SHA4322 - Physical Education 2

Objectives:

On successful completion of the module, students will be able to:
Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of key principles relating to the teaching process and their impact on learning.
Evaluate the impact of model-based approaches within Physical Education.
Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of how scientific principles impact on effective movement and performance.

Content:

In relation to the teaching process, students will develop their understanding of Models-Based practice within Physical Education and Sport. Application of the different curriculum models (e.g. Teaching Games for Understanding, Sport Education, Cooperative Learning) will be enhanced through practical application in relation to the planning and delivery of Games in the curriculum.

The structural form of the human body and its components including musculature, skeletal form, systems and processes. The way in which physiological systems, bones and muscles work together to produce movement and the various ways in which the body produces energy to fuel this movement. Biomechanical principles that relate to the context of Games.

Learning and Teaching Information:

The teaching methods will include lectures, workshops and practical sessions. The integration of these three learning environments will facilitate dissemination of underpinning theory, group-based and student led learning and also the application of this learning within a teaching (practical) environment. The practical sessions will allow students to develop self and peer assessment skills and develop pedagogical awareness in preparation for potential future employment.

Hours: 14
Intended Group size: 30

Workshops
Hours: 6

Guided independent study
Hours: 160

Further details relating to assessment
Formative feedback will be given in relation to both the exam and practical assessment. This will be developed through peer assessment and verbal feedback given within workshops and practicals.

The exam component will assess understanding of physiological and biomechanical principles.

The presentation will allow the student to justify and explain the activities used to achieve specified learning within their lesson plan and clarify issues around safety and inclusion.

Integrated Asessment
At Level 4/end of Term 2, students will undertake an integrated assessment block which draws on learning from 2 modules from the programme. 20% of the integrated assessment will be from the Level 4 Professional Development and Placement module SEA4022 and 10 % from this module PE2 SHA4322, totalling 30%. The practical teaching that will be done in the integrated assessment will contribute 10% to this module. Students who do not take part in this aspect of the integrated asssessment will achieve 0%.
