Trefnydd: Mr Kevin Williams

The aim of this module is to provide students with core physiological testing skills and to ensure a sufficient level of understanding through academic and practical experience.

• Anthropometry, Somatotyping and Bodycomposition Assessments
• Blood Pressure and Pre Screening.
• Indirect Maximal Oxygen Uptake Procedures
• Direct Maximal Oxygen Uptake Procedures
• Spirometry (Closed Loop and Open Loop)
• Capillary Blood Sampling (Hematocrit, Heamoglobin, Blood Lactate)
• Methods of Assessing Aerobic Endurance Performance
• Methods of Assessing Anaerobic Power and Capacity
• Flexibility Assessments
• Communication Skills
• Interactive and Group Skills
• Data interpretation
• Application of theory into practice
• Assessing safety and ethical issues

dda

C (50-59%) Mediocre – A clearer understanding of assignment requirements. Demonstrated ability to complete all tests. Evidence of physiological understanding with few inaccuracies and misconceptions evident. Tests may have needed more rehearsal as well as providing more detailed instruction for the participant. Clearer understanding of safety considerations.

B (60-69%) Good/Very Good– A very good understanding of assessment requirements. Demonstrated ability to complete all tests. A clearer understanding of physiological concepts. Very few inaccuracies and misconceptions evident. Well-rehearsed with sufficient instruction. A very good understanding of safety considerations.

trothwy

F (0-29%) Very poor/fail – Failure to successfully perform physiological assessments with mostly irrelevant or incorrect responses to theoretical questions. Little or no instruction provided to participants, little or no knowledge of safety considerations prior to testing.

E (30-39%) Poor – Insufficient understanding of the Physiological assessments and the corresponding theoretical concepts. Little instruction provided to participants. Poor understanding of safety considerations.

D (40-49%) Pass - Basic understanding of the physiological assessments and theoretical concepts. Test may be partially complete or accuracy may be questionable. Limited physiological understanding. Poorly rehearsed and therefore lacks direction and depth. Inaccuracies and misconceptions evident. Basic instruction and communication with participant. Basic understanding of safety considerations.

Module failure that prevents you passing the year will require resit assessment and attendance at Supplementary Assessment Week

rhagorol

A (70-100%) Excellent - An excellent understanding of assessment requirements. Demonstrated ability to complete all tests with excellent responses provided to theoretical questions. No inaccuracies and misconceptions evident. Very well-rehearsed with excellent communication and instruction. An excellent understanding of safety considerations.
