Content
This unit focuses on investigating professional issues critical to your needs as health and physical educators. The theoretical component is driven by a student-centred scenario planning pedagogy. Students explore this pedagogy through the development and writing of a personal professional scenario and then progress to developing a health or physical education scenario that emanates from a school context. Students will also explore what it means to teach physical education in a special school environment and explore teaching strategies that will enrich and enhance their teaching skills.
