what is the idealist / monist view of PL

A

grounded in philosophy
believes that PL is an “embodied experience” that everyone has

Q

what is the pragmatic / practical approach

PL can be measured (challenging but can be done)

- uses model for PL

Q

what is confidence / motivation

A

feeling confident about how they move
- little kids = high confidence, poor mvmt
- as they age - confidence and mvmt skills get closer together
- girls - confidence decreases past mvmt skill

Q

why do different countries have different assessments of PL

A

due to different weather / environment, definitions of PL, focuses on different aspects of PL (different sports important in different cultures)
- most NA assessments don’t use equipment for object manip

17
Q

what is the canadian assessment of physical literacy (CAPL)

A

for kids 8-12
battery of tests - not a single scale or tool
get one total score from combined tests

18
Q

what are the tests per domain in CAPL

A
  1. affective (mainly confidence)
    - 18% of total
  2. behavioural (PA behaviour - measured with pedometer and self reported PA)
    - 32% of total
  3. cognitive (knowledge about phys ed curriculum)
    - 18% of total
  4. physical - CAMSA (motor skill testing obstacle course) + fitness (beep test + plank hold)
    - 32% of total
19
Q

what are the strengths of CAPL

A
  • covers lots of domains
  • connects motor skills together in the obstacle course (not performed in isolation)
20
Q

what are the limitations of CAPL

A
  • not inclusive - not standardised for kids with disabilities
  • inaccurate self reporting PA
  • made for kids 8-12 only
  • want the highest correlation to be with the obstacle course score and total score (instead found that the plank hold was most related to the childs score)
  • too much focus on fitness
21
Q

what is the passport for life (PFL)

A
  • completed through the school year
  • grade 3-12
22
Q

what are the 4 domains evaluated in PFL

A

active participation (self report)
- how active they are, and what types of sports they participate in

living skills (self report)
- similar to affective domain (feelings, thinking, interacting)
- understanding how to move and make decisions around PA

fitness skills (assessed by teacher)
- aerobic endurance (mostly), balance, core strength

movement skills (assessed by teacher)
- locomotor (running), upper limb movement (throw/catch), lower limb movement (kick and dribble a ball), balance (already assessed in fitness)

23
Q

what are the strengths of PFL

A
  • can apply to the whole class in one day of gym
  • kids have a bit of autonomy with the self reporting and can show them change throughout the school year (ownership over their PA)
  • longer tracking period - grade 3-12
24
Q

what are the limitations of PFL

A
  • not designed for kids with neurodevelopmental conditions
  • need digital literacy (online reporting)
  • not good at self reporting + recall
  • fitness is an outcome of PL not an assessment tool
25
Q

what is the physical literacy assessment for youth (PLAYtool)

A
  • age 7+ (no top age)
  • 18 tasks (running, locomotor, upper and lower body object control, balance, stability, and body control)
  • scored from 0-100 per skill
  • also look at confidence, competence, and knowledge
26
Q

how does PLAYtool assess confidence, competence, and knowledge

A

assessed through their ability to show skills without demonstration
- want to limit the amount that the kids just mimic the demonstrator

27
Q

what are the catagories of mvmt competence in PLAYtool

A

developing (0-50) = individual is still learning that skill
- divided into initial (0-25) and emerging (25-50)

acquired (50-100) = have the skill but not refined
- divided into competent (50-75) and proficient (75-100)
(100 = best in the world at that skill)

28
Q

what are the strengths of the PLAYtool

A
  • two versions of PLAYtool that are adapted - cognitive and physical
  • not age banded (7 and up)
  • accurate assessment of physical literacy
29
Q

what are the limitations of PLAYtool

A

comprehension - need to focus as the assessor, hard to gauge a confident child
very subjective - based on the best in the world, confidence, and comprehension
