4.1. Assessment tasks (description of tasks, marking system and assessment criteria)
The students must demonstrate that they have achieved the intended learning outcomes
by the following evaluation activities:
1: The student in this subject will be evaluated by a global test.
The evaluation is done according to the agreement of the 22 December 2010 by which the regulation of learning assessment standards of the University of Zaragoza is approved.
4.1. Evaluation activities
The students must demonstrate that they have achieved the intended learning outcomes through an overall assessment test consisting of a theoretical and practical assignment and a written test.
Global Test:
Evaluation Test 1: Test.
The assessment of the extent of the knowledge acquisition and understanding of the conceptual and practical knowledge will be performed through a written exam. It will consist of a double test:
1) Based on multiple choice questions, which will provide 5 possible answers, having the
Students to choose the one that they consider correct. 1/3 points are deducted with each failure (50% exam mark).
2) It also may include short questions, problem solving, interpretation of graphs, design protocols or anything related to practical sessions (50% of the note contents exam).
The final grade will be obtained as the sum of the note of Parts 1 and 2, granting a rating of 1 to 10.
The objective test will contribute 85% to the final grade.
Evaluation Test 2: Work
Students will have to carry out the review and common discussion of 3 scientific articles previously agreed with the teacher and all related to the main topic or study population of the final masterwork that the student has chosen.
The oral presentation of this work will be required to pass the course. It is scored from 0 to 10 and will contribute 15% to the final grade.
Summary:
To pass the course it is necessary to obtain a score greater than or equal to 5 in the evaluation of the examination and work. The weighted overall rating will be computed as follows: theoretical examination 85% and 15% for work.
Tests for the second call for each academic year.
According to Article 10 of Title II of Regulation Evaluation cited above, the second evaluation will be undertaken using a global test in the period established for this purpose by the Governing Council in the academic calendar.
It will consist of a similar work and test described above:
1) based on multiple choice questions, which will be provided with 5 possible answers, the student must choose the one that considers correct. 1/3 will be deducted with
each failure (50% of the exam).
2) which may include short questions, problem solving, interpreting graphs, protocol design and everything related to the contents worked in the practical sessions (50% of the exam).
The final grade will be obtained as the sum of the grades of Parts 1 and 2 with a rating from 1 to 10.
Evaluation Test 2: Work
Students will have to carry out the review and common discussion of 3 scientific articles previously agreed with the teacher and all related to the main topic or study population of the final masterwork that the student has chosen.
The oral presentation of this work will be required to pass the course. It is scored from 0 to 10 and will contribute 15% to the final grade.
Summary:
To pass the course it is necessary to obtain a score greater than or equal to 5 in the evaluation of the examination and work. The weighted overall rating will be computed as follows: theoretical examination 85% and 15% for work.
5.1. Methodological overview
The methodology followed in this course is oriented towards achievement of the learning objectives. It is based on an initial acquisition of theoretical knowledge and its application on practical tasks. It is intended that students are able to apply in practice those theoretical and practical concepts that they have acquired during the course.
A wide range of teaching and learning tasks are implemented, such as theory sessions, practice sessions, practical problems, case studies, etc. in order to bring students to situations that they would confront in a field job of physical activity and health.
Classroom materials will be available via Moodle. These include a repository of the lecture notes used in class, the course syllabus, as well as other course-specific learning materials.
