Today we'll explore Criterion A, which focuses on 'Knowing and Understanding'. Students, can anyone tell me the importance of including academic writing in our assessments?
Is it about showing that we understand the concepts we learn?
Exactly! A well-structured written report of 1,200-1,500 words helps articulate that understanding. We’ll use the PEE structure: Point, Evidence, Explanation. Can anyone repeat what PEE stands for?
Point, Evidence, Explanation!
Well done! Remember, also to create infographics to illustrate energy systems. This engages visual learning. Why do you think infographics are useful?
They make complex information easier to understand!
Precisely! To conclude, remember that synthesizing information through different formats enriches your understanding. Anyone have questions about our next steps?

Now let’s move on to Criterion B, which is all about planning. What is a key component of a training plan, would anyone venture a guess?
Setting SMART goals, right?
Correct! SMART goals—Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound—are crucial. Can someone explain how they help in planning?
They keep our objectives clear and achievable, helping us track our progress!
Exactly! Additionally, risk assessments are vital. Why do we need them?
To ensure safety during our training?
Correct! Comprehensive planning includes risk management. Remember the template: Title page, weekly breakdown, nutrition section. Any challenges?

Demonstrating three selected skills and recording them, right?
Exactly! Self-evaluating through video recordings is crucial for identifying areas of improvement. Why is self-evaluation important?
It helps us learn from our mistakes and improve our technique!
Great point! Also, let’s remember to use our performance checklist effectively during practice. Who can summarize the key components of our task?
Checklists, video timestamps, and notes about our performance!
Fantastic summary! Keep practicing those skills, and remember reflection is key.

To understand what we've learned and how to better ourselves!
Exactly! Writing a reflective essay allows for deeper insights. Who can name one model that helps in structuring reflections?
The GROW model!
Great! Use this model to capture your progress and set future goals. And don't forget about peer and teacher feedback. How does feedback help us?
It can point out things we might have missed!
Exactly! Feedback provides a broader perspective. Let’s take what we've discussed today to improve our future performances.
Overview
Short Summary
This section outlines how to design effective summative assessment tasks for Physical & Health Education using IB criteria.
Medium Summary
The section details specific tasks aligned with IB criteria A to D for assessment in Physical & Health Education. It describes task designs including written reports, practical performances, reflective essays, and portfolio compilations, providing guidelines and templates to help students demonstrate their understanding and skills.
Detailed Summary
Task Design (Section 1.3.1)
In this section, we delve into the design of summative assessment tasks in Physical & Health Education, aligned with the International Baccalaureate (IB) criteria A (Knowing and Understanding), B (Planning), C (Applying and Performing), and D (Reflecting and Evaluating). Each criterion requires the development of specific tasks that not only assess knowledge and skills but also provide opportunities for personal growth and reflection.
Key Points Covered:
- Criterion A: Knowing and Understanding requires written reports (1,200–1,500 words) on anatomical and physiological topics, supplemented by visual infographics depicting energy systems and muscle contraction processes. The use of the PEE structure (Point–Evidence–Explanation) is essential for clarity.
- Criterion B: Planning focuses on creating an 8-week training plan targeting aerobic capacity, including SMART goals and risk assessments to ensure safety.
- Criterion C: Applying and Performing involves demonstrating practical skills with recorded performances that are annotated for self-evaluation, emphasizing technique and effort.
- Criterion D: Reflecting and Evaluating encourages students to write reflective essays and compile peer feedback, using structured models like GROW.
Students are tasked with assembling a portfolio that includes fitness journals, skill analyses, and evidence of performance achievement, ensuring a holistic approach to learning and assessment.

Create a free account● Practical performance: Demonstrate three selected skills (e.g., orienteering route execution, parkour vault sequence, team-building facilitation).
Detailed Explanation
This task requires students to showcase their abilities in practical scenarios. They need to choose three skills relevant to Physical & Health Education. For example, one might demonstrate how to navigate an orienteering course, perform a specific parkour move, or lead a team-building exercise.
Examples & Analogies
Think of this like participating in a sports competition where you must show your skills in various areas—like a triathlon where you swim, bike, and run. Here, each skill is a different event, and you want to excel in all to show your overall ability.

Detailed Explanation
In this part of the task, students are required to record their performances and then analyze them. They will write notes during the video playback, highlighting what they did well (strengths) and what needs improvement. This self-analysis helps reinforce learning and skill enhancement.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine you're performing in a play—after the show, you would watch the recording to see what worked, like your acting, and what didn't, such as forgetting lines. This process is like refining your performance based on feedback from your own observations.
