• LTI:– Small Scale Innovation Award 2010-11

• Dominic Bygate:– ESCAPE Project: Effecting Sustainable Change

in Assessment Practice and Experience

• Helen Barefoot and Mark Russell

• Emma Moloney

Evolution

• ESCAPE Project provided Flip cameras (L6 S&C)

• Students videoed their own exercise techniques

• With an aim to develop a library of video clips that could be used as a learning resource

• Positive student feedback

• Limitations in expertise, equipment and technique

Rationale

• Sports Science and Sports Therapy modules (L4-7)

• Learning complex exercise techniques

• Students cannot master techniques using the images provided in lecture slides or handouts

• Study groups

• Distance learning option required

Aims

• To increase flexible learning opportunities for students (LTI)

• To develop an online library of video clips used to facilitate student learning on sports science and sports therapy modules across levels 4-7

• To use video as an assessment tool

Focus Group

• Undergraduates

• Postgraduates

• Facilitated by AM

• Student centred

• Diverse needs

• High speed video cameras

• Tripods

• SD cards

• Video camera

• Digital video analysis software
