Download or read book Increasing Inclusive Recreation Opportunities for Children with Disabilities Through Community based Participatory Intervention written by Ashley Spring Morgan Deaton and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Participation in challenging and intrinsically motivating recreation and leisure activities is considered vital to the development of children and youth (Hendry, 1983; Larson, 2000 as cited in King et al., 2003). Participation in activities is the context in which people develop skills and competencies, form friendships and relationships, achieve mental and physical health, express creativity, develop a self-identity, and determine meaning and purpose in life (Brown & Gordon, 1987; Fidler, 1978, Henry, 1998, Schleien, Green, & Heyne, 1993). Children with disabilities have a decreased level of participation in recreation activities as compared to their typically developing peers. This doctoral project seeks to increase participation in recreation opportunities for children with disabilities, their families, and their fellow community members. This is done through community-based interventions, including a community forum and recreation programs that utilize an asset-based, capacity building approach. The collaborative participation of the whole community in the planning and implementation of these interventions is an integral aspect of this project, as "change is more likely to occur when the people it affects are involved in the change process" (Shediac-Rizhallah & Bone, 1998, p.95). It appears that a multi-level ecological approach that includes coalition building concepts and identifies community assets while empowering community members to actively participate as embedded leaders and facilitators is an effective approach to increasing recreation opportunities for children with physical disabilities, their families, and their fellow community members. By enabling participation, the desired outcomes of greater community cohesion, increased family participation in recreation opportunities, and increased awareness of the value of recreation will lead to increased opportunities for all community members.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook represents the first comprehensive and evidence-based review of theory, research, and practice in the field of adapted physical education (APE). Exploring philosophical and foundational aspects of APE, the book outlines the main conceptual frameworks informing research and teaching in this area, and presents important material that will help shape best practice and future research. Written by world-leading researchers, the book introduces the key themes in APE, such as historical perspectives on disability, disability and the law, language, and measurement. It examines the most significant theoretical frameworks for understanding APE, from embodiment and social cognitive theory to occupational socialization, and surveys current debates and practical issues in APE, such as teacher training, the use of technology, and physical inactivity and health. Acknowledging the importance of the voices of children, parents and peers, the book also explores research methods and paradigms in APE, with each chapter including directions for further research. Offering an unprecedented wealth of material, the Routledge Handbook of Adapted Physical Education is an essential reference for advanced students, researchers and scholars working in APE, and useful reading for anybody with an interest in disability, physical education, sports coaching, movement science or youth sport.
