Perceptions of Immigrant Students on the Absorption Process in an Israeli Physical Education and Sport College
About a million former Soviet Union (FSU) and 60,000 Ethiopian immigrants have arrived in Israel over the last three decades, most in the past 10 years or so. Their presence has not only altered dramatically the demographic landscape of Israel, but has created enormous and varied challenges for public agencies and institutions. This study investigated the perceptions of the absorption process of FSU and Ethiopian immigrant students enrolled in a physical education and sport College. The two cohorts were selected because they represent significant immigrant populations in Israel and together they comprise a large segment of immigrant students in the College. The students were asked if the study of physical education and sport facilitated their integration experiences in any unique sense. Three approaches to absorption were examined: (a) an assimilation approach, (b) an integration approach and (c) a multicultural or pluralist approach. Qualitative research methods were utilised. FSU and Ethiopianstudents in this investigation indicated that their study of physical education and sport at the College level contributed positively to their absorption experiences. Most felt disenfranchised in specific situations in the physical education and sport programme, while in other circumstances their immigrant status was negligible. The experiencesof these students at the College parallel a trend in Israeli society toward a multicultural or pluralist approach to the absorption of immigrants.

Sport-crazy Australia embodies in the public imagination a ‘fair go’ ethos, giving everyone an equal opportunity to participate regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, or religion. At the same time, sport can be seen by others to be the last bastion of male power, which can make sport participation difficult for those perceived to be or who are gay or lesbian. Homophobic attitudes and discriminatory behavior are also prevalent in other public settings, especially in schools. We examine the nature and impact of homophobia, especially on young people; then we discuss examples of curriculum materials and intervention strategies that can be used by teachers to promote sexuality inclusive teaching and learning in university or college level physical education and sport studies programs.
