Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
In this module there is an emphasis on a ‘learning by doing’ pedagogy. The learning and teaching approach will be focussed on a series of practical workshop / seminars, where you will be exposed to issues related to the application of science to sport performance. In order to be able to fully participate in the workshops you will be asked to undertake specific background reading, which will be released on a weekly basis, and to prepare presentations to show and develop your understanding. In groups, you will be asked to undertake a needs analysis with a client, so they will have to apply the theoretical and practical skills of the support scientist, collaborate with other team members in the ongoing monitoring of the support programme, and work within the professional code of conduct.
|
Formative assessment is presented in seminar work, tutor led discussion, case studies and the ongoing presentation of a portfolio of evidence. Formative feedback is an integral part of the use of case study and simulation exercises with structured debriefing in this module. You will learn in small groups, presenting information about your cases to each other in the form of a professional case meeting. Each case presentation lasts for 15 – 20 minutes and is immediately followed by 15 minutes for reflection and tutor led debriefing and commentary. The tutor and peer debriefing provides immediate feedback on your performance and is constructed as a learning conversation (Denning 2010) to explore the issues that emerged from the case. You are encouraged to analyse aspects of your performance, including competence in assessment and intervention design skills, application of evidence based practice, situational awareness, team working and problem solving skills that will be held in a portfolio of evidence. Simulation scenarios therefore provide opportunities for those of you with different learning styles, especially those who are more responsive to learning by doing, by observing and by reflecting on your practice.
|
You will have a structured summative assessment, through two assessment points. The first assessment is a group piece of work in the form of a client report detailing how the client's needs were assessed, the results of the assessment and an intervention plan with a clear design, plans for delivery and strategies for management. The second assignment is a 10 minute individual reflective video presentation of the support process. You will be asked to reflect upon the practical and ethical issues related to codes of professional conduct within sport science, and to detail how effectively you worked as part of a sport science team. It will examine and evaluate how knowledge is constructed through your own reflections upon the support process.
