In the Bachelor of Arts in Education program in physical education, you prepare to teach quality physical education programs to learners in preschool through grade 12. The curriculum directly aligns with national beginning teacher standards of SHAPE America --- Society of Health and Physical Educators. You take foundational coursework in the areas of growth and motor development, movement activities and lifelong physical fitness. The coursework covers elementary, secondary and adaptive physical education methods, including topics such as instructional design, lesson planning and modifications, and accommodations for P-12 learners. You develop skills in creating positive and productive learning environments, assessing and monitoring student progress, reporting outcomes, and conducting yourself as a responsible and ethical professional. Mary Lou Fulton College for Teaching and Learning Innovation has developed a team-based approach to teacher preparation, enabling you to participate in professional experiences --- internships and student teaching --- with a team of peers while receiving guidance and support from ASU faculty members and highly qualified certified teachers. Team-based professional experiences are designed to prepare you to work with mutually supportive colleagues to address the academic and social-emotional needs of learners. Clinically embedded courses and professional experiences provide you with multiple opportunities to apply to practice in the classroom the knowledge gained in coursework. You complete a series of internships before a semester-long, full-time teaching experience with the support of a certified mentor teacher and ASU faculty. Upon graduation, you earn an institutional recommendation for teacher certification in Physical Education, P-12, as well as a Structured English Immersion, P-12, endorsement through the Arizona Department of Education. To teach in a public school, you must pass the appropriate Arizona educator exams (National Evaluation Series or Arizona Educator Proficiency Assessments) to be certified to teach in the state of Arizona.
