission Procedure: In the first instance please submit your abstracts to Dr Deana Leahy, Faculty of Education, Monash University, email: [log in to unmask] by 30 May 2016.
