This course teaches the basis of motor activity in developmental age and offers ideas for methodology and teaching methods which can be useful for a first orientation in the diverse fields of professional intervention. General problems in children will be presented alternating theoretical moments to practical exercises, in order to be of reference for future courses during the course of study.
Acquisition of basic skills related to the methods and techniques of motor activity. Understanding of physiological and biomechanical processes at the base of the motor skill learning facilities. Knowledge of the principles of skilled human performance.
At the end of the course, you will have to:
The course includes a subdivision of lessons as follows: frontal lessons and practical lessons.
The frontal lessons will be carried out in the classroom while the practical lessons will be carried out in the gym.
During the practical lessons, the notions seen in the classroom will be resumed and the practical applications of these topics will be addressed.
At the end of each lesson, Educational Innovation tools will be used to facilitate the consolidation of the information given during the lesson just completed.
In case of certification of specific learning disability, disability or other special educational needs, please contact both the School contact person, Prof. Nicola Girtler, and the lecturer at the beginning of the lectures to agree on teaching and exam methods which, in compliance of the teaching objectives, take into account individual learning methods and provide suitable compensatory/dispensatory tools recognized by the University SLD Student Service.

PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES IN THE PEDIATRIC AGE
The exam will be written: multiple choice quiz.
This teaching is part of the integrated course of " Motor activities in the developmental age”.
The quiz will consist of 15 closed-ended questionnaires and it will last 20 minutes.
Each correct question will be awarded 2 points out of 30 while each incorrect question will correspond to 0 points out of 30.
The exam of the integrated course will be considered passed if all three tests have achieved a score of at least 18/30.
The final grade of the integrated course will derive from the weighted average of the grades obtained in the different modules that are part of the integrated course.
In case of certification of specific learning disability, disability or other special educational needs, the University legislation and regulations on disability and SLD are applied (https://unige.it/disabilita-dsa/studenti-disabilit%C3% A0-normative).
The written exam will verify the acquisition of the basic knowledge of the teaching. The questions will allow to evaluate the ability to apply the acquired knowledge in both theoretical and practical fields. You will have to be able to connect and integrate the knowledge learned during the lessons with the knowledge acquired during individual study. The written exam (multiple choice quiz) will mainly focus on the topics covered during both theoretical and practical lessons and will aim to evaluate not only the achievement of an adequate level of basic knowledge, but also the acquisition of the ability to analyse critically the questions that will be asked during the exam.
It is recommended at the beginning of the course, to register on Aulaweb in order to receive and always be updated on the details of the teaching.
