Question 1

What is NCEA AS 92018 about?

Accepted Answer

This standard asks you to write about how doing a sport or physical activity (repeated and in one specific discipline) affects your wellbeing, using a Māori health model to explain it. You'll need to write about three different experiences from that activity and reflect on how each one influenced different parts of your health and wellbeing.

Question 2

What do students need to do for AS 92018?

Accepted Answer

1. Choose one sport or physical discipline and one Māori health model (like Te Whare Tapa Whā) to use throughout your portfolio 2. Describe three different distinct movement experiences from your chosen sport and explain how each one affected different parts of your wellbeing 3. Use specific personal examples from your actual participation, including details like what happened, what you did, names, dates, or measurements 4. Explain the 'why' behind how the experience influenced your health—show your reasoning, not just what happened 5. Write a final reflection that draws together what you've learned and shows how this might affect your future involvement in movement

Question 3

What's the difference between Achieved, Merit, and Excellence for AS 92018?

Accepted Answer

Achieved: You describe how your movement experiences affected your wellbeing using a health model with specific personal examples, and explain what happened and how it influenced you. Merit: You explain in detail both how and why each movement experience influenced your wellbeing, use multiple specific examples with reasoning, and show understanding of the connections between experiences and health dimensions. Excellence: You evaluate how your experiences influenced your wellbeing by discussing all dimensions of your chosen model, provide in-depth personal evidence, show how the dimensions interconnect, and explain how this understanding will shape your future movement choices.

Question 4

What mistakes do students typically make in AS 92018?

Accepted Answer

1. Not distinguishing between a movement context (the sport itself) and a movement experience (a specific thing that happened during that sport)—students often describe the whole season or activity instead of three separate distinct experiences 2. Choosing contexts that are too broad (like 'striking games' instead of 'badminton') or mixing multiple sports instead of sticking to one discipline throughout 3. Making links about how the experience improved their skill or performance rather than explaining how it influenced their actual wellbeing and hauora
