OVERVIEW

The equipment and rhythmic gymnastics course deals with the elements that make up the technique, teaching, assistance of the basics of artistic and rhythmic gymnastics, and of the large and small tools of traditional gymnastics.

AIMS AND CONTENT

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

The teaching contributes to the achievement of the educational objectives of the Bachelor of Science in Sports and Sports Activities by providing the student with the knowledge and a good foundation of understanding the field of the subject.
Propose diversified activities that develop the creative aspect to foster the ability to "problem solving" in different fields such as education/school and motor/sports.

10 theoretical hours: the course aims to acquire an adequate knowledge and basic competence on methods and teaching of the disciplines related to technical-combinatorial sports, artistic gymnastics for women and men, rhythmic gymnastics and general gymnastics.

20 hours of practical exercises: acquire the ability to set at an educational, rehabilitation and psychomotor level the pre-acrobatic to the free body and the use of large sports equipment, small equipment of rhythmic gymnastics.

As learning outcomes at the end of the course, the student must:

• be able to perform the basic elements proposed in the program, according to the principles of rhythmic gymnastics and artistic gymnastics, through the analysis of posture and modulation of muscle energy to achieve a conscious management of body segments
• knowing how to recognize and describe the technical contents that characterize the specific motor actions of the two modules
• know how to properly use the specific terminology of gymnastics
• be able to design and build learning paths differentiated according to age and working environment (school, pre-sport and sports...)
• be able to apply the skills acquired in the course of technical-combinatorial sports study to design and build learning paths differentiated according to age and working environment (school, pre-sport and sports...)
• knowing how to transfer and modify the skills characterizing gymnastics to structure, according to the principles of a varied and multilateral learning, specific skills of other sports.

PREREQUISITES

Basic knowledge on the terminology gymnastics of the 1st year.

TEACHING METHODS

The lessons have a total duration of 30 hours.

The method of administration of the course includes theoretical and practical lectures in presence.

Teaching material will be made available via Aulaweb.

In case of certification of specific learning disability, disability or other special educational needs, please contact both the Department 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.

EXAM DESCRIPTION

Practical and written

ASSESSMENT METHODS

Assessment of the specific technical and didactic knowledge and skills of the different disciplines, through practical tests to the large tools and the body, individual and theoretical tests (structured tests). The practical tests will preferably take place during the academic year, in the form of ongoing verification. The test, which consists in the demonstration of technical skills of artistic gymnastics, is passed with a score of 18/30.

The final grade, expressed in thirtieth, comes from the average between the practical test and the theoretical test.

Particular situations may require completion of the exam with oral questions (one or two questions worth one point each). Individual projects may be required in specific cases.

Written test (0-30 points)

The learning will be verified by a final test consisting of 11 multiple choice questions (one correct and two wrong) covering the different disciplines. Vote in thirtieth. Each correct answer will be assigned the score 1.00 (wrong answers and zero answers =0.00). The test is passed with a score of 18/30.
