Jason Borland, the Head of PE at Papakura High School is experiencing positive engagement and improved achievement outcomes through the use of the online app Vidalyze.
In this presentation, Jason shows us how students use Vidalyze to explain their understanding of biomechanics.
A key benefit of using Vidalyze with students is the functionality they have to edit their own videos. This allows them to show comparisons with their technical skills to highlight their angles and flexibility, a necessary requirement for many of the achivement standards like the ones listed on the right.
Jason finds the online app particularly useful for gatherings student evidence with the following achievement standards:
AS90967 1.6 Demonstrate strategies to improve the performance of a physical activity and describe the outcomes
AS90963 1.2 - Demonstrate understanding of the function of the body as it relates to the performance of physical activity
AS91328 2.2 Demonstrate understanding of how and why biophysical principles relate to the learning of physical skills
AS91499 3.2 Analyse a physical skill performed by self or others
