Preliminary Health and Physical Education Stage 1

Course Description

This course is organised into four sequential stages. Each stage includes a learning focus statement and examples of student learning. Each stage is designed to accommodate a learner’s level of readiness and reflects their stage of development. It may be likely that a learner will engage in only one stage of learning in their study of this course.

Through involvement in selected physical activities (including recreation and outdoor activities at a suitable level), and through exploring a range of appropriate health related topics, the learner will develop a variety of skills and knowledge.

Learners

The Preliminary to Level 1 suite of courses are designed for learners whose circumstances significantly impact their learning - in an ongoing manner or for extended periods of time.

These learners include:

learners with disability as defined by the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) 1992 whose disability requires educational adjustments to support access and participation in learning
learners whose circumstances have significantly impacted their ability to attend school for extended periods of time or engage in courses with higher levels of complexity
learners who require significant support for learning English as an additional language or dialect.

Preliminary Health and Physical Education has been structured to support an integrated and flexible delivery approach to address a breadth and balance of content across the Movement and Physical Activity and Personal, Social and Community Health strands.

Providers should endeavour to make regular explicit, timely and relevant links across the focus areas and experiences to foster an understanding of the interconnection that exists across the Health and Physical Education area.

Rationale

Preliminary Health and Physical Education is designed to meet the needs of young adult learners by building on the Australian Curriculum - Health and Physical Education to prepare learners for their futures. The course addresses fundamental aspects of both health and physical education, and is designed to be flexibly delivered to meet the individual needs of learners.

Preliminary Health and Physical Education can help contribute to building a positive lifelong health culture in Tasmania and is designed to support and develop learners in the area of physical literacy, whilst also integrating an appropriate range of targeted and holistic health-related content and experiences to help them develop the skills and awareness to manage their health throughout their adult lives.

The development of physical literacy is a lifelong process that is ongoing and dynamic. It is not developed to a point of completion but requires continual refinement and re-focusing based on life stage and circumstances, paving the way for a healthy and physically active life.

This course focuses on building on learners’ strengths to help them feel positive about who they are, to positively embrace changes during various life stages, and to explore a range of experiences to build capacity for healthy, safe, responsible and fulfilled lives.

Aims

Provision of pathways and opportunities that enhance and support equity, gender inclusion, engagement and retention are common aims across the 11/12 Health and Physical Education (HPE) suite of courses.

Preliminary Health and Physical Education aims to align with the F-10 Australian Curriculum - Health and Physical Education and seamlessly connect learners with a pathway provided in the TASC accredited suite of 11/12 HPE courses. The course format and design flexibility aims to support national and international initiatives and reinforce a culture of equity and inclusion with a particular focus on catering for the specific needs of learners.

With coactive support Preliminary Health and Physical Education aims to develop learners’ ability to:

use information to recognise and enhance their own and others’ health and wellbeing, safety and physical activity participation
develop and use personal, behavioural, social and cognitive skills to promote a sense of personal identity and wellbeing, and to build respectful relationships
acquire and use movement skills to respond in a variety of physical activity contexts and settings
engage in and enjoy regular movement-based learning experiences and activities.

Learning Outcomes

On successful completion of this course, learners will be able to:

use movement skills and learn through movement
recognise physical and emotional development
recognise the benefits of being healthy, safe and active
communicate and interact for health and wellbeing.

Stages of Learning at Preliminary to Level 1

This course focuses on progressing learners from an emergent to early intentional state. It encourages learners to develop their independence as they explore, participate and engage in the world around them. Expectations for learner achievement are set at four stages which are not associated with any set age or year level that links chronological age to developmental progress. As learners progress through these stages the level of coactive support required decreases as they proceed towards becoming independent learners.

Stage 1

Within Stage 1 learners experience a range of learning activities that will assist them to attend to and explore the world around them with as much independence as possible. Experiences are designed for learners at an emergent level. Learners require high levels of coactive support and focused attention from the teacher to assist them to engage, react and participate. Learners demonstrate some awareness and recognition of familiar people and routine activities.

Stage 2

Within Stage 2 learners are reliant on verbal and physical prompts to facilitate their learning. They begin to explore their world independently and engage in cause-and-effect learning activities. Learners are able to focus on structured learning activities for short periods of time. They respond to familiar people and events in a familiar environment and begin to use ‘yes/no’ responses.

Stage 3

Within Stage 3 Learners display the first signs of independence, are less reliant on partial physical prompts and respond more consistently to verbal and visual prompts and clear directions from the teacher. Learners begin to interact with their peers in social opportunities. They participate in structured activities alongside their peers and use pictures, photos and objects to communicate personal interests and experiences. They begin to use and link some familiar words and images to form a meaningful communication.

