    Prerequisite: BIO 101 or permission of instructor Offered: Typically every Short Term A brief overview of the mechanism, prevention, management, and rehabilitation of athletic injuries. Practical experience includes the performance of simple taping procedures to the major joints of the body, along with the recognition of selected health problems related to athletics. In addition, time will be set aside for students to qualify for American Red Cross CPR Certification. NOTE: Noncredit for students who completed PED 309. 1 Course
  • 1.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: PEH 100 or permission of instructor Offered: Typically alternate Spring Terms (next offered Spring 2010) This course will focus on developing knowledge of current concepts and practices in adapted physical education. Course topics will include assessment, planning, and implementation of physical education activities for people with unique needs and abilities. The topic of working with special-needs populations will be approached from a developmental perspective using a "person-first" model. Students will be expected to acquire the skills necessary to understand typical and atypical motor performance, assess motor skills and fitness, evaluate performance, and create goals and objectives that can be implemented. Students will learn about the history of Adapted Physical Education and the current legislation in the field, as well as the legal framework for the Individual Education Program (IEP). 1 Course
  • 1.00 - 2.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: Determined by instructor Offered: Typically as student interest and faculty availability allow A course designed to meet the particular interests of student and faculty. Topics vary from year to year. See course description in the "Schedule of Classes." 1/2 to 1 Course
  • 1.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: Berea College Dance experience or permission of instructor Offered: Typically alternate years (next offered Short Term 2010) Students will use movement improvisation to explore themes and ideas, will use movement discovered through improvisation to create choreography, and will engage in thoughtful reflection on the work they are doing. Arts Perspective. 1 Course
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: PEH 100 and intermediate swimming proficiency OR permission of instructor Offered: Typically alternate years (next offered Spring 2010) This course guides refinement of swimming skills selected to increase preparedness for Lifeguard training. This course provides instruction of American Red Cross (ARC) Lifeguard Training skills (also including CPR for the Professional Rescuer, use of an Automated External Defibrillator and First Aid). 1/4 Course
  • 1.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: BIO 101 Offered: Typically alternate years (first offered Spring 2010) The focus of this course is the study of basic principles of motor learning, motor control, and motor development as they relate to human voluntary movement. The course will involve applications of principles through observations and assessment of motor behavior and motor development from learning to performance (acquisition of skill), throughout the life span, from infancy to older adulthood. 1 Course
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: PEH 100 and PED 224 or permission of instructor Offered: Typically alternate Fall Terms (next offered Fall 2010) Designed for the student who has had some previous experience in Modern Dance (or has taken PED 224), this course will continue to explore the body as an instrument of expression and how to broaden one's movement range in doing so. The course will consist of experiences in body awareness, technique, improvisation/exploration, and performance. 1/4 Course
  • 1.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: Completion or waiver of MAT 012; and BIO 101 Offered: Typically alternate Fall Terms (first offered Fall 2009) The goal of this course is to provide a foundation of knowledge to allow students to be able to apply the content to optimize human performance in sports and physical activity. The content will include an integration of sub-disciplines, such as Anatomical Kinesiology, Biomechanics, and Exercise Physiology. The course will be divided into two parts, the first being basic introductions to the content and the second being a more detailed study of the content as it applies to Aerobic Sports, Intermittent Activities, and Anaerobic Sports and activities. Throughout the course, students will be required to write exercise prescriptions, write technical papers (laboratory write-ups), interpret literature of the disciplines, and understand statistical methodology. This course serves as a prerequisite to Integrated Biomechanics and Exercise Physiology II. It is a required course for all Physical Education majors and recommended to any student interested in studying the science of movement. 1 Course
  • 1.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: PED 335 and its prerequisites Offered: Typically alternate Spring Terms (first offered Spring 2010) This course is a continuation of Integrated Biomechanics and Exercise Physiology I. The goal of the course is more advanced applications of the principles and concepts learned in the previous course. Emphasis will be placed on the clinical aspects of the sub-disciplines including the areas of cardiac, pulmonary, metabolic, orthopedic and other prominent disease conditions, and appropriate activity interventions. Throughout this course, students will gain experience in using the HU-M-AN movement analysis and Dartfish software programs, and in creating and presenting in-depth material to external audiences (campus-wide, community, naive audiences). This course is required for Physical Education majors. Students who are interested in working in medical rehabilitation settings are encouraged to take this course. 1 Course
  • 1.00 - 2.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: Junior standing and successful completion of three PED major courses Offered: No plans to offer this course again in near future (a new course is being developed) An introduction to principles and techniques of leadership and management in wellness, recreational, and physical-education settings. Students will learn fundamental concepts for program planning, development, implementation, and assessment; board development; community relations, program marketing, and development of a participant base; fiscal management; facilities; equipment; and resource planning, acquisition, and evaluation. The class takes a practical, hands-on approach. 1/2 Course
