13 PHYSICAL EDUCATION - MĀTAURANGA TINANA
Course selection for 2019 is now finished.
Course Description
Curriculum Leader: Ms T. Murphy.
Level 3 Physical Education involves students learning in, through and about movement in a range of different physical activity environments. The course may include the disciplines of functional anatomy, exercise physiology, sport psychology, skill acquisition and biomechanics, which are applied to critically evaluate physical activities, skills or events. Students will also develop a greater understanding of the sociology of sport, necessary to critically evaluate their own, others’ and societal involvement in physical activity. Critical thinking, understanding research and reaching coherent judgements are some of the fundamental skills acquired in this course.
Topics likely to be offered in 2025:
- Analysis of a physical skill (Anatomy and Biomechanics).
- Evaluate physical activity experiences for lifelong wellbeing.
- Two physical activity contexts are offered to the students and practiced and performed (lawn bowls + volleyball).
