What you’ll be able to do
Summarize the concept of assessment and identify the criteria for a good assessment instrument.
Recall the concept of research, various research designs, and the importance of research in physical education.
Develop skills in quantitative reasoning, including: manipulate quantitative information to create models, and devise solutions to problems using multi-step arguments using quantitative information, evaluate models and arguments using quantitative information, and express and interpret in context models, solutions and arguments using verbal, numerical, and computational techniques.
Apply the sustainability principles and/or frameworks to addressing the challenge of producing assessment instruments in the psychomotor, cognitive, and affective domains, focusing on the five national standards.
Describe the social, economic, and environmental dimensions of conducting a research project, including writing methods, analyzing data, discussing results, drawing conclusions, and presenting findings, and identify potential trade-offs and interrelationships among these dimensions at a level appropriate to the course.
