Teaching methods and learning activities

The evaluation of knowledge and skills obtained in the Curricular Units Athletics II and III and the fulfilment of their objectives is performed in accordance with the legal rules stablished at the University of Porto and the Evaluation Standards of FADEUP approved by its Pedagogical Council. As this subject incorporate the completion of the internship, the evaluation is governed by the Article 10 of the integrated internship regulation Methodology II and III of the specialization in Track and Field Training, in the 1st cycle of Sport Sciences.

Evaluation Type

Trabalho escrito	25,00
Total:	100,00

Calculation formula of final grade

The evaluation is continuous without final examination with a posterior reflection and discussion between the tutor teacher and the students about the aspects considered relevant for the formation process. Therefore the students should:

Attend at least 75% of the planned sessions; thematic seminars, brainstorming sessions and discussion about the traineeship

To have a weekly practice frequency greater than or equal to a minimum of three training sessions

To prepare and help in the orientation of the preparation of the athletes throughout the sports season

Ensure the minimum number of weekly presences in training and competition defined by the tutor teacher

Discuss the internship report with the tutor teacher

 

For the students in the internship regime, the head coach, technical coordinator and/or responsible tutor at the club where the internship is performed will be consulted, being its appreciation considered by the tutor teacher in the evaluation.
