EDPH101 Personal Development, Health and Physical Education 2

10 cp

This unit follows directly on from the introductory unit EDPH306. The unit aims to continue curriculum development in PD/H/PE, with more emphasis on health education and personal development in the primary school and integrating the content of the 4 syllabus strands that focus primary on these issues. It will give insight into a range of curriculum materials strategies and processes and investigate the implications for personal development and health education within the key learning area of PDHPE with a strong emphasis on drug education, child protection education, sexuality education and personal health choices. Some further investigation of alternatives in teaching gymnastics will be pursued. This will provide students with the knowledge, skills and understandings to be able to plan, program and teach effectively in all facets of the PDHPE syllabus.
