Presentations

This pre-conference brings together clinical expertise and whole-child wellness to equip school nurses and coaches with the skills, knowledge, and networks they need to thrive in today’s complex school environments.

Attendees will leave with immediately applicable strategies to strengthen engagement, build inclusive learning environments, and design experiences that inspire students not only to participate in Physical Education but to value movement throughout their lives.

The session provides an overview of David’s recent publications that investigated the assessment practices of Victorian secondary school PE teachers in the context of invasion games and sports at Year Levels 7-10.

Participants were introduced to the fundamental principles of disc sports, including the philosophy of Spirit of the Game, fair play, and self-officiating.

Participants will leave with practical strategies and ready-to-use tools to cultivate student questioning and inquiry in their own classrooms.

This workshop complements the earlier workshop that described David’s mixed-methods research into the assessment practices of Victorian secondary school PE teachers in the context of invasion games and sports.
