Course Description
In EveryBODY Wins: Adapted Physical Education, you will gain an understanding of disability and how it pertains to teaching individuals with disabilities in the physical education environment. In addition, you will become familiar with the related legal requirements for these individuals. You will learn about and apply curriculum differentiation techniques to adjust content, instructional strategies, environment, equipment, and assessment methods in anticipation of student need. Course activities, readings, videos and assignments in this course will highlight inclusive practices.
NOTE: Although there are some similarities between the video correspondence version of this course (EDMA 174) and this online version (EDMA 253), they are, in fact, different courses. Thus, if you took EDMA 174 - Adapted Physical Education: EveryBODY Wins previously, you may take this course as well, though we would recommend that you seek prior approval from your school district or appropriate licensing agency, prior to registering.
