"We’ve seen first-hand how the physical education profession has changed. We knew we had to change our program in order to graduate technology-savvy Majors to fulfill the requirements demanded by today’s school districts. By incorporating Polar into our newly refocused Masters program, Teaching With Technology, we’re doing just that."
