Welcome to the 2014 Central Queensland Health and Physical Education (HPE) Conference.

This conference is part of a schedule of professional development events provided by

ACHPER QLD. As the peak body, ACHPER QLD is committed to supporting HPE teachers

through local events, conferences and networking and is pleased to return to Rockhampton

in 2014. Our capacity to provide this conference is in no small part due to our 2014 Gold

Sponsor, RHSports and conference sponsors MyCo Sports, Queensland Oztag and

Australian Futsal.

This year’s program was developed in consultation with local HPE teachers. It is designed to support the complex professional needs of HPE teachers, with a specific focus on teaching in regional Queensland. With the theme Making a Difference by Learning from Others, the focus of the conference is on creating and planning Prep to Year 12 HPE units of work. Local teachers have generously agreed to share practices that have worked for them. Their presentations are designed to stimulate ideas about how you can make a difference, promote healthy and active lifestyles and provide high quality HPE programs for your students, regardless of resourcing. You will be challenged to consider how your school, your students and the curriculum informs your planning, pedagogy and assessment. As always the conference will offer challenging and diverse presentations suitable for primary, middle and senior phases of schooling. ACHPER QLD is delighted that Dr Shane Pill of Flinders University has agreed to present at the conference. Shane’s session on ‘Designing PE programs to meeting the Australian HPE Curriculum’s intention to teach for understanding and health promoting PE’, will provide some key insights into the Australian Curriculum and its potential application in your school setting. ACHPER QLD has been able to keep costs of the conference down due to the support of our sponsors, RHSports, MyCo Sports, Queensland Oztag and Australian Futsal and advertisers Cengage, HART Sport and the Runaway Bay Sport & Leadership Excellence Centre. Delegates will gain maximum value from the conference through their active participation and engagement with our presenters, sponsors and trade exhibitors. I congratulate you on your attendance. Queensland students need enthusiastic educators who embrace new curriculum, fresh ideas and useful technology in their daily teaching. Ongoing changes to curriculum and technology, along with increasing demands for accountability in schools are a fact of life. ACHPER QLD hopes this conference will assist you to face these challenges and make a difference for your students.

Friday 9 May 7.45am: Registration Opens and Trade Exhibition

8.15am: Welcome and Housekeeping Dr Ben Williams, Griffith University Gilbert Room

8.30am: Keynote: How do we design our PE programs to meet the Australian HPE Curriculum's intention to teach for understanding and health promoting PE? Dr Shane Pill, Flinders University Gilbert Room This address aims to begin provocatively by prompting HPE teachers to move beyond the often stated observation that many PE programs achieve little more than keep students "busy, happy and good". The address will consider what it means to teach for understanding in PE. Possibilities for school PE curricula designed for learning, that are evidence based and informed by learning experiences that promote meaning and purpose in the minds of students, will be proposed to inform student engagement and achievement within the new Australian HPE curriculum. 9.15am: Back to the future? The past, present and (possible) futures of the Australian Curriculum: Health and Physical Education Dr Ben Williams, Griffith University Gilbert Room

This presentation will provide an overview of the structure, organisation and content of the Australian Curriculum: Health and Physical Education (AC:HPE) in its current form. We will then identify the similarities and differences between the AC:HPE and HPE curriculum documents from the past 20 years to illustrate new and enduring aspects of the curriculum. This section will be followed by a summary of the status of the AC:HPE and its relationship to the Federal Government's Review of the Australian Curriculum. The presentation will conclude with opportunities for questions and discussion from the floor. 10.00am: Explicit Teaching in HPE Lorraine Nielsen, DETE (CQ) Gilbert Room Explicit Instruction has been demonstrated to be a highly effective, research driven method of learning. Catering for all levels of students, this structured teaching approach can be used for both theory and practical lessons to maximise learning. In this workshop, Lorraine will provide an interactive and fun demonstration of Explicit Instruction for both the theory and practical lesson. As the signature pedagogy for DETE schools in Central Queensland, Lorraine will share the basic structure, key delivery tools and strategies for differentiation. 10.45am: Morning Tea & Trade Exhibition

