Administrative Assistant, Susan Gale-Wolbert (905) 688-5550, extension 4358 http://arnie.pec.brocku.ca/~phed/ The Department of Physical Education and the Faculty of Education co-operate in offering a concurrent five-year program combining an (honours) BPhEd degree with a BEd for students interested in teaching at the Primary/Junior level (grades K - 6). Students in the program must be registered full-time and follow the prescribed program. Any exceptions must have the approval of the Director. Students must maintain a 75 percent overall average each year in all academic grade-marked courses. Application forms for the BPhEd/BEd program are available from the Physical Education office from March 15. The forms must be completed and returned to the office by May 15. Late applications may be considered. Students in the BPhEd/BEd program should consult the Director or Co-ordinator regarding program requirements and continuance in the program. Students are strongly recommended to take an emergency First Aid/CPR course. Because the BPhEd/BEd program integrates teacher education courses with academic courses, the student should note that the Pre-service Education courses are credited toward the BEd while the remaining courses are credited to the BPhEd. For this reason, a student who transfers out of the BPhEd/BEd program may not have credit in Pre-service Education courses applied to a BPhEd degree. Students should note that credits for the concurrent BPhEd/BEd program are not evenly distributed between the years because of the structure of Education courses. Students are responsible to note Calendar and scheduling differences between the Undergraduate and Pre-service departments. Successful graduates of the program will receive a Bachelor of Physical Education honours degree and a Bachelor of Education degree. The concurrent BPhEd(Honours)/BEd courses reflect national accreditation standards established by the Canadian Council of University Physical Education and Kinesiology Administrators (CCUPEKA).The Department of Physical Education has applied for accreditation by this council. The Dean of the Faculty of Education may recommend that the Ontario College of Teachers grant an Ontario Certificate of Qualification certifying them to teach grades K - 6. |

Students must complete the common first year in the Physical Education program before applying for admission to the BPhEd(honours)/BEd program. Admission will be based on a minimum of 75 percent overall average on a minimum of five credits and a minimum grade of 70 percent in both PHED 1P90 and 1P93. In addition, a letter of interest/experience, references and an interview may be used to determine eligibility to enter the program. Students should note that this is a limited enrolment program and admission is not guaranteed by attainment of the minimum requirements. Students are expected to have the admissions requirements for the Primary/Junior Pre-Service BEd degree before completing the BPhEd(Honours)/BEd program. Candidates must have completed Grade 12 advanced, OAC courses or, under the new curriculum, university or university/college preparation courses in Canadian geography and Canadian history (or similar courses that emphasize Canadian content), mathematics, science and English. For those candidates who have not completed these secondary school courses, the following courses or equivalents will be accepted: MATH 2P52 Principles of Mathematics for Primary and Junior Teachers; SCIE 1P10 Principles of Science for Primary and Junior Teachers; LING 1P95 Principles of Language Structure for Primary and Junior Teachers; one-half university Canadian geography credit; one-half university Canadian history credit. Students are also encouraged to take arts and physical education courses. |
