Graduation Competency 5

All students completing the upper division Kinesiology degree program should:

demonstrate knowledge of and skill in a broad variety of motor skill and fitness activities.

   

 Objectives

 Outcomes

 Example  1 Describe content and conceptual knowledge in kinesiology; the environmental, task, and organismic constraints impinging on movement. Examinations, lab reports, essays, videos, reflective papers, term papers, mini-research projects.
 Example  2 Describe the systematic body knowledge related to motor behavior prior to effective application. Auditory record, portfolio of athletic and fitness activities, certifications (e.g., NSCA, IDEA, WSI), proficiency tests.
 Example  3 Demonstrate understanding of movement experiences in the context of acquiring skill and fitness and in learning a novel skill. Abstract, journal documentation, video, photo, auditory record, portfolio of athletic and fitness.

 Objectives

 Outcomes

   1 Completing the course work that provides content and conceptual information in kinesiology. Exams, reports, term papers, other.
   2 Laboratory experiences, field work, and observation. Tangible records, observation reports, lab assignments, success in applied settings, journals, video, pictures, other
   3 Students will develop an understanding of movement consistent with kinesiological principles, developmental sequencing of skills, management of the learning environment, and safe exercise practices. develop instructional plans (e.g., lesson plans, exercise programming)
   4 Students participate in a variety of experiences which provide measures of fitness components. a. Prepares a critical self-evaluation of health related fitness and develops a personal fitness plan based on the self evaluation, b. prepares a critical evaluation of health related fitness and develops a fitness plan based on the evaluation.
   5 Students understand fundamental and motor skill acquisition. a. demonstrate motor skill, b. video analysis of skill acquisition
   6 Students interact with diverse populations in developing fundamental movement skills and fitness internship, field experiences, or community programs
   7 Students develop skills and advocacy strategies to promote and maintain lifelong wellness for diverse populations. case study based on self-audit of lifelong fitness
