EDHPE1003 Perspectives on Health, Outdoor and Physical Education
Students will explore the integrated learning area of health, outdoor and physical education in terms of its past, present and future and the discourses and theoretical foundations which underpin the learning area. They will explore traditional area specific pedagogies and will participate in practical activities to gain an introduction to more contemporary approaches. Developing an understanding of the theoretical and philosophical foundations of health, outdoor, and physical education will form the foundational knowledge necessary for students to explore their own personal philosophy and values. This self-awareness will help students think more deeply about their potential career trajectory, by facilitating students in aligning their academic pursuits and extracurricular activities with their evolving career goals. Students will engage in industry visits to gain relevant experience in the health, outdoor and physical education sectors. Through these experiences students will be required to assess their current strengths and weaknesses, identifying transferable skills and areas for further development.
