This course will be different every year and the topics studied will depend on the interests of the students. This is a co-designed course which means the assessments and contexts are planned together, students and teacher.
This course can be taken as a half year option.
This means you would complete 3 internals in Term 1-2 (one of which is purely practical) and then have a study option for Terms 3-4.
You do not have to be a great sportswoman to get Excellences in this course.
Overall the course aims to:
•To provide students with a critical understanding of some of the theoretical principles that relate to physical activity
•To provide students with the knowledge and skills they require to study Physical Education in a Tertiary Education Institution.
•To provide opportunities for students to develop personal and social skills and attributes that contribute to a healthy lifestyle.