Stage 4

Within Stage 4 learners participate cooperatively in group learning activities with indirect supervision and gestural prompts. They express their feelings, needs and choices in increasingly conventional ways and combine and sequence key words and images to communicate personal interests and to recount significant experiences. They indicate beginning understanding of social rules and expectations and are beginning to reflect on their own behaviour.

Access

Learners can enter the course at any of the four stages depending upon their level of readiness or ability. Providers will determine the entry point for learners based on each learner’s level of readiness.

All learners have a right to an education that meets their needs through full participation and engagement with learning. Providers enhance the quality of all students’ learning through responsive and planned learning programs that optimise achievement using inclusive practices.

Learners will have access to appropriate resources such as professional support staff; (or adult assistance), and equipment such as assistive technology or modified facilities, as required. The Disability Standards for Education Act 2005 outline the obligations that educational providers must meet in supporting the needs of learners with disability through reasonable adjustments.

Adjustments include a range of supports and accommodations including but not limited to:

supportive learning environments
tailored delivery models
visual and organisational supports
multimodal learning and assessment opportunities
varying levels of prompting and adult assistance
access to appropriate technology.

‘Adjustment’ does not mean the lowering or removal of standards but rather it means allowing learners appropriate means to demonstrate their learning and achievement against standards.

In the instance of online, distance or flexible delivery, adjustments may be made in the delivery of the courses by providers to suit the individual student’s learning environment. This may involve differentiation to reflect the resources readily available to the learner within their home or community.

Pathways

Preliminary Health and Physical Education builds on foundation concepts emerging from the Australian Curriculum Health and Physical Education F-10.

Preliminary Health and Physical Education provides a potential pathway to other HPE courses: Sport and Recreation Experiences Level 1, Personal Care Level 1, Outdoor Experiences Level 1, Fitness Experiences Level 1, and VET Certificate I in Sport and Recreation.

After completing Preliminary Health and Physical Education, possible vocational pathways may include any role where physical literacy, healthy lifestyle, communication and positive team skills are valued.

Resource Requirements

When conducting activities off site providers of this course must ensure that their Risk Management practices and planning meet the requirements of the Department of Education’s Procedures for Planning Off Campus Activities (or equivalent), which are aligned with the Australian Adventure Activity Standards.

Providers must consider the needs for spaces, equipment and transport to community facilities and also ensure that activity leaders have current qualifications appropriate to activities being offered.

Course Size And Complexity

This course has a complexity Preliminary to level 1.

Each stage of the course has a size value of 5 or 10 or 15 depending upon learners’ needs. A learner will undertake a minimum of 50 hours study in this course, through to a maximum of 150 hours.

For example:

A learner might study Preliminary to Level 1, Stage 3 of the course and complete it in 50 hours. This learner might then study Preliminary to Level 1, Stage 4 of the course and require 100 hours to achieve this. After successful completion, this learner might then undertake a Level 1 in the following year.
In one year a learner might study Preliminary to Level 1, Stage 2 of the course and complete it in 50 hours. This learner might then also study Preliminary to Level 1, Stage 3 of the course and require 100 hours to achieve this.
A learner may study Preliminary to Level 1 Stage 1 in 150 hours.

Course Structure

This course is organised into four sequential stages. Learners can enter the course at any of the four stages depending upon their level of readiness or ability. Providers will determine the entry point for learners.

Course Delivery

The sequence of delivery is at the discretion of the provider. A personalised learning program will be developed for each learner, dependent on their needs. Not all learners will achieve all stages of the course content.

Decisions about the specific timing, sequence and model for content delivery is the responsibility of provider. Planning decisions should take into account local needs, available resources, learner profiles and readiness, system and community priorities.

Course Requirements

Content for Preliminary Health and Physical Education is organised within two strands:

Personal Social and Community Health
Movement and Physical Activity.

Learners are required to complete units of work across both strands of the course.

Course Content

This stage has a size value of 5, 10 or 15.

The Stage 1 course provides the basis for developing knowledge, understanding and skills for learners to lead healthy, safe and active lives. Students learn about themselves and experience simple actions and activities to keep themselves healthy and safe. Learners develop their awareness of others and explore the importance of familiar people.

Students learn through movement in a range of settings. They experience fundamental movement skills through structured movement activities and explore their environment. This establishes an awareness of body movements and their movement abilities.

