The embedded thread outlined some assessment possibilities that may work well IF YOU HAVE TIME & resources...

But it also reflects a logo-centric (word/number dominated)approach, & so is limited.

This thread will attempt to address these limitations.

Here we go... 1st, what if you don’t have much time? Or if you have 100 students at a time?

1 thing you could do is set up the same activities (throw for distance, accuracy, fun, etc) & ask the S’s to engage & notice. Could have them partner up & compare or combine results verbally.

One of my major projects, which I think has profound import for the field of #Physed, is to identify a CATEGORY, NAME, or LABEL for the WHAT & WHY of PE that is comprehensive enough to include a wide variety of modes of PE that is true to its name.

The field needs this!

Thread> 1st let me clarify what I mean by “true to its name.” If we were to sit down & play legos all day in PE, would it be “Physical” “Education?”

No. It would be a possible mode, but it wouldn’t be sufficiently “physical” or “educational” enough.

OK. Let’s get to the labels…
