Planning and participating in outdoor activity with attention to risk and environment.
These are the statements the Sport, Lifestyle and Recreation syllabus makes about Outdoor Recreation. Dux records each one against the questions you answer, so you can see which of them you have actually been tested on and which have never been asked.
Route, equipment and contingency planning, and the assumptions that cause trouble.
Map, compass and conditions, and decisions made when they disagree.
Leave-no-trace principles and their justification in fragile environments.
Hazards specific to outdoor settings, and the emergency response sequence.
Leadership, decision-making and conflict when a group is tired and remote.
Using outdoor environments without degrading them, and the tensions between access and conservation.
SLR - School-Based Assessment Shape is 50 marks in 75 minutes. Questions on Outdoor Recreation are not one shape repeated: the command word decides what the marker is looking for, and the mark value decides how much of it. These are the ones Sport, Lifestyle and Recreation uses.
Dux writes practice for this module in exactly these shapes, so the drill is the same task the paper sets — not a general knowledge quiz with the module name on it.
Outdoor Recreation is module 3 of 4 in Sport, Lifestyle and Recreation. Students routinely lose marks because a question spans two modules, so the neighbouring modules are worth reading next to this one.
Dux diagnoses Sport, Lifestyle and Recreation dot point by dot point, then writes questions in the shape this course marks. Written answers come back marked against the bands.
