Course description
This course introduces the Australian Curriculum: Health and Physical Education (F-10) to non-HPE specialists. Integral to Health and Physical Education is the acquisition of movement skills, concepts and strategies that enable students to participate in a range of physical activities confidently and competently. This course aims to develop primary generalist pre-service teachers' confidence and competence in a range of approaches to teaching and learning physical activity in order to better position them to facilitate physical activity experiences in their schools. It includes lectures, workshops, independent tasks and a low intensity practical physical activity component. Full attendance and participation in all learning activities is expected.
