Overview
The module will provide an opportunity for students to develop and refine higher skills of relevance to this context (e.g., an awareness of learning styles, application of psychological skills and motor learning literatures). As such students will develop techniques (e.g., reflective practice, performance profiling) to help them continue to enhance their skills and further their career post-graduation. Students will also learn how to facilitate the skill acquisition of others. In order to provide students with a meaningful experience and setting in which to develop such skills and techniques, students’ study and development will be housed within the context of progression towards (or actually attaining) National Governing Body awards in physical education.
