Prerequisite: Must have completed at least 1 course from the 300-level Kinesiology Core courses with a grade of C- or better. Recommended: Completion of KNES282 with grade of C- or better.
In this discussion-style, team-based course kinesiology, public health, and other students are provided with the opportunity to pair with a given sport organization (community partner) in order to assess the health and safety needs of the partner as well as plan, develop, implement and evaluate appropriate evidence-based intervention strategies. Students will work on course projects individually and in teams and ultimately our class will create a comprehensive intervention toolkit, including sport health and safety policies, guidelines, and other resources for the organization's stakeholders. While class time will be allotted for course-related work, meetings with the community partner and/or class peers outside of regular class time is also required.
