AAPAR Position Statement APE Quailfications.pdf
“Any student who has unique needs for instruction in physical education, regardless of disability, is entitled to receive appropriate accommodations through adapted physical education. Therefore, the term eligibility is used in this statement in the broadest sense.”
![Page 9: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
IDEA and ADA Individuals with Disabilities Act (1975)
Americans with Disabilities Act (1990)
Landmark Law: Free appropriate education all special needs children 3-21.
Determined eligibility for special education services.
14 conditions legally recognized as disabilities under the law.
Most appropriate, least restrictive.
Physical Education direct service.
IEP
Replaced the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
Prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by agencies of the federal government.
Section 504: no exclusion from any programs receiving federal assistance (including schools).

Public Law 94-142, the Education for All Handicapped Children Act (1975) is the first law in the history of the U.S. provided children with disabilities the right to a free, appropriate education.
Individual Education Program (IEP).
Individuals with Disabilities Act(IDEA)
![Page 11: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
IDEA:
Assessment will determine if their disability affects their education
performance.
To qualify for special education services, the student must have both a qualifying condition and demonstration that this condition affects their educational performance, even with accommodations.
![Page 12: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Assessment in special education begins by determining whether a child qualifies for special education services.
Does the student qualify under the law? Does the student’s disability significantly
affect their educational performance?
Qualification for Special Education Services
![Page 13: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Qualifying Conditions IDEAIDEA 14 Categories.pdf
Autism Deaf/Blindness Deafness Developmental Delay Emotional Disturbance Hearing Impairment Intellectual Disability Multiple Disability Orthopedic Impairment Other Health Impairment Specific Learning Disability Speech and Language Impairment Traumatic Brain Injury Visual Impairment including Blindness
![Page 14: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
IDEA and APE
It must determined through testing weather or not a child’s disability significantly affects his or her ability to be successful in physical
education.
Students qualified for special education services under IDEA can qualify for APE services.
If a child does not qualify for special education services, then he or she will not qualify for APE services.*
A child who qualifies for special education services does not automatically qualify for APE services.
![Page 15: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
APE and IDEAPhysical Education is a direct
service.
Adapted PE is a service, not a place.
APE is an individualized program including physical and motor fitness, fundamental movement skills and patterns, skills in aquatics and dance and individual and group games and sports designed to meet the unique needs of individuals.
Designed to meet long term unique needs.
![Page 16: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
“No otherwise qualified handicapped individual in the U.S…shall, soley by reason of his or her handicap be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program receiving Federal financial assistance.”
Public schools receive federal funding and thus are subject to the rules and regulations of ADA.
This is where 504’s come from.
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
![Page 17: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Some students with disabilities do not qualify for special education services under IDEA because they do not have a disability that qualifies under one of the 14 categories or their disability does not adversely affect educational performance.
The definition of disability in the ADA is much broader than in IDEA.
ADA
![Page 18: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Therefore, section 504 plans usually include accessibility issues (getting around the building, a wheel chair ramp) as well as classroom modifications and accommodations.
Students are also entitled to adapted equipment, different testing procedures, extra time to complete tasks, and any other changes that “level the playing field.”
This is a regular education initiative and does not have special education funding provided to supplement the service.

“Benefit from Education”IDEA ADA
A qualifying child with a disability must receive an individually administered program that leads to clear educational benefit.
AKA: Measureable goals.
Under section 504, a qualifying child should receive an education that is comparable to the education provided to children without disabilities.
AKA: accomodations and supports.
![Page 20: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
IDEA vs. ADA
IDEA ADA
IDEA eligibility requires a child to have a disability that adversely affects educational performance.
ADA requires a child’s disability to affect major life activities.
![Page 21: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
NASPE/AAPAR: anyone who needs an accommodation or modification.
IDEA: someone who has one of the qualifying conditions and this condition adversely affects performance.
ADA: someone who needs the supports to receive a comparable education: accessibility, classroom modifications, and accommodations.
In Summary:Who Qualifies for APE?
![Page 22: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Zero Exclusion and Zero Failure
Zero Exclusion Zero Failure
Services must be provided to all children with a disability regardless of severity of disability.
Set the student up for success!
This can only be achieved by determining through assessment each child’s abilities and strengths, concerns and needs.

Why are we assessing?
What’s the difference between Norm Reference Instruments (NRIs) and Criterion Referenced Instruments (CRIs)?
What assessment based decisions do teachers need to make in APE?
What is the role and function of continuous assessment in PE?
How does assessment control the success or failure of students?
![Page 25: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Assessment Drives Instruction.

NRI’s allow comparison of one student’s performance against the performance of others from a particular peer group with similar characteristics.
For example: a 10 year old girl’s score will be compared to another 10 year old girl’s score.
More examples include percentiles, chronological age norms. Usually associated with standardized tests.
Norm Referenced Assessments(NRI)
![Page 27: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Less Standardized
Involve evaluating performance against an established set of criteria.
Example: Fitnessgram
Criterion Referenced Assessments(CRI)

Does the student qualify for APE services?
When the PE teacher is asked to participate in these eligibility decisions, they must be able to select and administer appropriate assessments that meet these requirements.
Identification
![Page 30: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Identification DecisionsIs the student eligible to receive
special education services?
Identification process is federally regulated.
NRIs are typically used when making identification decisions. They can provide normative data that can show the magnitude of the differences found in a student’s performance compared with standards.

Purpose of this section is to examine the types of background information gathered before the assessment process and identify the roles in the assessment process
Background Information
Central Files Health Related Records (Medical) Psychological Workups School Files Agency Files Insights from Parents and
Guardians Insights from other school
personnel Insights from the child
![Page 37: Assessment: Whom, Why, and Knowing the Child](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/5681640e550346895dd5b7e9/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Knowing where a child has come from almost always provides insights into present day performance. These insights help lay the foundations for teaching strategies.
It’s not just selecting and administering tests, but a thorough knowledge of their background.
Rationale
Become a detective gathering relevant background and current information from a variety of sources can affect decision making.
