Casey,
Check the thread http://www.pelinks4u.org/naspeforum/discus/message s/9/725.html?1139264916 in the Health, Fitness, & Nutrition. It will answer some of your questions.
If you are using it for special needs students, I would use the workout choice rather than the game choice. You can make all the errors you want without having the game stop for the number of mistakes made. If you get a memory card, you can track the amount of time and calories accumulated. I wouldn't think the calories count is accurate, but it does show that energy is used for DDR. |

That's great to know. I plan on purchasing DDR and I was worried that my special needs students wouldn't be able to keep up. I'm glad that they have this option. I am very excited to use this with my students!
