    IVET Sport & Rec: Deliver Rec Sessions - E2 Session Types and Communication Techniques

    In this episode, Zali and Sarah explore the five types of recreational sessions and the communication techniques leaders use with different participant groups. They cover how non-instructional leadership differs from coaching, the distinction between teaching, training, and coaching, and how communication shifts across five key situations depending on participant profile. Key Takeaways: - Five session types: non-competitive physical activity for leisure, games-based activities, after-school and holiday care programs, creative programs, and social interaction programs. - Recreation leaders facilitate enjoyment and participation, not technical skill instruction. - Teaching, training, and coaching are distinct approaches that may all be used within a single session. - Communication techniques adapt across five situations: establishing rapport, maintaining group cohesion, giving instructions, motivating participants, and providing feedback. - Each technique varies depending on participant profile, including children, adolescents, adults, older people, and people with disability.

    IVET Sport & Rec: Deliver Rec Sessions - E6 Delivering the Activity Session

    In this episode, Zali and Sarah tackle the biggest topic in the series. They cover sequencing and pacing, leadership styles, instruction and demonstration using the DEDICT model, monitoring technique and safety, giving feedback, responding to individual difficulties, and facilitating group interaction. Key Takeaways: - Sequence activities for skill progression and pace flexibly based on participant skill, energy, safety, and engagement. - Three leadership styles apply: autocratic, democratic, and laissez-faire. Leaders may shift between all three within a session. - The DEDICT model structures demonstration: Demonstrate, Explain, Demonstrate again slowly, Imitate, Coach, Test. - Feedback should be specific, timely, and encouraging. Praise in public, correct in private. - Respond to individual difficulties through observation, collaboration, and tailored modifications. - Facilitate group interaction by setting clear rules, encouraging inclusiveness, and managing conflicts sensitively.
