Minor in Health Teaching
A Health Teaching minor provides students pursuing a degree in
Physical Education with P-12 certification with the opportunity
to enhance their teaching skills through the understanding of one’s
capacity to create health and wellness; and to learn about the
effects of personal health on the teaching and learning environment.
Students will learn to implement an interdisciplinary approach
to teaching health within their chosen course of study.
The minor
in Health Teaching requires a minimum of six (6) course credits,
as follows:
Required Core Courses—HLT 109, HLT 215,
and 315; CFS 221; and PEH 100
Required Distribution Courses—One course
chosen from HLT 111, 210, 224, or 318; and one additional full-credit
HLT course. (NOTE: PEH 220 does not count toward the minor.)
Admission to the Minor—An interview with members of
the Health faculty of the Department, as well as a departmental
recommendation, are required for admission to the Health Teaching
minor.
Additional
considerations for the Health Minor—Designated
Short Term HLT courses may be used for the minor. A grade of C
(2.0 GPA) or higher in each required Health Teaching minor course
and in each prerequisite and collateral course is required for
continuation in the minor. Students not receiving a grade of C
or higher may repeat that particular course to raise the grade
while remaining in the minor program.
