Study of techniques of consulting in D/APE with the spectrum of individuals involved in the IEP process, including but not limited to: students with disabilities, general physical education teachers, other school professionals and support service personnel, families/parents, peer tutors, and community agencies, to enhance the learning of students with disabilities both within and outside the classroom setting.

The purposes of this course are to expand students¿ awareness of global sport management principles and obtain firsthand experience in international sport through studying abroad. The course will address ethics, marketing, event management, finance, and challenges/issues in international sport management.

Supervised experience in a public school varsity/junior varsity sport setting.

The laboratory portion of this course will require the student to learn, practice, and be assessed on the psychomotor skills learned in HP 542. The application of clinical assessment psychomotor skills will be applied during the supervised clinical experience component of the course. This will provide the student with the opportunity to apply their skills in a real clinical environment on-campus, at small private colleges, at local high schools, in a hospital and clinic settings, and in emergency rooms and ambulance settings while being supervised by a preceptor. This course is designed for graduate athletic training students.

Content is variable and based on special topic.

Students will learn about Sport Tourism Theory and will apply those theoretical concepts through a hands-on experience with a Sport Tourism event. Topics that will be covered include sport tourism management, marketing, sustainability, research and issues/trends as well as the economic, social, and environmental impact of sport tourism.

Assess physiological and activity-related risk factors associated with metabolic syndrome, including compliance with ACSM physical activity guidelines and sedentary time. Critique models for examining metabolic responses to exercise at different domains of exercise intensity. Apply various prescription models for enhancing aerobic power and anaerobic capacity. Examine the role of cytokines for augmenting or attenuating oxidative stress. Conceptualize how exercise or thermoregulation alters peripheral and central vascular control and pressure-volume regulation of the heart.

A study of laboratory experiences, for advanced exercise physiology students, including various anaerobic, body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, lactate threshold, and spirometry assessments.

An in-depth study of the nutritional needs of athletes and other active individuals, including discussion of current research in the area.

Students will gain an understanding of the anatomic and pathologic concepts necessary to assess musculoskeletal injury. The course is designed for athletic training and other health care related students.

This course provides an introduction to the profession of athletic training, as well as an overview of essentials principles of athletic training. Emphasis will be on the history of the profession, career opportunities and job settings; recognition, prevention, and care of athletic injuries; pre-participation physical exams, emergency preparation and procedures, environmental illnesses, tissue healing; proper selection, care, and use of protective equipment, taping, wrapping, bracing procedures. This course is designed for the graduate athletic training student.

Developing curriculum in physical education focusing on current theories and models, factors influencing curriculum, scope and sequence, scheduling, and assessing curricula.

Investigation of advanced concepts in exercise physiology, specifically focusing on neuromuscular physiology, the body's adaptation to resistance training, periodization for strength and power, and application of resistance training concepts to special populations.

Introduction to the concepts of descriptive and inferential statistics, applied and theoretical research, and validity and reliability methods used in the disciplines of physical education, human performance, and exercise science.

This course provides an introduction to both research methodology and statistical concepts in the discipline of human performance. This course focuses on the development of research design and choice of appropriate statistics to address a research question.

Best practices utilizing models of teaching, learning styles, and instructional strategies in physical education.

Hereditary and environmental factors of typical and atypical motor development across the lifespan.

The theory and application of the use of physical therapeutic modalities including cyrotherapy and thermotherapy, ultrasound, phonophoresis, electrical nerve stimulation, iontophoresis, diathermy, intermittent compression, traction, LASER, massage and manual therapies in the treatment of injury/illnesses suffered by athletes and physically active individuals. This course also includes the principles of tissue healing, pain and pain control. This course is designed for athletic training students.

This course will provide the student with the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to rehabilitate and/or recondition athletic and physically active patients who suffer a wide variety of injury, both surgical and non-surgical, associated with their activity(ies). The theory and application of rehabilitation and reconditioning techniques includes retraining strength, power and endurance, restoration of flexibility and range of motion, activity specific conditioning, proprioception and balance, and agility. This course is designed for athletic training students.

Discussion and research relating to current emphases in early childhood/elementary/secondary school physical education.

This course provides students with opportunities to develop a philosophy, values and moral reasoning skills, to explore and clarify their career goals, to sharpen critical thinking skills for analyzing ethical problems in the sport business and generating possible solutions.

Study of advanced biomechanical principles related to physical activity, exercise, and sport performance applications, as well as theory and research foundations for understanding motor skill acquisition and factors that influence the learning of motor skills.

Knowledge base in observation, observation models, techniques of coding and analyzing, developing observation skills, challenges to observation, and observations in various environments.

The study of neuroanatomical structure, function, and clinical assessment of the central and peripheral neurologic systems.
