This unit brings students into the clinical practicum environment to consolidate broad clinical knowledge and skills into contemporary exercise physiology practice in real-world settings. Students will consider their emerging professional scope of practice across a range of contexts and develop their reflective practice to explore their role and responsibility in cultural safety, inclusiveness, innovation, and advocacy as a future health care professional. The unit activities and assessments that wrap around core clinical placements embed Indigenous perspectives and will use Indigenous pedagogy (Eight Ways) as a framework for building a portfolio of practice.
