The course will comprise theoretical lectures, theoretical-practical sessions and practical teaching/fieldwork sessions. The b-learning system will be used to provide teaching materials. For continuous assessment, students will have: one attendance check and one practical assessments (final mark: 0.2 × Attendance + 0.5 × Practical assessment + 0.3 × Discussions). The requirement for a minimum mark of 9.5 in each assessment component, in addition to achieving a final weighted average of 9.5 or higher, reflects the Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education and Sport's commitment to academic rigour and the quality of education. This requirement aims to ensure that students demonstrate the acquisition of essential competences across all components of the course module, promoting a solid education, professional responsibility and academic merit, which are fundamental to ethical, critical and competent practice within the profession.
