4Changes to the PDHPE HSC Syllabus
5- Core 1 - Health Priorities in Australia
- The content in this core has been reduced and
there - is a lot more guidance within the syllabus to
show - what students are required to know in both scope
and - depth.
- The major area of reduction is the removal of the

- play in achieving better heath for all
Australians
6- Groups experiencing inequities has been moved
from the first to second focus question and more
guidance is given for this section. - Priority areas has changed due to a changes in
NHPAs. - Preventative chronic diseases, injury and
mental health now studied with similar framework - Aging population is new
- Ottawa Charter is to be applied to health
promotion initiatives and not NHPAs
7Core 2 - Factors Affecting Performance There has
been a reduction in the total content of this
core which should allow an increase in the level
of practical application. The focus question
How does the body respond to aerobic training has
been deleted.
8- Immediate physiological responses to exercise
gone to preliminary course - Adaptations to training becomes part of the
first focus question (which is similar apart from
this) - Psychology is similar
- Nutrition has had hydration deleted but new
section of recovery has been included - Skill acquisition section learning process
and rates of learning have been deleted with
physical environment being replaced by a new
concept of the performance elements - Last three dots points have been streamlined
under assessment of skill.
9- Option 1 The Health of Young People
- There has been a major streamlining of the
content in this option. - Major health issues and skills and actions has
been made more manageable.
10- Option 2 Sport and Physical Activity in
Australian Society - 4 focus questions rather than 5
- Made more current in the issues to be
discussed. - Culture has been integrated into the national
identity section
11- Option 3 Sports Medicine
- Focus question What ethical questions are
raised by the increased use of sports medicine
has been removed. - Less content throughout most other areas.
- Injury rehabilitation includes return to play
aspects of ethical issues.
12- Option 4 Improving Performance
- Only have to study 2 training types now with
more consistency about level of study for each. - Focus now on planning rather than coaching and
competition - Drug use and technology now part of ethical
issues.
13- Option 5 Equity and Health
- Focus questions are the same titles but have
been reordered. - Previous syllabus was full of lists for ATSI

37Core 2 Factors affecting performance
38- Session overview
- Whats new
- Teaching and learning activities
- Writing answers in the HSC
39Types of Training - Anaerobic When discussing
anaerobic intervals focus needs to be on
intensity and rest. Use specific activities to
highlight differences between ATP-CP and Lactic
Acid energy system training. Example
Event Training distance Rest Repetitions Sets
100 metres 40 metres 45 seconds 10 5
800 metres 200 metres 2 mins 4 4
40(No Transcript)
41- Muscular Hypertrophy
- Resistance training using medium to heavy weights
will lead to - the production of more myofibrils
- (contractile part of the muscle)
- Increased storage of glycogen within
- the muscle
42- Fast and slow twitch muscle fibres
- Fast twitch fibres need to be linked to power
sports and training eg. throwing and jumping - Slow twitch fibres need to be linked to
endurance activities and training eg. triathlon
and road cycling

44- Recovery Strategies
- The aim of recovery is to allow athletes to
increase their level of training or performance
following a previous training or performance. - Physical
- Neural
- Tissue damage
- Psychological
45Neural Strategies During high intensity work,
chemicals within muscles can cause a lowering of
the ability of the Central and Peripheral Nervous
Systems to deliver stimulation to muscles (i.e.
they fatigue). Hydrotherapy and massage assist
with the removal of these chemicals and the
recovery of the neural pathways.
46Tissue damage strategies Muscle soreness and
DOMS occurs due to muscle fibres being torn and
damaged in a minor way during high intensity
activity. The use of cryotherapy and compression
garments such as skins forms part of the RICER
treatment which assists with the rehabilitation
of these minor tears.
47The performance elements When movement skills
are taught in isolation and not learnt in a game
context it more it difficult to develop an
understand how these are used during a
game. Practice sessions should be game like so
that decision making can be practiced in a real
life setting. Strategic and tactical development
occurs within a game sense environment.
48Teaching Strategies Include practical
applications for as many things as you
can. Examples 1. Skill acquisition juggling a
soccer ball Use this for both characteristics of
skilled performance and stages of skill
acquisition. 2. Strength training Have
students undertake a training session, utilising
a range of activities, weights, exercise speeds
and reps and ask students assess who the
different activities would be useful for. OR View
video footage of training sessions and have
students assess
49Teaching Strategies Use net based applications
such as youtube. Students to create videos /
presentations / websites to show understanding.
50- Writing answers for HSC exams
- Start early write answers based on requirements
within the syllabus - e.g. Analyse each energy system.
- Explain the difference between anxiety and
arousal.... - Always provide a model for each response your
require. - Provide an example paragraph for students to
use - Jointly construct an answer
51Writing answers for HSC exams Provide the words
which will help students to understand the key
BOS words e.g. Analyse this will lead to, as a
result, following this Evaluate is
effective in, a positive affect on
performance Give students the paragraph headings
and the examples you are expecting them to
include. Follow up and provide feedback every
time work is given to students. Back yourself as
a teacher to provide the information and skills
required by the students
