At the end of the course, you will have to: - To apply the various types of laboratory and field tests. - To know how to monitor training and competition conduct in endurance sports. - To assess the impact of strength, speed and agility training on sports performance. - Analysing performance in cyclic and acyclic sports. - To process data regarding functional assessment in sports performance. TEACHING METHODS The course consists in practical technical activities (ATP) During the ATP, the notions seen in the classroom will be resumed and practical applications on these topics will be addressed. SYLLABUS/CONTENT Practical applications of the following topics covered in the theoretical module “Test di valutazione funzionale” Functional assessment of aerobic and anaerobic aspects of performance: Functional assessment of aerobic and anaerobic aspects of performance, Field Testing: Functional assessment of speed, repeated sprint ability and agility: Functional assessment of muscular strength and endurance: RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY For the texts, please refer to the teaching sheet of the theoretical module TEACHERS AND EXAM BOARD EMANUELA LUISA FAELLI Ricevimento: Upon agreement with the teacher, e-mail: emanuela.faelli@unige.it Tel: 0103538184 Studio: DIMES, Viale Benedetto XV, 3 (Insitute of uman physiology) LESSONS LESSONS START The lessons will take place in the 1st semester The class schedule will be available at the following link: https://easyacademy.unige.it › portalestudenti Class schedule The timetable for this course is available here: Portale EasyAcademy EXAMS EXAM DESCRIPTION The exam will be practical and will focus on the creation and application of tests for the functional evaluation of athletes in different sport disciplines This teaching is part of the integrated course of " Methods for functional assessment and research in the field of adapted physical activity” including: FUNCTIONAL EVALUATION TEST ATP- FUNCTIONAL EVALUATION TEST RESEARCH BASICS The exam will be considered passed with a score of 18/30. The final grade of the integrated course will derive from the weighted average of the grades obtained in the 3 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). See also the "Other information" section of this syllabus. ASSESSMENT METHODS The exam will verify the acquisition of basic knowledge of the teaching and will allow to evaluate the ability to apply the acquired knowledge. The exam will require the ability yto create and apply a battery of tests for athletes belonging to different sports disciplines, in relation to the required performance objective. FURTHER INFORMATION Cases with a certified DSA, disability or other special educational needs are advised to contact both the Departmental contact person, Prof. Nicola Girtler, and the lecturer at the beginning of lessons in order to agree on teaching and examination methods that, while respecting the teaching objectives, take account of individual learning methods and provide suitable compensatory/exemptory tools recognised by the University DSA service.
