Module ILA-4010:
Moving More

Move More Sit Less: Leading by Example 2023-24
ILA-4010
2023-24
School Of Medical And Health Sciences
Module - Semester 1
10 credits
Module Organiser: Jamie Macdonald
Overview

A series of pre-recorded lectures will provide an understanding of the main concepts of sport and exercise science and how these concepts can be applied to achieve a healthier lifestyle. These lectures will give specific guidance on how to enhance your own health and wellbeing, and how to apply these skills to others. Each lecture will be accompanied by a reading list accessible through the University library.

A residential will then provide opportunities to allow you to evaluate your own health and wellbeing, using physiological outcome assessments. This baseline information will be used to complete a needs assessment on yourself. Your own needs assessment will inform a case study where you will implement an intervention on yourself. Using the skills practiced on yourself, you will then attempt to enhance health and wellbeing of others around you.

Assessments will enable you to evidence your knowledge in a case study focusing on how you have ‘moved more’ in your own life. You will then implement your knowledge through an intervention completed on others and produce a report on how you have led them to adopt a more physically active lifestyle.

-excellent - 70% •Excellent knowledge of sport and exercise science concepts of relevance to adopting healthy lifestyle •Excellent progression through the steps of behaviour change to a healthier lifestyle •Detailed understanding with no factual errors •Critical analysis showing evaluation and synthesis of ideas •Originality in approach, interpretation, and/or voice •Extensive independent research •Logically defended arguments with evidence for all claims •Highly focused and well structured •Excellent presentation with accurate and appropriate expression •Correct format and appropriate referencing style
