Course Description
This course is an examination of factors that influence and determine personal health and safety.
Course Purpose
The main purpose of this course is to present scientifically based, up to date health related information in an accessible format by involving and educating students to take responsibility for their health and well being and instill a sense of competence and personal power in themselves in order to realize that everyone has the ability to monitor, understand and affect his or her health.
Conceptual Framework
The operation of the Professional Education Unit is founded on four thematic processes: 1. Commitment to Social Justice; 2. Collaboration & Strategic Partnerships; 3. Clinical Practice; and 4. Integration of Digital Media. The PEU employs these processes to prepare its teacher and leadership candidates to become Transformative Teachers & Leaders. The Unit seeks to develop candidates’ knowledge, skills, and dispositions in alignment with the Pillars of Effective Practice for the 21st Century Educator. These pillars are: 1. Professional Expertise (Pedagogy & Content Knowledge); 2. Critical Inquiry; 3. Cultural Competence; and 4. Reflective Practice. Program faculty draw upon a legacy of excellence and a commitment to teaching, research, and service in order to provide the highest quality of instruction and learning experiences for teacher and leadership candidates.

Program Mission Statement
The Physical Education Teacher Program prepares professionals to teach students in K - 12 physical education programs in addition to directing youth in intramural and athletic programs. Physical educators provide leadership in a variety of school-based roles. Professional preparation in physical education emphasizes the development of candidates who will model pedagogical effectiveness and engage in active leadership roles in physical activity/health for schools and community organizations. Therefore pre-professional course work must include anatomy and physiology, physiology of exercise, care and prevention of sport injuries, kinesiology and motor behavior. Pre-professionals must be able to demonstrate an appropriate level fitness and consistently improve in skillfulness as they engage in sport and other physical activities. Course work offerings to accomplish maintenance of fitness and improve skillful sport play are physical conditioning, weight lifting, water exercise, martial arts, golf, and, tennis.
More specifically pre-professional also are required to courses related to diverse learner, educational technology, TESOL, reading and classroom management and assessment. Physical education pedagogical course work includes curriculum and adapted physical education, teaching movement education, teaching sport skills, fitness education, theory and practice of coaching and administration of physical education and sport programs. Pre-professionals are involved in school experiences, field experiences and an internship.
The core learning objectives of the Physical Education Program are correlated to NASPE's Standards for Initial Programs in Physical Education Teacher Education, Subject Matter Content Standards for Florida's Teachers: K-12 Physical Education, College of Education and Human Services Conceptual Framework, as well as Florida's Accomplished Practices for Teachers at the pre-professional level: AP 1 Instructional Design and Lesson Planning, AP 2 Learning environment, AP 3 Instructional Delivery and Facilitation, AP 4 Assessment, AP 5 Continuous Professional Improvement, AP 6 Professional Responsibility and Ethical Conduct.

Florida Educator Accomplished Practices (FEAPs)
1. ASSESSMENT
1. The preprofessional teacher collects and uses data gathered from a variety of sources. These sources include both traditional and alternate assessment strategies. Furthermore, the teacher can identify and match the students’ instructional plans with their cognitive, social, linguistic, cultural, emotional, and physical needs.
CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT
3.1 The preprofessional teacher realizes that she/he is in the initial stages of a lifelong learning process and that self-reflection is one of the key components of that process. While her/his concentration is, of necessity, inward and personal, the role of colleagues and school-based improvement activities increases as time passes. The teacher’s continued professional improvement is characterized by self-reflection, working with immediate colleagues and teammates, and meeting the goals of a personal professional development plan.
8. KNOWLEDGE OF SUBJECT MATTER
8.1 The preprofessional teacher has a basic understanding of the subject field and is beginning to understand that the subject is linked to other disciplines and can be applied to real-world integrated settings. The teacher’s repertoire of teaching skills includes a variety of means to assist student acquisition of new knowledge and skills using that knowledge.
10. PLANNING
10.1 Recognizing the importance of setting high expectations for all students, the preprofessional teacher works with other professionals to design learning experiences that meet students’ needs and interests. The teacher candidate continually seeks advice/information from appropriate resources (including feedback), interprets the information, and modifies her/his plans appropriately. Planned instruction incorporates a creative environment and utilizes varied and motivational strategies and multiple resources for providing comprehensible instruction for all students. Upon reflection, the teacher continuously refines outcome assessment and learning experiences.
12. TECHNOLOGY
12.1 The preprofessional teacher uses technology as available at the school site and as appropriate to the learner. She/he provides students with opportunities to actively use technology and facilitates access to the use of electronic resources. The teacher also uses technology to manage, evaluate, and improve instruction.

Course Policies
Absence and tardiness – The University allows three absences, either excused or unexcused, before you may be dropped from the course for failing to attend. Since no make-up quizzes or exams will be given, your grade will suffer if you miss more than the one quiz or exam you are allowed to drop. Be on time to class. Tardiness is usually disruptive to others in the class so please be in your seat when class begins. If you are tardy to a quiz, the questions will not be repeated and those questions will be counted wrong. If you are late to an exam, you are likely to miss the vocabulary portion of the exam and it will not repeat for those who are tardy so the words you missed will be counted wrong.
Violation of academic honesty – Those who are accused of violating academic honesty will be sent to the Dean for enforcement of regulations regarding standards of student conduct. No credit will be given to work produced dishonestly.
Accommodations For Students With Disabilities - The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 requires that the University make reasonable accommodations to persons with disabilities, as defined in the Act. Students who believe they qualify under the ADA guidelines for these accommodations should approach FAMU’s “Learning Development and Evaluation Center” to discuss such considerations. The LDEC will then contact each of your instructors to inform of them of how they may help you meet your academic goals.
Need for assistance – If you need assistance with course work or have special needs or circumstances, please advise your instructor of your needs as soon as they arise. Office hours for individual assistance and other special services are available for those who seek them.
Discrimination and Harassment - Discriminatory and harassing behaviors are reprehensible and will not be tolerated at Florida A&M University. They subvert the mission of the University and the COE program, violate the professional code of ethics, and threaten the careers, educational experiences and well being of students, faculty and staff. The University will not tolerate behaviors between or among members of the University community, which create an unacceptable working environment. Similarly, the Instructor will tolerate neither discriminatory nor harassing behaviors between or among students enrolled in the course.
