There is a continuous assessment of course work including writing short essays about selected topics, giving an oral presentation, taking part in the discussions, and writing a final seminar work.
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Aims:
To provide students with advanced knowledge, skills and the ability to assess fitness parameters and performance using a variety of exercise tests in subjects of different age groups; with different health status and with different exercise capabilities.
To develop knowledge and understanding of the exercise capabilities of humans who are tested.
T o get insight of strengths and weakness of participants in the context of sport or activity in which they participate.
