Abstract
Background: Although social and emotional learning remains a leading practice in modern education, racial inequity in education remains an issue through punitive disciplinary action. With the increase in school-wide social and emotional learning initiatives, it is evident that we must form a collaborative student-centered approach to discipline as well, to provide an equitable learning experience for all students. This review explores the scope of literature surrounding the use of a transformative approach to social and emotional learning through incorporating social justice practices, i.e. restorative practices, in the Physical Education classroom and or alternative K-12 physical activity setting, to reach prosocial or physical outcomes.
Methods: A scoping review was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) checklist and guidance of the Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcomes and Study type (PICOS) tool. All English, peer-reviewed empirical articles published before December 2022 were included in the study.
Results: A total of 3,125 articles were identified. After the deletion of duplicate articles, 3,033 articles were left to be screened. Following a 3-step screening process and a backwards search, 21 articles were analyzed for full-text review. 6 of the articles were determined to be explicit to the topic, as the remaining 15 articles conceptualized comparable practices and interventions.
Conclusion: The literature surrounding the use of restorative practices in physical activity settings is limited, however, the scope of evidence available promotes the practice as a promising approach in lessening the racial inequity gap in disciplinary practice and demonstrates the ability to apply practices across contexts for positive effects on student empowerment, accountability, and academic success.
