Year 12 Physical Education Studies 1CD
Overview
Physical Education Studies contributes to the development of the whole person. It promotes the physical, social and emotional growth of students. Throughout the course emphasis is placed on understanding and improving performance in physical activities. The integration of theory and practice is central to studies in this course.
Physical Education Studies focuses on the complex interrelationships between motor learning and psychological, biomechanical and physiological factors that influence individual and team physical performance. Students engage not only as performers but as leaders, coaches, analysts and planners in, through and about physical activity. Physical activity serves both as a source of content and data and as a medium for learning. Learning in Physical Education Studies cannot be separated from active participation in physical activities and involves students in closely integrated written, oral and physical learning experiences based upon the study of selected physical activities.
Topics
Unit 1C: The focus of this unit is introducing students to simple movement, biomechanical, physiological, psychological, functional anatomy and motor leaning concepts that provide a basis for assessing and enhancing their own and others' performance. The understanding of the relationship between skill, movement production and fitness will be further enhanced as students develop and improve.
Unit 1D: The focus of this unit is for students to assess their own and others' movement competency and identify areas for improvement through simple results based quantitative measures. They will build on their knowledge of training principles, nutrition and goal setting concepts to enhance their own and others' performance in physical activity.
Student expectations
Students will be expected to complete approximately 1.5 hours of homework each week. This time should be spent consolidating material covered in class as well as any assigned tasks.
