Self-perception

Understands self in relation to movement and physical activity and recognises personal strengths and areas for development.

Self-perception

What it could look like:

  • Knowing personal qualities, strengths and areas for development in relation to movement and physical activity
  • Knowing when to receive and seek feedback, and who to seek it from

Pre-foundational - Stage 0

I have the potential to learn through movement and physical activity.  At this stage I have not yet developed relevant attitudes and emotions associated with myself, and movement and physical activity.

Foundation & Exploration - Stage 1

Experiences and explores personal preferences in relation to movement and physical activity.

  • Recognising games that are liked or not liked
  • Expressing, showing or explaining, movements you are good at

Acquisition & Accumulation - Stage 2

Identifies strengths and areas for development, practising strategies to improve them.

  • Practising specific skills with the intention of improvement
  • Being aware of strengths and how to take advantage of them

Consolidation & Mastery - Stage 3

Evaluates strengths and areas for development, devising strategies to support growth.

  • Drawing on feedback from self and others to gain insight into strengths and areas for development
  • Prioritising areas for improvement and choosing appropriate strategies to support development

Transfer & Empowerment - Stage 4

I am empowered by movement and physical activity.  I continually transfer my skills, knowledge and feelings to different movement and physical activity contexts.  I use combinations of elements from all four domains, and apply my learnings through movement and physical activity to other aspects of my life.

  • Persevering with a fitness class even though there are many reasons you could find not to (e.g. work/study deadlines). You know that you will be engaged in the activity when you get there, and that you will recognise the benefits to your fitness and your mental health after the class. You sign up for some of the popular but more intense lunchtime sessions as you feel these will motivate you to maintain your goals. You also think that you could encourage some colleagues and friends to join, as you think they would feel welcome at the class.
