THE NEW PE JUMPSTART WORKSHOP


Giving you the tools to bring the New PE to your school

Polar is committed to the New PE and the crucial role that technology can play in assessing and improving the fitness of young people. Polar technology makes it easy and fun to take physical education to a whole new level – allowing PE teachers to continually measure fitness improvement while motivating students to assume responsibility for their own well-being.

Polar has worked closely with physical educators for more than 10 years, and we have seen the challenges you face in trying to implement a New PE program. As a result, we’ve created the New PE JUMPSTART Workshop to provide you with the basic knowledge, hands-on experience and tools to help you launch a New PE program in your school.

During this 3-day workshop at Polar’s training headquarters in Albuquerque, NM, you’ll:

  • Explore the capabilities of Polar’s technology for the New PE
  • Learn how to use and implement the technology in your program
  • Gain the ability and resources to present the technology and its importance to your peers, department chair, and administration
  • Receive fundraising ideas to help pay for your New PE program

Plus, you’ll receive the products you need to jumpstart your program:

  • 10 E600 downloadable heart rate monitors
  • 10 Infrared interfaces
  • 10 Companion Pocket PCs
  • 1 TriFIT assessment software program and 10-user site license
    (includes Health Risk Appraisals, Meal Planning and Group Reporting)
  • 1 PE Manager software program and 10-user site license
  • 1 Class Management System
  • 1 Instructional Banner

This is your first step to make the New PE a reality in your school. Let Polar help JUMPSTART your program.

"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."
