Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Aims:
- Develop the competence to effectively plan, carry out, and critically evaluate training units in alignment with training science principles
- Skillfully design and coordinate load parameters within the contexts of training application and training control.
- Demonstrate proficiency in facilitating and incorporating both self-reflection and external feedback into the training process, including thorough documentation of training activities.
Content:
- Tests and assessments
- Monitoring
- Practical use of scientific evidence
- Application of training science concepts
Methods:
- The first sessions of the semester are structured as interactive lectures accompanied by group discussions, serving as the foundational knowledge for subsequent activities.
- Students are tasked with practical applications of course material, applying it to either a fictitious or real-world scenario. This hands-on approach will allow them to develop expertise in test planning, execution, and evaluation, as well as the critical aspects of training management, control, data analysis, and presentation.

Assessment and permitted materials

Partial performances consist of:
- Participation in class
- Treatment of two relevant articles in the Journal Club
- Review and reflection of learned material in the Teachback Workshop
- Presentations and peer review with constructive feedback for fellow students
- Submission of the written training process by the end of the semester.

AI (LLMs) is only allowed for the revision and editing of self-written texts.

You are explicitly advised that if you are found to have cheated (ex: Copying, plagiarism, use of unauthorized aids, forgery, ghostwriting, etc.), the entire PI-LV will be considered cheated and will count as a citation. (Entry in U:SPACE: X = not assessed).

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

- For a positive assessment, all partial performances (see above) must be completed within the communicated deadlines!
- The minimum requirement is 80% attendance and completion of all subsections.
- Grading
[ 1 ] 91 - 100 points
[ 2 ] 81 - 90 points
[ 3 ] 71 - 80 points
[ 4 ] 60 - 70 points
[ 5 ] < 60 points
