Physical Education: developing the understandings, ideas and strategies for getting children active in line with the P.E. curriculum
 
 
 


This self-paced on-line course focuses on providing teachers with ideas, approaches & strategies for developing childrens’ abilities in athletics, game playing, gymnastics & dance, outdoor & adventure pursuits and in fostering aquatic competence.

The on-line format of the course enables you to study when and where you want to learn. Content is divided into 5 modules which you can complete in any order between July 1st and August 27th 2010.

Participants are encouraged to interact with one another using the communication tools (forum, chat, e-mail) provided by the CPD College learning system. Active facilitation throughout the course provides expert interaction, guidance and feedback for all participants. Assignments and questions which call for critical reflection, self-analysis and a reasoned response punctuate this highly interactive web based course.

On completion of the course the participant will be presented with their own time record, excercise content and approval by the course facilitator as their CPD record to keep.
