Objectives


Acquire knowledge about the different disciplines of Gymnastics.


Understand the Gymnastics features as sport - competitive and non-competitive areas.


Understand the institutional framework of the sport, through the practice of basic gymnastic skills.


Understand the learning stages to develop gymnastics skills.


Understand the manual help.


Learning outcomes and competences


Acquiring knowledge about the correct approach of the gymnastics basic elements.


Acquiring knowledge about the biomechanics of movement, in particular, understand the placement and alignment of body segments, the motor actions present in each element, the axes rotation and the rhythms differences during performance.


Acquiring skills on the manual help - understand the positioning and placement of the hands, identify the point of intervention/manipulation and track the movement of the performer.


Acquiring theoretical and practical knowledge of the gymnastics disciplines in order to be able to teach and use different resources.


Acquiring knowledge about how to use the didactic materials in order to create learning situations that allow a gradual development in a safety environment.


Acquiring knowledge about general and specific physical preparation to develop the gymnastics skills.

Teaching methods and learning activities

Stimulate a “reflected practice”. The lessons will integrate moments of practice and time for theoretical explanations.

Evaluation Type

Distributed evaluation without final exam

Eligibility for exams

The students should attend at least 75% of given lessons.

 

Calculation formula of final grade

The evaluation is permanent and completed by practical tests and a theoretical test.

Practical test – 75%

Theoretical Test – 25%


The minimum score required in each practical test is 8,0 values.


The students are approved when the final score on this discipline is equal or superior to 9,5 values.

Examinations or Special Assignments

Not applied.

Internship work/project

Not applied.

Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)

Students who are not able to do the evaluation in the dates previously marked by the teacher, for health reasons (injury, surgery or prolonged recovery from disease), should speak with the teacher to mark another date, which can not go beyond the last day of the semester.

Classification improvement

Not applied.

Observations

The final score will be rounded to one decimal place.
