Vince Lombardi, the greatest head coach in professional football history, began his journey towards greatness as a high school chemistry and physics teacher in 1939. The core principles he developed for eight years in an Englewood, New Jersey science classroom helped provide the foundation for his legendary Green Bay Packers, winning five NFL championship titles during a seven-year period (1961-1967). Dave Pushkin, a former football player-turned-chemistry and physics professor for 25 years, was greatly influenced by Lombardi's core principles, developing his own teaching practices from these principles as well as cognitive and curricular theories. This book presents an intellectual merging between Lombardi's principles with respect to football and educational theory, philosophy, research and practice. The result is a broader and deeper vision of how science can be taught at the high school and college levels.
