Adapted Physical Education:
How to Interact with the Visually Impaired Student
This interview is with A.P.E. Specialist Catharine Downey, from Southern California’s Corona-Norco Unified School District.
Today’s topic is on Adapted Physical Education and how educators should interact with visually impaired students and the role of technology used as part of that interaction. Today’s discussion will highlight a parents answer to include their visually impaired child into regular P.E. classes with the use of a Beeping Egg.

Job well done!
I enjoyed your opening Tarzan yell, then the smooth transition to the music.
Your audio was clear and the questioning and answers had a smooth,even flow.
Excellent podcast, I had my wife listen to this so she can get an idea of what the interview process entails, and now she thinks that we should rethink out interview. :-) I like the shownotes and the resources. I hope mine ends up close to this. Dale
Thanks guys!
The Tarzan yell:
It does work for the title of the podcast but to be honest, I came very close to breaking one of the golden rules of announcing.
Never whistle or blow a whistle into the microphone or headset mic. This practice of creating long or sharp tones is considered taboo in the industry. Unfortunately, it does still occur. Recently, I heard a DJ on a local radio station being quite content with his whistling like a Canary.
Too bad he or the sponsors for the program didn’t realize I met the DJ’s whistle with a roll of the radio band dial and changed the station to one of its competitors!

Hey Big Joe!
“...special ed?”
My teaching credential is for Multimedia.
My being “well versed in the surrounding vibes of this area and ...sense [of] passion” is based on doing some research for interviewing a specialist in the adapted physical education field. I read a few articles, a couple of book chapters and spoke with the A.P.E. specialist prior to the interview.
This is part of the planning and preparing for an interview that I’ve written about.
Podcast station is definitely worth a purchase. Right now however, I’m looking over Bias Peak 4.0 audio editing software.
