Teaching Methodologies
▣Teaching and Classes: T, expository; PT, experimental/laboratory; PL, data collection, direct observation of behavior, PL. ▣ Exclusively continuous assessment unit [100% = 20 points]: 1. 50%: Practical exam/oral presentation; 2. 30%: Experimental work, in the laboratory or data collection field; 3. 20%: In-person participation in PL data collection classes (no initial time tolerance in relation to the notified time and place). ▣Frequency/continuous/periodical assessment: Approved if ≥60% in 2 and 3. ▣Exam assessment (resource/improvement/special): if you meet the following specific conditions for access to the exam [point 8 of the 13th article of the Academic Regulations of the 1st Cycle of Studies ($) of the ESE-IPC]: 1. Classification in the experimental work ≥60%; 2. Attendance at PL classes for data collection ≥ 90%. ▣ Exam with theoretical (70%/100%) and practical (30%/100%) tests in the final classification. Oral admission: cf. with $.
Learning Results
1. Know the fundamentals and applications of Motor Development (DM) as an area of study of motor behavior (CM).
2. Understand the basic concepts and fundamental terminology used in DM.
3. Identify and understand development variables and indicators.
4. Know the evolution of the main concepts, identification processes of variables and morphological and body composition indicators.
5. Understand the variability of the development process, and major internal and external influences.
6. Analyze the process of human development starting from the design of development stages, from the perspective of maturation and development of motor action.
7. Know the instruments and techniques of analysis, evaluation and control of the DM and apply such instruments in the observation and analysis of the Motor Control
