Exclusions
Description In this module students will be introduced to movement and learning as it relates to sport coaching and physical education (PE). Building from theories of learning, perception and the control of movement, students will develop a broad knowledge of how movement is created and controlled. Research evidence will be examined, and consideration given to how coaches and PE teachers might ensure that their practice is research informed. Finally, students will translate the theoretical content into practical advice for coaches and PE teachers and consider how research can inform the design of practice and skill development.
Learning Outcomes By the end the module, students should be able to:
  • Understand the main theories of motor control and learning as they apply to coaching and physical education
  • Translate research evidence so that it can be used in developing practical coaching/physical education sessions
  • Design aspects of a coaching/physical education session using theoretical principles
  • Evaluate different coaching approaches based upon research data.
