A qualitative data collection technique was used in order to present the knowledge and awareness status of candidate students.

By using the interview technique students questioned if physical education for disabled course composed awareness and increased their knowledge about disabled with three questions. The Data obtained accordingly were summed up and annotated according the pre-determined themes.
