Description
This course provides participants an opportunity to understand, experiment and reflect on pedagogies and practices in physical education and classroom management strategies. Using game and play as both a strategy and a tool can be a powerful motivator for supporting student engagement in meaningful lessons within a healthier classroom environment. In this course, teachers will be developing pedagogical, content, and assessment tools, and ways to link ideas with curriculum knowledge. This approach to teaching and learning can promote effective teaching (NZC) and valued outcomes for diverse ākonga and kaiako.
