Note: It is recommend that students take Bi 102 General
Biology, and Bi 234 and 235 Human Anatomy and Physiology to fulfill
the Natural Science requirement in the LACC. Bi 234, 235 and 236 are prerequisites
to several major required and elective courses. See course descriptions
for specific prerequisites. Students electing to complete the BS degree
with a major in exercise science will meet the math, computer science and
statistics requirements by completing the following courses: Mth 111 (or
higher), CS 121 and 122 (or higher), PE 431 or 485.

Student Outcomes
Learning is a dynamic interaction among individual (structural and behavioral),
environmental (physical and sociocultural) and task constraints. Each
of these constraints can be manipulated or modified individually and/or
in combination to ensure optimal performance.
Relative to physical activity, physical fitness and motor skill development
programs, Candidates will:
1. Plan effective strategies, interventions and programs based
on assessment of individual and community needs.
a. Assess individual (structural and behavioral), environmental (physical
and sociocultural), and task constraints and interactions among constraints.
b. Determine individual and community outcomes based on needs assessment.
c. Manipulate individual, environmental and task constraints and interactions
in program development.
d. Develop appropriate tools to assess program outcomes.
2. Implement and evaluate strategies, interventions and programs.
a. Select instructional techniques appropriate to diverse individuals
and communities.
b. Deliver programs using a diverse range of equipment, facilities,
and pedagogical resources.
c. Assess achievement of individual and community program outcomes.
d. Interpret results of assessments and use information to further
evaluate and enhance programs.
3. Coordinate, communicate and advocate for research-based practices.
a. Develop plans for administering multi-faceted programs
in coordination with other components in individual or community settings.
b. Demonstrate collaboration among diverse professionals.
c. Retrieve information from a variety of resources which appropriately
address community needs.
d. Articulate content knowledge-based solutions to appropriate audiences.
e. Demonstrate skills and ethics needed in consultation relationships.
