Integrated course unit module: APTITUDE AND INSTRUMENTAL EVALUATION FOR SPORT

Learning objectives

The course aims to provide the students the basic skills of measurement and evaluation in the field of physical education. We will examine how to evaluate the coordination skills, abilities conditional functional capacity and analysis of technical movements. The candidate, in possession of an appropriate technical and methodological knowledge, must know how to organize at the end of the course an evaluation protocol refers to a specific aspect of teaching sports or tactics.
