Core 2 Factors Affecting Performance Program 2015

Core 2 – Factors Affecting Performance Program 2015 Unit Title Core 2 – Factors Affecting Performance – How Does Training Affect Performance? 6/12 Unit The Syllabus for Core 2 states: “This compulsory module examines the various factors that affect performance. In this 3 Weeks Description module, students explore the physical and psychological bases of performance. They experience and critically analyse approaches to training and skill development and investigate the contributions of psychology, nutrition and recovery strategies to performance.” This unit addresses “How does training affect performance?” and therefore, examines: energy systems, types of training and training methods, principles of training, and the physiological adaptations in response to training. Students learn this content through a variety of teaching methods ,which cater to the learning strengths of my students. The unit also covers How can psychology affect performance? How can nutrition and recovery strategies affect performance? And How does the acquisition of skill affect performance? These cover content including nutrition, supplementation, recovery strategies, motivation, anxiety, psychology, skill acquisition, characteristics of the learner, the learning environment and how skill and performance is assessed. Rationale This is a differentiated program. The students in class come from a varied cultural background including Anglosaxon, Samoan, New Zealander, Pilipino and Sudanese. There are various points in the unit that divide the students into support, core or extension learning groups. The support group of students with literacy and numeracy difficulties will be supported with learning tasks that require them to make short written responses with simple text, as well as a variety of other teaching & learning strategies such as:  Scaffolds and chunking of strategies and content  Visual/Spatial cues – mind-mapping, colour-coding, pictures on slideshows, videos  Verbal instructions supported by written text  Literacy – cloze passages and multiple choice quizzes, glossaries, vocab lists

In addition to these students X, Y & Z with specific literacy disabilities will be provided with further scaffolding that may include exam style questions with introductions or half written answers which need to be brought to their conclusion. These students may also require more time to go through the information, and so getting the basic content at home where they can work through it at their own pace could be helpful.

The reason for employing such teaching strategies to the support learning group is to encourage reading and language development and verbal cues. These strategies also apply across all students, with the Core and Extension groups performing more difficult variations of tasks to enable them to further develop and challenge their knowledge and skills.

The teaching and learning strategies that have been selected are based on information sourced from research about how students learn and the learning style surveys. The learning styles are wide and varied, although visual and social are the more frequent preferences in the class. Research suggests that for visual learners, strategies such as scaffolding verbal/written tasks are helpful (see Hammond & Gibbons, 2005; ILSA, 2010). Other strategies for visual learners involve those with pictures/images, 3-dimensional shapes, use of colour and symbol; with the capacity to draw to annotate work. The social learners prefer to work in groups and to have opportunity to discuss new knowledge with a partner. Peer tutoring is relevant for these social learners as well as the opportunity to express to others what they understand and chance to seek clarification from their peers concerning their understanding. Further research also indicates that the use of formative assessment can be used to make learning visible and is one of the top ranked teaching and learning strategies for improving student results (see Hattie, 2012; Waack, 2013). Along with these teaching and learning strategies the unit also includes visible thinking routines such as “think puzzle explore” and “I used to think…now I think” which help deepen student understanding of concepts (see Palmer, 2005). There are also self-learning activities, particularly the PowerPoint presentations students work through at home. These PowerPoints have recorded audio as well as the slides. Some include videos etc to communicate the basic content in an accessible format. The unit includes a variety of kinaesthetic activities to cater to the students in the class as well as practical application, which often allows the students to apply their newly learnt knowledge to sporting contexts that they are interested in. The unit includes a range of exam style questions to give the students practice before their half yearly and yearly exams. The unit also has a variety of activities that provide feedback to the students, including feedback from peers and the teacher. Feedback is one of the major contributors to successful learning and helps make student learning visible (see Hattie, 2012; Waack, 2013)). I have attempted to embed strategies like the above to increase the engagement and outcomes of the students in the class. Major Contributing Outcomes Outcomes A Student: A student: H7 – Explains H16 – devises methods of gathering, interpreting and communicating information about health and physical activity concepts. the H17 – selects appropriate options and formulates strategies based on the critical analysis of the factors that affect performance and safe participation. relationship between physiology and movement potential H8 – Explains how a variety of training approaches and other interventions enhance performance and safety in physical activity H9 – Explains how movement skill is acquired and appraised H10 – Designs and implements training plans to improve performance H11 – Designs psychological strategies and nutritional plans in response to individual performance needs Order 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Content Formative Energy Energy Principals of Principals of Physiological Physiological Types of Types of Practical assessment Systems Systems Training Training Adaptations to Adaptations to training training & Training Training Topic Quiz Order 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Content Nutrition Nutrition Supplementati Supplementati Recovery Recovery Motivation Motivation Anxiety Anxiety on on Strategies Strategies Order 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 Content Psychology Psychology Stages of Skill Stages of Skill Characteristics Characteristics The Learning The Learning Assessment of Assessment of Acquisition Acquisition of the Learner of the Learner Environment Environment Skill & Skill & Performance Performance Out- Students learn about Students learn Learning Activities Resources Reg com to es How does training affect performance?

Students complete the questions on training and performance to check their current level of knowledge.

Students swap with each other and mark the questions, which are then handed to the teacher to help with learning strategies & content.

Students are given vocab lists relevant for the topic.
