Collaboration

What it could look like

Understanding the importance of communication and implementing concepts such as:

• Conflict resolution
• Leadership
• Empathy
• Cooperation
• Accepting differences

Pre-foundational - Stage 0

I have the potential to learn through movement and physical activity.  At this stage I have not developed the ability to interact effectively with others.

Foundation & Exploration - Stage 1

Establishes and explores how to work constructively and cooperatively with others during movement and physical activity.

• Demonstrating cooperative behaviour e.g. sharing a ball with another person
• Being patient with others

Acquisition & Accumulation - Stage 2

Understands and implements strategies to support constructive collaboration during movement and physical activity.

• Working cooperatively with others during movement and physical activity
• Contributing ideas within a team to support positive outcomes e.g. suggesting a defensive strategy to stop an opponent scoring points

Consolidation & Mastery - Stage 3

Generates meaningful and desirable outcomes when collaborating with others in movement and physical activity.

• Implementing strategies to diffuse or resolve conflict
• Exhibiting leadership behaviours in group settings

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.

• Moving to a new community and having the confidence to join a new group/club (e.g. tennis, parkrun) with the purpose of building new relationships. You select this particular group/club as you have previously enjoyed similar sports/activities (e.g. badminton, athletics), and feel you have already developed the knowledge and physical competency required to progress in the group/club.
