Game applications
In these modules students will develop knowledge, understanding and skills that promote confidence and success in a range of games and sports. Students will investigate elements of movement in selected activities and aspects of team dynamics as they develop competence and positive attitudes towards participation.
While it is expected that students will explore a range of performance activities in examining module concepts, they will need the opportunity to specialise in order to develop high levels of competence. For students studying a 40 hour module there may be scope to do a detailed investigation of several selected activities.
As a result of studying this module, students will be able to skillfully and confidently participate in a selected game or sport. This may then lead to an increased prospect of long-term involvement in this form of physical activity. Students may undertake further detailed study in areas such as an independent research project of a chosen activity or in seeking qualifications as a coach, umpire or referee.
Athletics
In this module students will develop the knowledge, understanding and skills necessary to participate in and analyse athletic programs. Students investigate types of athletic events, ways to improve participant performance in athletics, the ethical and organisational responsibilities of participants and current approaches to specific events.
