Learning outcomes

Unit Learning Outcomes express learning achievement in terms of what a student should know, understand and be able to do on completion of a unit. These outcomes are aligned with the graduate attributes. The unit learning outcomes and graduate attributes are also the basis of evaluating prior learning.

On completion of this unit, students should be able to:

analyse the role, value and requirements of the PDHPE Stage 4–5 syllabuses within the K–12 continuum and broader educational contexts

apply working knowledge of the PDHPE Stage 4–5 syllabuses to design lessons, assessments, resources and activities informed by cross-curriculum priorities and general capabilities

develop and apply teaching and learning priorities—including differentiation, disability and inclusion, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives, digital technologies, literacy and numeracy—to the design of lessons, assessments, resources and activities

evaluate and apply teaching, learning and assessment strategies informed by current pedagogical frameworks to develop student knowledge, skills and engagement
