CATALOG DESCRIPTION:
Instruction of non-swimming students to gain proficiency skills in the elementary forms of swimming. A
beginning swimmer will learn to float on back, swim in deep water, overcome fear, correct breathing
problems and swim across pool.
NOTE: P.E. 41A is repeatable in combination with P.E. 41B, 42, and 43 to a maximum four enrollments.
COURSE OUTCOMES/OBJECTIVES: List the primary instructional objectives of the class. Formulate
some of them in terms of specific measurable student accomplishments, e.g. specific knowledge and/or
skills to be attained as a result of completing this course. For degree-applicable courses, include
objectives in the area of “critical thinking.” Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be
able to:
To satisfactorily pass the skill examination of jumping into deep water, level off, swim 20 yards on the
front, survival float one minute and swim to safety.

If no text or a below college level text is used in a degree applicable course must have a minimum of one
response in category 1, 2, or 3. If category 1 is not checked, the department must explain why substantial
writing assignments are an inappropriate basis for at least part of the grade.
1. Substantial writing assignments, including:
essay exam(s)
term or other paper(s)
written homework
reading report(s)
laboratory report(s)
other (specify) _____
If the course is degree applicable, substantial writing assignments in this course are inappropriate
because:
The course is primarily computational in nature.
The course primarily involves skill demonstrations or problem solving.
Other rationale (explain) __________________________________________
2. Computational or Non-computational problem-solving demonstrations, including:
exam(s)
quizzes
homework problems
laboratory report(s)
field work
other (specify)_______
3. Skill demonstrations, including:
class performance(s)
field work
other (specify) Video evaluation of stroke techniques
performance exam(s)
4. Objective examinations, including:
multiple choice
completion
matching items
true/false
other (specify)
5. Other (specify) Attendance is 50% of the grade
NOTE: A course grade may not be based solely on attendance.
REQUIRED READING, WRITING, AND OTHER OUTSIDE OF CLASS ASSIGNMENTS:
