APE Collaborative: Assessments
from What's New in Adapted Physical Education Hosted by What's New In Adapted Physical Education
For this episode of the What's New in APE Podcast, we are able to deliver a recording of the December NCPEID APE Collaborative where two highly regarded experts in the field of APA discussed different types of assessments, how to use them, and how they were developed. First Tonya Moore (@mooretonya2003), the Physical Education and Health Coordinator at Los Angeles County Office, explained how to use the CARE-R2 assessment. The CARE-R2 assessment is often used to assess the motor skills and development of children with moderate-severe disabilities to help determine appropriate placement options and IEP goals. when determining appropriate adapted physical education placement, triennial assessments and IEP goal development. The second guest speaker was Dr. Dale Ulrich (@TGMD3Ulrich), who is an accomplished researcher and professor emeritus at the University of Michigan and the developer of the TGMD. The most recent version of this assessment is the TGMD-III and is a psychometrically validated motor skills assessment designed to quickly assess children aged 3-11 years old. It can be used to identify areas of need, eligibility for APE services, IEP goals, and appropriate PE placement.
