| Course description | The PEP2 course follows on from the PEP1 course in Year 1 of the BEd PE Programme. Together they aim to develop the students' understanding of the critical scientific, aesthetic and social discourses informing the professional in action within the context of Education and Physical Education. The PEP2 course will focus on two of the aforementioned perspectives - science and sociocultural.
Professional action presupposes an understanding of varied disciplines of human enquiry, and therefore the Physical Education Perspectives course prepares students to draw on a range of understandings in their teaching. The course content, teaching and learning strategies adopted and modes of assessment aim to establish the academic rigour and professional preparation commensurate with a foundation undergraduate Initial Teacher Education programme. |
