EXSS2035: Physical Activity and Society

Semester 2, 2021 [Normal day] - Remote

This unit provides an understanding of the structure of the health system in Australia. It explores the relationships between physical activity and population health, including the impact of public policy on promoting physical activity and reducing sedentary behaviour. Students will also learn how age and gender influence exercise capacity and how physical activity can influence changes across the lifespan.

Assessment summary

  • Assessment 1: Physical activity needs assessment. Students work in pairs to conduct a physical activity/sedentary behaviour needs assessment for a specific population group (e.g. culturally and/or linguistically diverse and/or specific life-stage/age/sex group): identify and describe the population, and examine with respect to physical activity behaviours, barriesr, facilitators, attitudes, needs. Students must each (individually) submit a group assignment contribution form with this assessment. Students must attempt this assessment in order to remain eligible to pass the unit of study. Standard late penalties apply.
  • Assessment 2: Intervention presentation. Building on work submitted for assessment 1 and working in the same small groups as assessment 1, students will develop and present a public health intervention aiming to improve population levels of physical activity and/or sedentary behaviour for the selected population group. Presentation slides are to be submitted by Monday 11:59pm in advance of the tutorial session in which presentations will be conducted. While this item appears as “non-weighted/variable” in the assessment schedule in the UoS outline, these slides form part of the Assessment 2 mark, and will be graded during the presentation itself. Therefore any changes to presentation slides after submission will incur a late penalty for the whole assessment, as per standard late submission rules for assessments. Students must attempt this assessment in order to remain eligible to pass the unit of study. Students must each (individually) submit a group assignment contribution form with this assessment. Standard late penalties apply.  
  • Assessment 2a: Peer marking of presentations. Students will be assigned to mark two (2) other presentations (a different population group from the one they studied themselves) from within their tutorial group/presentation session. A marking rubric will be provided to structure the marking and feedback. While this item appears in the assessment table in the online UoS outline as “non-weighted/variable”, students must complete and submit peer marking within two hours of the completion of their tutorial group’s presentations; failure to submit peer marking forms will result in a deduction of 5 points from their (individual) total assessment mark for Assessment 2 (i.e. maximum grade for Assessment 2 for a student not completing and submitting Assessment 2a will be 20% of the final grade, rather than 25% of the final grade for the unit of study).  
  • Assessment 3: Intervention Resource. Working in the same small groups as assessment 1 and 2, students will develop and submit a client resource to support adoption and adherence to the intervention proposed in Assessment 2. Students must each (individually) submit a group assignment contribution form with this assessment. Students must attempt this assessment in order to remain eligible to pass the unit of study. Standard late penalties apply.
  • Assessment 4: Final Exam. A written exam drawing on content from the whole semester. Students must attempt this exam in order to remain eligible to pass the unit of study.
  • Other notes: 
  • In addition to the specific requirements for assessment tasks noted above, students must achieve an overall cumulative mark of at least 50% to be eligible to pass this unit of study.
  • Detailed information for each assessment can be found on Canvas.

Standard late penalties apply.

Academic integrity

The Current Student website  provides information on academic integrity and the resources available to all students. The University expects students and staff to act ethically and honestly and will treat all allegations of academic integrity breaches seriously.  

We use similarity detection software to detect potential instances of plagiarism or other forms of academic integrity breach. If such matches indicate evidence of plagiarism or other forms of academic integrity breaches, your teacher is required to report your work for further investigation.

You may only use artificial intelligence and writing assistance tools in assessment tasks if you are permitted to by your unit coordinator, and if you do use them, you must also acknowledge this in your work, either in a footnote or an acknowledgement section.

Studiosity is permitted for postgraduate units unless otherwise indicated by the unit coordinator. The use of this service must be acknowledged in your submission.

Simple extensions

If you encounter a problem submitting your work on time, you may be able to apply for an extension of five calendar days through a simple extension.  The application process will be different depending on the type of assessment and extensions cannot be granted for some assessment types like exams.

Special consideration

If exceptional circumstances mean you can’t complete an assessment, you need consideration for a longer period of time, or if you have essential commitments which impact your performance in an assessment, you may be eligible for special consideration or special arrangements.

Special consideration applications will not be affected by a simple extension application.

Using AI responsibly

Co-created with students, AI in Education includes lots of helpful examples of how students use generative AI tools to support their learning. It explains how generative AI works, the different tools available and how to use them responsibly and productively.

Attendance and class requirements

Students are encouraged to attend tutorials to optimise engagement with the material and participate in class discussion. Content in tutorials will assist students in completing Assessment 1 and 2.

Assessment 2 and 3 are undertaken in small groups, therefore it is strongly advised that students attend tutorials leading up to week 9 since students will work on assessment materials with their group during these tutorials, and can ask questions and receive feedback from teaching staff during these classes to help optimise the development of their Assessment 2 and 3 submissions.

Attendance will be recorded at tutorials; and attendance at the presentations tutorial session in week 9 is compulsory. Students unable to attend their tutorial class in week 9 must apply for special consideration: https://www.sydney.edu.au/students/special-consideration.html 

Study commitment

Typically, there is a minimum expectation of 1.5-2 hours of student effort per week per credit point for units of study offered over a full semester. For a 6 credit point unit, this equates to roughly 120-150 hours of student effort in total.
