Assessment
Unaided Work:
In independent work, the student studies special literature, develops homework and practices performing athletics exercises to develop various physical qualities, improving his movement skills and skills in the selected exercises by adapting them to different sports. Conducts control exercises and regulatory research in your chosen sport.
Assessment Criteria:
Carry out regular and systematic learning of athletics exercises, develop homework independently, demonstrate skills and abilities in learned exercises, as well as theoretical knowledge. The student receives a differentiated assessment for completing the study course. The final grade is recorded in the score book in a 10-point system according to LSPA requirements. In order to receive a positive evaluation for the study course, the total evaluation must correspond to at least 4 points (minimum level). If the sum of the student's points is less than four points, then the test must be repeated. The student receives an evaluation in points by summing up the set number of points, evaluating knowledge, skills and competences in the performance of individual tasks (independent work, productive activity in seminars, test, attitude, student's individual development dynamics). In order for the student to obtain a successful assessment, the requirements of the differentiated test: attitude towards education, dynamics of development, active activity in practical lessons (40%); independent work done by the student (40%); study course practical test (20%).
