Senior Physical Education 2019/2020 Annette Gray – Curriculum Leader HPE

Introduction Students learn experientially through three stages of an inquiry approach to make links between scientific bases and physical activity contexts. Students recognise and explain concepts and principles about and through movement and demonstrate and apply body and movement concepts to movement sequences and movement strategies. Through engagement in physical activities, students gather, analyse and synthesise data to devise strategies to optimise performance. They evaluate and justify strategies about and in movement through reflective decision making.

Pathways PE is a general subject suited to students who are interested in pathways that lead to tertiary studies, vocational education or work. A course of study in PE can establish a basis for further education and employment in the fields of: Human Movement Exercise science Biomechanics Allied health professions Psychology Teaching Sport journalism Sport marketing Sport promotion Sport development and coaching

Course Structure PE is a course of study which consists to four units. Subject matter, learning experiences and assessment increase in complexity from Units 1 and 2 to Units 3 and 4. Unit 1&2 provide foundational learning which allows students to experience all syllabus objectives. Students need to complete Unit 1&2 before beginning Unit 3. Units 3&4 consolidate student learning. Only results from Unit 3&4 will contribute to ATAR calculations.

Course Structure

Changes to Senior Physical Education – slide presented to Year 10 cohort Currently Mastery in physical activity contributes to 50% of total mark. Set physical activities for each term which are assessed and repeated in Year 12. All written and practical tasks are equally weighted. Senior PE 2019/2020 Physical activity is the medium through which all subject matter is learnt. This means that “theory” is integrated with “prac”. Not all physical activities have to be mastered (ie. they are not all marked). There is at least one physical activity per unit – some are assessed, some are not. Not all tasks are equally weighted. Mastery of physical activity - Unit 3 & Unit 4 Unit 3 Topic 1 – Physical activity mark = 8/25 marks Unit 4 Topic 1 – Physical activity mark = 10/30 marks This will be mirrored in Unit 1 & Unit 2

The Big Change/s: What is the same? Weighting of physical activities Not having to “master” all physical activities – ie don’t get marks in all physical activities New topics – Tactical Awareness and Strategy Subject matter is not necessarily “theory” Physical activities may vary within the unit – there might be more than one so that subject matter can be explored. Units will be different lengths-not term by term External exam – Unit 4 What is the same? Physical activity is studied in all units. Some units focus in detail on one physical activity; however, other activities may be completed to understand concepts. There will still be a significant number of practical lessons.

Subject Matter – Practical activities may change (including order to match subject matter) Unit 1 Topic 1- Motor Learning integrated with Netball Topic 2 – Functional Anatomy & Biomechanics integrated with Badminton Stages of learning Practice types Classifying skills Models of learning Feedback Rate limiters Motor learning strategies to improve netball performance – data will be gathered in practical netball lessons Netball – body movement concepts and strategies Function of muscles and bones Anatomical movements Muscle contraction Phases of movements Force and motion Projectile motion Force summation, acceleration and velocity Newton’s Laws Stability Levers Optimising performance in badminton – data will be gathered in practical lessons Badminton – body movement concepts and strategies Assessment: Project Folio Assessment: Exam + practical assessment

Subject Matter – Practical activities may change Unit 2 Topic 1- Sports Psychology integrated with Aerobic Gymnastics Topic 2 – Equity – Barriers and Enablers - various physical activities Motivation Confidence Attention and concentration Goal setting Psychological techniques to optimise (team and individual) performance/s in aerobics Aerobics team routine – body movement concepts and strategies Equity Enablers and resources Barriers and resources Socialisation Megatrends Personal, social, cultural and environmental factors acting as barriers and enablers to engagement in physical activities Gathering data in various physical activities –eg minor games - rounders Assessment: Project Folio + practical assessment Assessment: Investigation Report

Unit 3 – beginning in Term 4 2019 and continuing in 2020 Subject Matter – Practical activities may change Unit 3 – beginning in Term 4 2019 and continuing in 2020 Topic 1-Tactical Awareness integrated with Netball Topic 2 – Ethics and Integrity – various practical activities Motor learning – cognitive and dynamic systems. Constraints in physical activity and movement solutions. Perception. Constraints led approach to explore movement sequences and strategies in netball. Decision making in netball – reading play, reacting. Adapting to play in netball – setting up attack, defending against attack, creating/defending/exploiting space. Gathering data in netball games – personal performance of movement sequences/strategies. Analysing data. Devising and justifying personal and team strategies. Acceptable sporting behaviours. Values, actions and engagement. Fair play. Development of personal values –influences. Conduct, rules and policies in class physical activities. Ethical decision making for exploring an ethical dilemma. Gathering data/evidence through class physical activity scenarios. Evaluation of strategies. Various physical activity class practical experiences Assessment: Internal Assessment # 1 Project Folio (including 2 practical assessment criteria) 25% total 8 marks allocated to practical performance in netball Assessment: Internal Assessment #2 Investigation Report 20% No physical activity criteria

Subject Matter – Practical activities may change Unit 4 Topic 1 – Energy, Fitness and Training with Aquathlon + various physical activities ATP and energy for physical activities Energy systems Fitness components V02 max and Lactate threshold Energy requirements in Aquathlon Analysis of data from personal performance/s, training in Aquathlon Principles of training Training methods Periodisation and tapering Games analysis (for External exam prep) Features of a training program Implementation and modification of training in Aquathlon Various activities to understand and collect/analyse data for external exam (e.g. touch) {not assessed} Assessment: Internal Assessment # 3 Project Folio (including 2 practical assessment criteria) 30% total 10 marks allocated to practical performance/s in aquathlon Assessment: External Assessment Exam – Multiple Choice/Short response/extended response 25% No marks allocated to physical activity
