Assessment | |||||||||
Unaided Work: | Preparation for the test on a teaching module for students of grades 1-3 – self-defence postures and movements, using movement games, acrobatic techniques, falls backwards and sideways. Preparation for the test on a teaching module for students of grades 4-6 – recognition of the situation and selection of optimal technique, falls from different positions on different parts of the body, defence against blows and kicks. Preparation for the test on a teaching module for students of grades 7-12 – getting out of opponent’s holds, grasps and strangle holds, defence against hits using a throwing technique. Creation of teaching methodological material that can be used later in teaching self-defence to others – safety and rules, description of games, techniques, classification of self-defence techniques, description of injury prevention while teaching self-defence techniques. Development of a self-defence techniques teaching plan. | ||||||||
Assessment Criteria: | For a student to get a successful assessment, the following will be assessed: - attitude towards education, development dynamics, active participation in classes (10%); - independent work performed by the student (10%); - practical examination of the study course (60%); - theoretical examination of the study course – exam (20%). | ||||||||
