| International Project for Attitude Change in Adapted Physical Activity |
| This session is for physical education and recreation professionals who are policy makers, researchers, administrators, and practitioners interested in the impact attitude has on practice. The best opportunity we have to influence socio-educational policy and create social change is to increase our understanding of the mechanisms that underlie attitude. The purpose of this session will be to create a cohort of professionals interested in the International Project for Attitude Change in Adapted Physical Activity (IPAC). Small interest group discussions will be facilitated by session organizers in order to collect, record, and discuss group suggestions on how to create social change. |
