The
Physical Education Option program prepares students to pursue a bachelor's degree at four-year institutions that offer physical education as a teaching option or other fitness related programs.
Professional and technical instruction is given in teaching and coaching the various sports, and activities, that are commonly taught in public schools with the addition of appropriate theoretical academic background. Students will develop teaching strategies that will allow them to meet the needs of the whole student from a psychomotor, cognitive and affective domain perspective. Through the infusion of Prince George's Community College's General Education Requirements, the sciences, and core courses in physical education, the sequence of courses are designed to provide the student with skills and leadership experience needed to direct a balanced program of physical education classes, intramural and extramural activity programs.
