We (iPE) believe . . .
• the goal of physical education is to develop physically literate individuals who have the knowledge, skills and confidence to enjoy a lifetime
of healthful physical activity.
• the benefits of regular physical activity include: assists in improved academic performance, helps children feel better about themselves,
reduces the risk for overweight, diabetes and other chronic diseases, reduces the risk for depression and the effects of stress, helps
children prepare to be productive, healthy members of society and improves overall quality of life.
• every child should be active 60 minutes every day.
• every child should avoid prolonged periods of inactivity.
• every child deserves both quality physical education and physical activity.
• on average, active children perform better in language arts and mathematics test scores.
• the availability of modern conveniences means today's students do not have to be active to survive, so they must be taught to be active to
thrive.
• "physical education" and "physical activity" are used interchangeably but differ in important ways. Understanding the difference between
physical education and physical activity is critical to understanding why both contribute to the development of healthy, active children.
• quality physical education programs provide learning opportunities, appropriate instruction, meaningful and challenging content for all
students regardless of skill or fitness level, gender, race or ethnic group to establish and sustain an active lifestyle.
• physical education should not be compared to or confused with other physical activity experiences such as recess, intramurals, or
recreational endeavors.
• effective physical educators assess student knowledge, motor and social skills, and provide instruction in a safe, supportive environment.
• fitness education helps children understand, improve and/or maintain their physical well-being.
• physical education improves emerging social/emotional development and cooperative skills of every child.
• every child should have the opportunity to be active at school at least 225 minutes per week for the entire school year. Every grade level.
• teacher/student ratio in physical education should be no greater than local standards for all subjects.
• stakeholders (teachers, parents, administrators, school boards, and community members) should periodically evaluate physical education
program effectiveness.

What are the requirements (PE1/PE2)?
PHYSICAL EDUCATION I (IN Course 3542)
and focuses on instructional strategies through
a planned, sequential, and comprehensive physical education curriculum which provide
students with opportunities to actively participate in at least four of the following
[ ]
:
team
sports; dual sport activities; individual physical activities; outdoor pursuits; self
‐
defense
and martial arts; aquatics; gymnastics; and dance, all which are within the framework of
lifetime physical activities and fitness. Ongoing assessment includes both written and
performance
‐
based skill evaluation. Individual assessments may be modified for
individuals with disabilities, in addition to those with IEP’s and 504 plans (e.g., chronic
illnesses, temporary injuries, obesity, etc.). As a designated laboratory course, 25% of
course time must be spent in activity.

Taught by primary or secondary

No cost to school district
(funded by state)
What does the state say about waivers?
A teacher develops
an independent learning course
that encompasses standards
met through participation in alternative setting (band, sports, activities, etc.)
Credit must be granted by a licensed physical education teacher acting as the
teacher of record
responsible for insuring that PE standards were addressed.
Students should have the opportunity to actively participate in
at least four of the
following
: team sports; dual sport activities, individual physical activities; outdoor
pursuits; self-defense and martial arts; aquatics; gymnastics; and dance.
The coach/director implements the
course requirements
identified by a PE
teacher. (S)he provides documentation and grade recommendations to the PE
teacher.
A grade must be assigned
for all courses to be factored into GPA calculations.
Participation in the same sport/activity only counts for
one
CORE40 PE credit.

IOA has been offering PE1 and
PE2 classes that conform to
state standards since 2005.
“It’s our most popular course.”
[Ronda Eschleman, IOA]
. . . she thinks it [online
PE] may be superior to
traditional gym class.
Students are expected to
participate in at least 3
hours of aerobic activity
during the 7 week course.
Most kids won’t get enough
education or physical
activity on their own.”
[Chuck Koeppen, CHS
“It’s a boon to Carmel
schools because the course
comes at no cost; the state
reimburses the district.”
i
PE
Typically not a collaborative process
Most physical educators
learn of school district
decisions to accept new
options after the decision
has been made.
Often concurrent with
public communication.
Too late to offer input or
influence policy
Standard 1 Motor Skills and Movement Patterns:
Students demonstrate competency in motor skills and movement
patterns needed to perform a variety of physical activities. Most
students in grades nine and above have reached a high level of
competency in movement forms and can demonstrate mastery in
selected lifetime activities. Through observation, analysis, and practice,
they develop motor skills to the highest level possible for them at this
developmental stage. Students participate in a variety of individual and
dual lifetime activities, team sports, recreational games, dance, and
fitness activities.
i
PE
9.1.1
Demonstrate
activity - specific skills in individual, dual, and team physical
activities. Example: Participate in tactical games that require advanced eye - hand/foot
coordination and high levels of strategy (e .g., net/ wall, field, invasion, and target
sports using specialized skills and strategies).
9.1.2
Perform
creative rhythmic movement patterns with increasing degrees of difficulty.
Example: Choreograph and perform movement sequences and/or dances to a musical
selection.
9.1.3
Model
or
teach
mature motor skills and movement patterns to another student.
Example: Instruct a peer how to perform a proficient badminton serve.
9.1.4
Perform
specific skills at an advanced performance level. Example: Practice tennis
strokes by successfully executing a forehand drive, backhand drive, serve, lob, and /or
overhead smash.

Those that already accept
credit flexibility options
Those that will accept

PE
Your two options:
Ignore it . . .
. . . and hope it goes away.
Own it . . .
How do I stop credit flexibility?
You probably can’t stop it . . .
. . . but you can manage it.
IF
you take the lead before
someone else does.

Can we agree?
Credit flexibility options for physical education
are good when they:
equally meet state requirements
equally comply with standards
each involve regular physical activity
use a unified curriculum (coherency)
reside within the PE department

Communicating the policy
What's your best option?
While every student situation is unique,
consider these important guidelines:
Best
: whenever possible, students complete both PE credits
as a part of their regular school schedule.
Better
: the first PE credit is completed as a part of a student's
regular school schedule. The second PE credit is earned
through summer school or alternative PE (waiver).
Acceptable
: a distance learning (online) course may be
appropriate for exceptional cases including course recovery,
expulsion, pregnancy, incarceration, injury, individual needs,
etc.). Exceptions should only be considered when all other
options have been exhausted. Department head approval.
In school,
88.4%
Summer,
7.4%
Waiver,
3.8%
Distance
Learning,
0.4%
i
PE
Lead the charge
We embrace credit flexibility.
We are committed to great PE experiences
regardless of option.
We don’t compromise our integrity. All options
meet state requirements, comply with
standards, and involve regular physical activity.
We teach our own: no outsourcing educational
experiences for CORE 40 classes.
