AS PE - Development of Competitive Sport Revision Session

Hi Team,

Today as discussed will be a sumary lesson of the work covered over the past few weeks and will help in preparation for the end of unit exam taking place on Wednesday Period 6.

The purpose of the lesson is to ensure we harness each others strengths and collate information by collaborating on tasks laid out in a circuit format.

Your learning objectives:

To gain a greater depth of knowledge around the impact of the development of competitive sport
To demonstrate your knowledge and understanding through differentiated exam style questions.
To work collaboratively to develop a set of resources that will benefit the whole group.
To identify areas of limitation that need addressing ahead of the end of unit examination.

Bring your creative brains to this one!

You may move around the room and access the work going on at other stations to help you.

You musn't ask for help from other members of the group, nor use text books/notes.

AS PE Lifelong Involvement - Lets Flip it!

Hi Lads,

As discussed in class, we're going to try out the 'flip the classroom' approach to learning this topic. The purpose of this is to try and develop you as independent learners. The way it works is that I will ask you to look at a specific area of study and ask you to research around it at home. We will then go over the topic and discuss the elements involved on your return to class. Please come to next lesson with questions to ask and points to raise for discussion. We will then be able to compound the knowledge back in the classroom, and hopefully give you a broader outlook on the topic area.

For our first attempt I would like you to look at Reformative Policies up to local initiatives on the presentation below. Be sure to watch the videos as they give useful insight into a couple of reformative poicies/initiatives. Try not to limit your study to just the presentation, as this only contains the basic facts. Try to find out more for each area, recent developments, examples etc.

Cheers,

Wrighty
