How do you rate (percent wise) the performance of skills? Is the rating based on the criterion with minimum standard or based on the way the student performs the skills based on skill cues? Do you give a greater score to students for competency on the skill performance such as time and distance or based on skill cues?
How do we know that students have learned a physical education skill? We can assess students using formative and summative assessments but how do we know that students will actually be able to use their skills in real-life, authentic situations? In short, how do we know that our students are competent in the target technique?
Dear Hashem,
Physical assessment skills are designed mainly for nurses and pharmacists. For pharmacists, they are essential to determine if patients are experiencing beneficial or harmful medication effects. The use of physical assessment skills within nursing practice is part of an on-going nursing role development process. There are many centers that offer continuing nursing education to enhance the nurse's knowledge and skills in physical assessment.
By using carefully designed performance-based assessment and valid rubrics.
Dear Hashem: First we have to be sure that students did learn the required physical education skills, and thereafter have the moral to be able to use their skills when needed in the real-life and authentic situations.
Dear Professor Hashim, Would you elaborate more on physical activity assessment in population-based studies.
Dear Dr Mostafa
Very interesting request. How about conducting research in this area?
Dear Professor Hashim, I agree with you about the need for such research in the Middle Eastern countries. I hope that your thoughts and vision for the theme of such research will be the first step towards establishing such novel research. In fact, the theme of this research might be considered as a tool for primary prevention of non-communicable diseases.
