PHED 4520 DAPE Foundations of Due Process, Assessment, and Evaluation (3 credits)
DAPE Foundations of Due Process, Assessment, and Evaluation provides candidates with the knowledge necessary to develop, organize, and administer DAPE programs. The candidates will demonstrate competency in referral, assessment, and evaluation supported by DAPE' s historical and philosophical foundations, legal bases, the IEP process, technology resources, and an understanding of health-related physical and motor fitness, assistive technology, and adapted equipment. The theoretical research is grounded in Minnesota's K-12 Academic Standards in Physical Education and the Developmental Adapted Physical Education (DAPE) Core Skills and Standards. Students will gain knowledge to assess the fitness, motor, social and behavioral skills of three students, ages 3-22-year-old, with identified disabilities in a school setting to create a team evaluation plan and report. Students develop DAPE programs for elementary, middle, and secondary school levels using assessment information. Programs reflect individual student goals and objectives, as the MNDAPE Operational Guide (2023) outlines. Prerequisite(s): PHED 4510.
