Professional Practice in PDHPE 3
EDUH3020
This core unit of study is the third of four defining pedagogical and professional practices in K-12 Personal Development Health and Physical Education (PDHPE). It specifically focuses on Stage 6 PDHPE learning, teaching and assessment. Through an examination of the core and option modules and Higher School Certificate assessment requirements, students will be afforded the opportunity to design creative, student centred and challenging learning and teaching experiences, teacher support material and assessment tasks. Students will also review and refine planning and programming skills for 7-10. By focusing on key syllabus concepts, the socio-cultural perspectives of health and physical activity, critical inquiry and practical application, and creative and student centred pedagogies the unit deploys quality teaching theories and practices. A deeper examination of the National Professional Standards for Teachers (AITSL, 2011) is an integral part of this unit of study. The unit is linked to a 4-week block professional experience in secondary schools.
