Description


As a professional in physical exercise, the student of the Double Degree in Physiotherapy and Sciences of Physical Activity and Sport is responsible for the prescription, assessment, programming and quantification of the loads of a process of training.

The subject of training theory and practice (II) addresses the methodological foundations for strength and speed training programming. 

Learning outcomes


1. Demonstrate the bases and foundations of sports training, the response and biological adaptation to the load, to know, classify, design and execute efficiently and safely methods of strength and endurance training, range of motion and speed, with the particular study of the most suitable for children and young people, for their improvement and that they favor their maximum performance in adulthood.

2. Carry out the correct administration of field protocols, suitable for the evaluation of the manifestations of strength and endurance in children and young people to efficiently determine the personalized administration of the methods and the various components of the load that characterize them, for the improvement of the intended structural and formal aspects.

3. Demonstrate knowledge of the fundamentals of scientific and technological advances in strength and endurance training for sports performance in young men and women and adults. Identify and perform the correct administration of training methods for the development of excellence in these qualities applied to sports performance, as well as control and evaluation procedures to prescribe the ideal loads to ensure the intended improvements, according to the different sports specialties.

Working methodology


The methodology of the subject will be carried out combining face-to-face classroom time, with autonomous work time, with the support of the virtual learning environment. The percentage of time the student spends is distributed as follows:

 

Activities

ECTS

Face-to-face sessions in the classroom (theory presentation, seminars, personalized tutorials)

Theoretical presentations with audiovisual support, simulations, role-playing games, group work, application of practice to theory, problem-based learning (ABP), presentations by students

2.4

Self-employment

 

Personal study, problem solving, information search (bibliography, webography), guided work (questionnaires, wikis, debates, forums ...), model reproduction, video capsules, problem solving

3.6

 

Both in the face-to-face sessions and in the autonomous work, the student will work individually and in work groups.

Each ECTS is equivalent to 25 hours of student dedication, considering the time invested in the total of the activities related to the face-to-face time and the time of autonomous work, that the professor of the subject guides, as well as the reading times, information search, connection to the Virtual Classroom, elaboration of works.

Learning activities


The activities of the subject follow the system of continuous evaluation, that is to say, that throughout the term the professor raises several activities, that the students must solve and deliver. The work of each one of the activities allows to value to the student, the follow-up that does to the asignatura and the elements of improvement, from the comments and notes that the professor will do of the activities.

The proposed activities can be individual or in work groups. The teacher gives the instructions so that the students can elaborate and deliver them. All the activities proposed are designed so that students have a practical perspective on the topics that are developed throughout the ten weeks of the term.

Evaluation system


Qualification system (Royal Decree 1125/2003, of 5 September) that establishes the European system of credits and the system of qualifications to the university degrees of official character and validity in all the state territory:

0 - 4,9: Suspended

5,0 - 6,9: Approved

7,0 - 8,9: Notable

9,0 - 10: Excellent

The final grade of the student is the result of a continuous assessment through different assessment activities. The pass of the subject is obtained with a grade equal to or higher than 5 points (out of 10) according to the following weighting table:

Evaluation activity Weighting Assessed skills
Individual and / or group work 15% G9, E8, G6, B3, T4, E9 
Group practices 35% G9, T7, E8, E11, B2, G6, B3, G1, T2, T4, E9, E7
Examen 50% G9, E8, B2, G6, B3, T4, E9

 

Criteria for averaging the grades of the evaluation activities:

Evaluation activity criteria

Individual and / or group work

Group practices

5/10
Examen 5/10

 

 

Recovery

During the same course, there is the possibility of recovering skills not achieved during the course (Exam).

In accordance with current regulations, in the evaluation activity of the exam, it will only be possible to opt for the recovery of the subject if it has been suspended. In case of Not Presented, you will not be eligible for recovery.

The assessment activity in the recovery period is a face-to-face exam (written test). This exam weighs 50% of the assessment and must be passed with a 5/10 to be able to assess the entire subject. The grade obtained during the continuous assessment will be maintained.

Evaluation activity in recovery period Weighting Assessed skills
Individual and / or group work 15% (Not recoverable) G9, E8, G6, B3, T4, E9 
Group practices 35% (Not recoverable) G9, T7, E8, E11, B2, G6, B3, G1, T2, T4, E9, E7
Examen 50% G9, E8, B2, G6, B3, T4, E9
