Summary
There are risks involved with all outdoor activities. They make the experience challenging, adventurous, and ultimately rewarding. But how we assess and manage those risks is the key to having fun in the great outdoors. This programme addresses the nature of risk, including positive and negative consequences and emphasises the importance of personal responsibility in managing risk. An overview of how to identify, assess and reduce risks in recreational settings is provided. We meet Peta Whitford, Education Development Officer at Orienteering Victoria who walks us through the potential risks and rewards of outdoor activity.

Summary
This programme is a comprehensive guide to the classification and management of sports injuries. Wendy Braybon, head physiotherapist at the Victorian Institute of Sport, shows us how to classify and manage soft tissue injuries (such as sprains, skin abrasions, lacerations, and blisters) and hard tissue injuries (fractures and dislocations). We learn to apply the RICER technique for managing soft tissue injuries and the TOTAPS and DRABC techniques for assessing and managing hard tissue injuries. Throughout the programme we see detailed graphics and real-life examples of different injuries, talk to Paralympian Jessica Gallagher, and see dramatised scenarios demonstrating key injury management techniques.

Summary
At some level, most students have been coached in one or more sports. However, all coaches are different; most inspire us to continue sport, unfortunately some have the opposite effect. This programme looks at the skills a good sports coach is required to possess such as: leadership, management, enthusiasm, and good communication. We examine three different coaching styles: authoritarian, distant yet approachable, friendly. The main characteristics of a respected coach - honesty, integrity, extensive knowledge and high expectations are also discussed. We see how coaching varies for different skill levels, ages and abilities. Students learn that coaches are a powerful influence on our involvement in, and enjoyment of sport.
