- Summary:
-
A survey of state laws and regulations revealed that of 46 responding states and the District of Columbia, 27 states provide physical activities to children with various handicapping conditions. Findings indicated that provisions vary from state to state and do not always cover all aspects of adapted physical education or all children with handicapping conditions, and that only 12 states require physical educators (who work with handicapped children) to have special preparation or training. The following recommendations were based on the findings: (1) provision by states for physical education for all children; (2) the use of the terms "adapted physical education" and "handicapping conditions" according to definitions developed by the Committee on Adapted Physical Education of the American Association of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation (AAHPER) in 1952; (3) increase of certification requirements in each state to include needed competencies for providing physical education to children with handicapping conditions; and (4) a structure at the national level within the AAHPER to provide coordination and guidance for state and local levels. Appendixes give letters to state directors of special and physical education and relevant copies of state laws and regulations from responding states and the District of Columbia. (Author/MC)
