Enrolment is not permitted in EDH3154 if EDH2254 has been previously completed.
Other requisites
This course is only available to BEDU Secondary students undertaking a major teaching area in Health and Physical Education.
Students enrolling in courses which do not follow the recommended enrolment pattern cannot be assured of a developmental learning experience or program completion within their preferred timeframe.
Rationale
Pre-service educators strengthen their capacities to teach through investigating and practising the multiple roles of teachers and continuing to develop their knowledge of how children learn in health and physical education environments. Understanding how children learn enables teachers to identify diverse needs and make informed decisions for effective teaching, evidenced in planning.
Health and physical education (HPE) are dynamic areas where knowledge is fluid and constantly changing or evolving. It is crucial for health and physical education pre-service educators to develop thorough, current knowledge and skills in a range of instructional strategies.
Students will critique research and practices to determine the most appropriate instructional strategies and teaching styles for the demographic, content and context, in order to enhance pedagogy for improved instructional and movement outcomes.
Synopsis
Students will review, reshape, reconstruct, and apply current instructional strategies revealed in relevant research. They will learn how to implement a wide variety of instructional strategies to achieve specific targeted outcomes in a variety of movement and physical activity and personal, social and community health contexts.
Students will analyse, experience and evaluate traditional and contemporary theories and models relevant to inclusive instructional strategies in health and physical education that meets diverse student needs. They will learn to provide effective feedback to peers and how to utilise feedback to improve practices.
They will focus on developing knowledge and skills that promote understanding and effective instruction through planning. They will apply a variety of relevant instructional strategies for a diverse range of developmental levels, ethnicities, cultural and religious backgrounds, socioecological environments and age demographics whilst taking into account contextual factors and legislative requirements to ensure a safe and accessible learning environments for all learners.
Objectives
On successful completion of this course students should be able to:
- evaluate current scholarship and traditional and contemporary instructional strategies to determine qualities and practices for effective learning (APST 1.2, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 3.3);
- apply a variety of appropriate pedagogical strategies to planning and implementation in a range of sport, exercise, physical education and health promotion contexts and settings (APST 1.1, 2.2, 3.2, 3.3, 3.6);
- apply systemic and legislative safety and equity requirements (APST 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4);
- critically reflect on practice to receive and provide feedback and refine planning and instruction in a range of contexts and settings (APST 2.3, 3.2, 3.6, 6.3, 7.4).