At Stage 1 providers need to select focus areas that are age appropriate and reflect the physical, social and emotional maturation of the learner. The focus areas include, but are not limited to:

alcohol and other drugs (AD)
food and nutrition (FN)
health benefits of physical activity (HBPA)
mental health and wellbeing (MH)
relationships and sexuality (RS)
safety (S)
active play and minor games (AP)
challenge and adventure activities (CA)
games and sports (GS)
fundamental movement skills (FMS)
lifelong physical activities (LLPA)
rhythmic and expressive movement activities (RE)

Through a selection of one or more of the focus areas above, students will learn to:

identify self (self-awareness)
react as body parts are moved and named
react to significant people
react to people and sensory experiences
use facial expressions to indicate an emotion and demonstrate preference
experience health and safety actions
experience physical activities
experience their body being moved through a variety of positions and locations
experience a variety of physical and structured leisure activities
experience regular physical activities and begin to develop an awareness of how different parts of the body move
experience their body moving in relation to effort, space, objects and people
cooperate when experiencing physical activities and movement
experience body movement and demonstrate some basic movements
engage in physical activities.

Assessment

Criterion-based assessment is a form of outcomes assessment that identifies the extent of learner achievement at an appropriate end-point of study. Although assessment – as part of the learning program – is continuous, much of it is formative, and is done to help learners identify what they need to do to attain the maximum benefit from their study of the course. Therefore, assessment for summative reporting to TASC will focus on what both teacher and learner understand to reflect end-point achievement.

The standard of achievement each learner attains on each criterion is recorded as a rating of ‘C’ (satisfactory standard) according to the outcomes specified in the standards section of the course document.

A ‘t’ notation must be used where a learner demonstrates any achievement against a criterion less than the standard specified for the ‘C’ rating. The ‘t’ notation is not described in course standards.

A ‘z’ notation is to be used where a learner provides no evidence of achievement at all.
Internal assessment of all criteria will be made by the provider. Assessment processes must gather evidence that clearly shows the match between individual learner performance, the standards of the course and the learner’s award. Providers will report the learner’s rating for each criterion to TASC.

NOTATION ON EVIDENCE OF LEARNING

Some of the criteria standard elements use the terms reacting, responding and recognising.

In the context of this preliminary level course reacting/responding might be defined as:

an intentional repeatable and observable behaviour that can be interpreted simply, objectively and conclusively.

In the context of this preliminary level course recognising might be defined as:

intentionally signalling identification of (someone or something) through gesture, facial expression or sound from having encountered them before.

Quality Assurance Process

Each provider is responsible for ensuring the integrity and validity of their assessment results against the requirements of the course, including standards, and for maintaining records and documentation that will demonstrate the integrity, accuracy and validity of the award decisions they make each year.

Under Section 55ZN of the Office of Tasmanian Assessment, Standards and Certification Act 2003, TASC may give a provider written direction regarding the provision and assessment of an accredited other education course.

active play	Any form of regular physical activity that people do, which includes moderate to vigorous bursts of high energy, and which raises their heart rate and makes them ‘huff and puff’. Active play can occur indoors or outdoors, alone, with a partner or in a group. As well as giving learners an opportunity to be physically active, play can develop skills such as persistence, negotiation, problem-solving, planning and cooperation.
challenge and adventure activities	Physical activities designed to challenge students physiologically, behaviourally and socially in diverse contexts and environments. These activities include: initiative games, movement challenges (as individuals and in teams or groups), recreational activities in natural and outdoor settings and navigational challenges. With access to specialised facilities and equipment, and relevant teacher expertise, these activities can also include: adapted sport and recreation activities, bushwalking, camping, biathlon and triathlon, martial arts, rock climbing, canoeing and kayaking, cycling (mountain biking, BMX, road and track cycling), and surfing. These types of activities can give students opportunities to assess hazards and manage appropriate levels of risk.

food and nutrition	Refers to food groups and recommendations for healthy eating across the lifespan as well as sustainable strategies for healthy eating and nutrition, food labelling, packaging and food advertising.
fundamental movement skills	The foundation movements or precursor patterns to more specialised, complex skills in games, sports, dance, gymnastics and physical recreation activities. They provide the foundation for human movement and competent and confident participation in a range of physical activities. The fundamental movement skills to be developed through Health and Physical Education include: locomotor and non-locomotor skills– rolling, balancing, sliding, jogging, running, leaping, jumping, hopping, dodging, galloping, skipping, floating and moving the body through water to safety object control skills – bouncing, throwing, catching, kicking, striking.
games and sports	Modified games, traditional games or sports, culturally significant games and sports (such as traditional Indigenous games and games of significance from the Asia region) and non-traditional games and sports (including student-designed games). Most games and sports can be classified into invasion games, net and wall games, striking and fielding games and target games.
gender	Refers to the concepts of male and female as well as the socially constructed expectations about what is acceptable for males and females including behaviour, dress and interests. These expectations vary across history and different cultures. Legally, there are more than two genders, and a person may identify as male, female, neither male nor female or both.

