Student learning Outcomes
Students will plan a series of related lessons for middle and high school students
a. Align well-written objectives for a sport/dance activity, movement concepts, and affective learning that are aligned with Georgia state and national standards, and a valid, reliable assessment strategy. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 3.a, Georgia TAPS Standards 1 & 2 )
b. Design experiences for middle and high school learners for the development of specialized sport, dance, and/or gymnastics skills, sports strategies, techniques, and rules, health-related fitness, and affective growth. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 1.b, Georgia TAPS Standard 1)
c. Design experiences appropriate for varying levels of ability, rate of learning, and style of learning. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 3.b, Georgia TAPS Standard 2)
d. Demonstrate the ability to plan for motivation and accountability strategies to facilitate learning. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 4.a, Georgia TAPS Standard 2)
e. Plan and organize management routines that are effective and efficient. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 4.d, Georgia TAPS Standard 8)
f. Identify safety concerns and create a safety plan to prevent injury. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 3.c, Georgia TAPS Standard 8)
g. Anticipate adaptations for individual learners so that all learners achieve the learning objectives. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 4c, Georgia TAPS Standard 4)
Students will teach developmentally appropriate lessons to middle and/or high school students.
a. Present lessons with (a) clarity, (b) appropriate, accurate cues, (c) logical progression through parts of a lesson, (d) efficiency in transitions from one learning task to another, (e) maximal practice opportunities for all learners, (f) management and practice prompts, and (g) appropriate communication. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 4.b, Georgia TAPS Standard 3)
b. Provide accurate and appropriate feedback to learners. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 4.e, Georgia TAPS Standard 3)
c. Identify individual group learning problems, and appropriately modify/adapt learning activities. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 3.d, Georgia TAPS Standards 1, 2, 4)
d. Effectively and efficiently collect valid and reliable assessment data representative of student performance toward achieving the lesson objectives. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 5.a, Georgia TAPS Standards 5, 6)
Students will accurately reflect using in-depth thinking on planning, teaching, and assessment of performance from a live lesson.
a. Use data from observation systems to reflect on present performance and improve future instruction. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 6.b, Georgia TAPS Standard 9)
b. Evaluate psychomotor, cognitive, and affective learning of individuals and groups according to objectives using formal and informal measures of evaluation. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 1.b, Georgia TAPS Standard 5)
c. Plan subsequent learning experiences based upon the learner’s responses. (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 4.c, Georgia TAPS Standard 2)
d. Evaluate the performance of teaching based upon in-depth reflection (i.e., time analysis, content analysis, etc.). (SHAPE Initial PETE Standard 6.a, Georgia TAPS Standard 10)
