Part I : Specific motor and sport skills

Entering in the second year, students are integrated in a programme built on a three year period. Two kinds of activities are proposed: basic activities (3 individual sports, 3 team sports, 3 expression sports) and "multisports" activities (in-outdoor activities, certification programmes organised in non academic sport contexts, organisation of sport events).

Part II : Determinants of sport performance

Before each session, students receive general information on the topic of the lesson that includes theoretical background and practical guidelines.
1. Set fitness: two courses based on the work of endurance for beginners and the importance of warming up and stretching. 2. Using the heart rate monitor 3. Cooper + test interpretation 4. Test Track Leger + interpretation 5. Test Leger shuttle + interpreting 6. Work circuit endurance 7. Work circuit muscle resistance 8. Working with medicine balls 9. Evaluation of anaerobic power alactic 10. Evaluation of the lactic anaerobic capacity 11. Evaluation of the lactic anaerobic power 12. Evaluation of mobility 13. Weight training: general principles (2 sessions) 14. Muscle: determination of 1RM 15. Muscle: evaluation inertial torque 16. Muscle: assessment of strength and endurance of isometric force 17. Weight training: building a workout 18. Exercises: Identification of the factors of performance

Learning outcomes of the course :  
Part I : Specific motor and sport skills

- To improve the technical and tactical bases (according to the sport) and to ensure the multiplication of the motor and sports experiences.
- To ensure the maintenance of a level of physical fitness essential for any physical education/sport professional.
- To develop animation and organization competences.
- To illustrate the didactic principles specific to each sport.
- To improve students' competences in task analysis.
- To educate with a sport ethics (fair-play...).
- To educate with a professional ethics (correction, punctuality, effort...).

Part II : Determinants of sport performance

The current practice to determine the performance meets three main objectives:
1. A specific presentation of the main methods used in the field to evaluate the various performance factors. 2. Presenting the tools the coach has to improve or monitor the effectiveness of training. 3. Introduce the field of basic principles regarding the working methods used in training. Strength training, stretching and work through circuit will be given special attention.

Part I : Specific motor and sport skills

Entering in the second year, students are integrated in a programme built on a three year period. Two kinds of activities are proposed: basic activities and "multisports" activities.

Basic activities:

They are divided in three groups of three sports: sex specific or expression sports (gymnastic, aerobic/fitness, dance or indoor-soccer), individual sports (athletics, swimming, badminton) et team sports (basketball, handball, volleyball).

Each semester, students attend to a unit of each sport's group for a total of six different sports each year. Weekly, a unit corresponds to one 75 and one 90 minutes sessions during the whole semester. The annual planning respects a rolling principle allowing each student to participate to two units of each sport during his/her graduation programme.

Multisports activities:

Three times a year, basic activities are replaced during a week by another programme aiming to increase the diversity of the sport preparation and enlarge the students' experience. During the first year of a cycle of three, these activities are focused on « in and out-door activities » (climbing, orienteering, squash, mountain bike, field hockey, tennis, etc). The second year, students are involved in extramural sports preparations (coach's certification, climbing's accreditation, etc). The third year is devoted to the organization by the students of sport events (a quarter triathlon, a inter group challenge and a adventure raid).

Activities:

The development of sport skills represents one of the main objectives of the practical courses, basic as well as multisports. Nevertheless, another objective is to prepare students to the analysis of sport skills (beginning and expert levels) and to build teaching and coaching strategies. These competences are prerequisites to the courses belonging to the pedagogical preparation of the graduates. Thus, a work with video is programmed each year.

Some specialisation seminars are organised during the year. Students are invited to participate to conferences and/or clinics proposed by visiting professors or specialists.

Due to individual fitness level, conditioning sessions are organized at the beginning of the academic year. Tests are planned to follow the level of the students.

Ski:

Students have to attend to ski camp. This activity is compulsory once in BSM 2 or BSM 3 and a second time in MSM 1.

Aquatic safety:

One unit focusing on the security on swimming pool is also planned every two years.

Information:

Practical guidelines and schedules are provided to the students at the beginning of the academic year. More detailed information is also available on the vademecum.

Recommended or required readings :  
Part I : Specific motor and sport skills

In each unit lessons'plans, documents prepared by students, and useful references are gathered in a port folio that is available at the library of the staff.

Part II : Determinants of sport performance

Students must acquire earlier this year the "book of practical work" that provides a description of each session. This book allows students to prepare each lesson, take notes, and make preparations. This book of practical work is also a good summary of what has been achieved over the years and is a database that could be useful in their future professional life.

Assessment methods and criteria :  
Part I : Specific motor and sport skills

Evaluation of the practical sports courses takes into account the level and involvement of the student in all activities organised during the whole academic year. Bonus and penalities are applied according several objective criteria. Students are informed about the latter during the first session.

It is noteworthy that active participation to practical sport courses is required. One student who would have a low attending rate could be not allowed to attend to the practical exams. For more information, see the vademecum.

Part II : Determinants of sport performance

The current practice to determine the performance is evaluated on several criteria: * The performance displayed throughout the year * The percentage of attendance * Motivation expressed during * Behaviour

Organizational remarks :  
Part I : Specific motor and sport skills

A sport uniform is requested. It is sold during the first week of the academic year. Each student must have permanently a whistle and always being ready to write notes.