11.15am: Technology in HPE: Using ICT to complement existing HPE practices Margaret-Mary Opstelten, Gladstone West State School Gilbert Room Use ICT to complement your existing Physical Education program. Explore strategies that enable your students to confidently and competently engage in physical activity and sport. Enhance teaching and learning while integrating ICT effectively and efficiently into Physical Education sessions. During this session you will investigate how apps (such as Coach’s Eye, Video Delay, WProducer, Lolo 7 Minutes, Assessmate, Easy Assessment, i-nigma, Bit Breaker, Zumba Dance etc) allow you to provide student feedback, improve assessment and provide assessment evidence. Discover some of the innovative ICT tools, devices and gadgets that can invigorate and refresh your Physical Education sessions. 12.00pm: Connecting Curriculum and Linking Learning: HPE and development of General Capabilities Lorraine Nielsen, DETE (CQ) Gilbert Room What broader contributions to learning is HPE best placed to make? How can learning activities in HPE support and potentially extend students' literacy, numeracy or ICT capabilities? Are lessons promoting creative and critical thinking? What personal and social capabilities are being developed and how can we create clear opportunities to challenge and extend these? How can we connect with students' ethical and intercultural understandings?

This session will explore the content descriptions with a focus on the potential for links to be made to development of the General Capabilities identified in the Australian Curriculum. It will encourage participants to put student learning needs, school and community contexts at the fore of curriculum planning. 12.45pm: Networking Tips from a Crusty but Connected Old Codger Peter Reaburn, Central Queensland University Gilbert Room I am NOT a networker by nature. I am NOT a pushy or self-serving person. However, over many years I have managed to cultivate and maintain professional relationships with like-minded colleagues across my professional and personal interests. Not only has my professional life benefited but my postgraduate and undergraduate students have reaped many rewards from my network. Successful networking sees all parties benefiting in some way if the connection is based on the needs of all parties and based on trust and mutual respect of time constraints.

I will be sharing my experience in networking by sharing my “Top 10 Networking Tips” but also workshopping the session so we can learn from each other. 1.30pm: Lunch & Trade Exhibition

2.15pm: Maximising Engagement in a Practical Setting (Practical Session) Dr Shane Pill, Flinders University Gilbert Room This session will cover how a constraints-theory of skill learning explains Game Sense pedagogy, and how this approach achieves Australian HPE Curriculum propositions directing teaching for understanding of movement through inquiry processes and playing with purpose. As both volume of practice and quality of practice are central to skill learning, teaching approaches (such as Game Sense) that maximise engagement in practical settings are necessary if students are to move through the curriculum meeting the expected learning described in the achievement standards. 3.15pm: Advocating for HPE Geoff Hadwen, Head of Primary, Rockhampton Grammar School Gilbert Room In this session, we will look at where Health and Physical Education fits within a wider school context and how HPE teachers can further advocate for their subject. This session will also address some of the key aspects that have particular value from a Headmaster’s perspective, in the attempt to assist HPE teachers in such promotion and advocacy. 3.45pm: Tim Tam Slam: Assessing Student Learning in Health and Physical Education Dr Ben Williams, Griffith University Gilbert Room In this presentation, delegates will engage in discussion about skills and strategies for collecting evidence of student learning and performance in HPE. The discussion will focus on concrete examples of these skills and strategies and the ways in which these concrete examples illustrate abstract assessment principles. The session will also require participants to eat a chocolate biscuit (dietary restrictions permitting).

4.30pm: Sharing Practices and Assessment Facilitated Dr Ben Williams, Griffith University Gilbert Room We encourage teachers to bring along sample assessment tasks and other materials for collecting evidence of student learning (e.g., observation checklists) to share and discuss in light of the previous presentation on assessment. This presents an opportunity to share practice and learn from others. 5.15pm: Conference Close
