I recently had the chance to jump on the podcast with Gary from Distinguished PE, and it was simply a great conversation.
We talked about my book, Just Adapt It, and the STEP framework—Space, Task, Equipment, and People—and how that process helps teachers confidently adapt activities so every student can participate. I always appreciate opportunities to share practical strategies that make inclusion realistic and doable in real PE settings.

Gary also shared about the new self-paced Distinguished PE courses that have launched. Each course is graduate-level and aligned with key components of high-quality physical education, including inclusivity, student engagement, behavior expectations, use of space and resources, standards-based objectives, and assessment.
These courses can be taken for:
- Graduate-level credit
- License renewal hours
- Professional growth
Opportunities like this matter. The stronger we become in our planning, expectations, and assessment practices, the stronger adapted physical education becomes across entire school systems.
