Developing literacy and numeracy in health and physical education

What it covers

Teachers of all discipline areas, including health and physical education, must share in the responsibility of educating literate and numerate students. In this unit, the teaching of literacy and numeracy is examined from a number of current theoretical perspectives, drawing on contemporary research. You will learn how to analyse tasks for the literacy and numeracy demands in health and physical education, implement appropriate teaching strategies that maximise student learning, and address the literacy and numeracy needs of students who come from diverse backgrounds.
