KIN 541 - Positive Youth Development Through Sport and Physical Activity

★ 3 (fi 6) (either term, 0-3s-0) Positive Youth Development (PYD) is a strength-based conception of childhood and adolescence. From the PYD Perspective, youth are viewed as ‘resources to be developed’ rather than ‘problems to be managed.’ Through this course the potential for promoting positive youth development through sport and physical activity will be explored. Prerequisites: KIN 403, or equivalent, or permission of the instructor. Note: Credit will be granted for only one of KIN 541 or PEDS 541.