interpret	To explain the meaning of information or actions.
lifelong physical activities	Physical activities that can enhance health and wellbeing across the lifespan including individual and group activities and active recreation activities. With access to specialised facilities, equipment and expertise, these activities can include swimming, tai chi, yoga, Pilates, bushwalking, recreational cycling and resistance training.
mental health	A state of wellbeing in which an individual thrives and can manage normal stresses of life, work and recreation. Social, emotional and spiritual resilience, which enables people to enjoy life and survive pain, disappointment and sadness.

minor games	Simple games, with few rules, designed to allow students to practise skills, tactics and strategies in a challenging situation.
movement challenges	Movement tasks that require individual students or groups of students to solve a problem to successfully complete the task. The solution may be communicated ion various modes (e.g. verbalised, documented or demonstrated physically).
movement concepts and strategies	These provide a framework for enhancing movement performance. Movement concepts (or elements of movement) explored in the curriculum include body awareness; spatial awareness; effort awareness; and relationship to/with objects, people and space. Movement strategies refer to a variety of approaches that will help a player or team to successfully achieve a movement outcome or goal. Movement strategies include moving into space to receive a pass from a teammate or hitting a ball away from opponents to make it difficult to retrieve or return the ball. Different games and sports may require similar activities or goals and will therefore use similar movement strategies to achieve success.
physical activity	Physical activity is a broad term that includes playing sport; exercise and fitness activities such as dance, yoga and tai chi; everyday activities such as walking to work, household chores and gardening; and many other forms of active recreation.
play	Play is an activity that is positively valued by the player, self-motivated, freely chosen, and engaging. People of all ages actively involved in play may be engaged in a variety of activities, independently, with a partner or in a group. Play can occur indoors or outdoors. It is closely tied to cognitive, socio-emotional, and motor development, and is an important part of developmentally appropriate learning. Benefits of a play can include persistence, negotiation, problem-solving, planning and cooperation.
practise (verb)	To repeat and rehearse an activity or exercise for the purpose of improvement or to maintain proficiency.
protective behaviour	Any safety action or strategy used in response to recognising early warning signs or potential dangers of a situation with the aim of prevention, risk reduction or harm minimisation.

recreation	An activity in which people enjoy participating during their free time. Recreation is often recognised as having socially worthwhile qualities. Active recreation requires physical exertion.
resilience	A capacity to deal constructively with change or challenge, allowing a person to maintain or re-establish their social and emotional wellbeing in the face of difficult events. It involves thoughts, feelings and actions. Resilience is an integral part of learning as it underpins the ability to respond positively to setbacks or mistakes.
respond	To react to a person or text.
rhythmic and expressive movement	Movement that is composed and performed in response to stimuli such as equipment, beats and sounds, images, words or themes. It includes creative movement, movement exploration ,and dance elements. With specialised facilities, equipment and expertise, it can also include circus skills, tai chi, yoga, rhythmic gymnastics and educational gymnastics.
safety	Relates to safety issues that students may encounter in their daily lives, recognising risk, making safe decisions and behaving in ways that protect their own safety and that of others. It includes recognising safe decisions that keep people healthy in situations and places such as school, home, on roads, outdoors, near and in water, parties, online, first aid, relationships and dating, and personal safety. Young people may seek out risks elsewhere, in environments that are not controlled or designed for them, if a play and physical activity provision is not challenging enough. Important learning can take place when students are exposed to, and have to learn to deal with, environmental hazards.
select	To choose in preference to another or others.
sexuality	A central aspect of being human throughout life. It is influenced by an interaction of biological, psychological, social, economic, political, cultural, ethical, legal, historical, religious and spiritual factors. It is experienced and expressed in thoughts, feelings, desires, beliefs, attitudes, values, behaviours, practices, roles and relationships.
sport	A human activity that has physical exertion, skills tactics and strategies as a primary focus, with elements of competition, and for which rules and patterns of behaviour governing an activity exist formally through organisations.
transitions	Internal processes or psychological reorientation people experience as a result of change, and usually involves establishing new behaviours or new ways of thinking before the change can work. Individuals experience transitions in different ways and at different rates. Transition involves three stages: a letting go of the way things are or used to be; a period of exploration and adjustment; and a final stage where new behaviours and ways of working evolve.
unfamiliar	Not previously encountered in prior learning activities.
wellbeing	A sense of satisfaction, happiness, effective social functioning and spiritual health, and dispositions of optimism, openness, curiosity and resilience.
