Digital literacy

Health and Physical Education enhances digital literacy by helping students to safely access online information and services to manage their health and wellbeing. Students develop understanding of the role digital tools play in their lives and relationships. They explore the nature of digital tools and the implications for establishing and managing relationships.

Students learn about ethical online behaviour, including protocols and practices for using digital tools for respectful communication. Students use digital tools for communicating, collaborating, creating content, seeking help, accessing information and analysing movement performances. They use a range of digital tools to analyse, measure and enhance movement performances. Students access and critically evaluate health information, products and services using digital tools. They also use digital tools to develop personalised plans for nutrition and physical activity participation.
