During the 1974-1975 basketball season, Roland Tharp and I spent many afternoons observing and coding Coach John Wooden as he conducted practice on the UCLA campus. The results were published in 1976 in Psychology Today (Tharp & Gallimore, 1976).
In 2004, The Sports Psychologist journal published a followup to the original study including new materials and interpretation of the original findings (Gallimore & Tharp, 2004).
Swen and I summarized the results of 30 years of investigating Coach Wooden’s teaching principles and practices in You Haven’t Taught Until They Have Learned (Nater & Gallimore, 2005)
