Note: In this unit, there are five potential discussion themes available for your consideration. You should select three different discussion themes and submit one initial post that begins a discussion thread and two responses to your group members’ posts in the appropriate discussions area. If you are the first person to submit a post, do not forget to indicate the title of the theme (e.g. Conditioning Techniques Discussion). Moreover, do not worry to be the initiator of a discussion; other students who are interested in the theme(s) will join you soon to keep the discussions running.Conditioning Techniques Discussion: What ways could you use conditioning techniques to change an athlete’s negative behaviours such as: being late for practice; disrespectful of the training staff and game officials, and inappropriate language in the dressing room and on the playing field. What examples of negative reinforcement and aversive control have you experienced as an athlete or member of a team/group, and did they work?Athletes as Learning Partners Discussion: How do you get athletes “to be full partners in the learning process”? What are the benefits / limitations of this partnership? At what age or skill level should athletes be seen as “full partners?Motor Skills Discussion: Many professional athletes seem to move and flow with the grace of a dancer and execute their skills seemingly without effort. Select a player you think falls into this category and discuss the major motor skills and processes that produce such skills.Effects of Anxiety Discussion: Which of the following athletes would you be most concerned in terms of holding up under the effects of anxiety in an upcoming competition? Explain your choice.Athlete A is an outgoing individual who is relatively unskilled;Athlete B is an introverted person but is one of your most skilled players;Athlete C tends to be highly anxious and has recently made some changes in his/her tennis serving technique;Athlete D is low in anxiety and is also relatively unskilled;Athlete E is extroverted and is only moderately skilled.Arousal Performance Discussion: The arousal-performance relationship has been explained by drive theory and the inverted-U hypothesis. Have you ever experienced a catastrophic collapse? Discuss these theories and their application to sport performance in general and to your own personal experiencesDISCUSSION POSTSAcross the course units (01-05 and 07-10), there are discussion activities that require your active, weekly participation in group discussions. Students will be placed in small groups to promote collaborative learning. Select Groups from the Tools dropdown menu to view your group.The purpose of the discussion is to build on the knowledge gained from the required reading and CourseLink unit modules to critically reflect on themes related to each unit in the course.With the exception of Unit 06, each unit includes five potential discussion themes for consideration. Students are required to select three different discussion themes (out of the five potential choices) and post one 150-250 word paragraph for each unit theme selected. A total of three posts should be submitted for each unit and must be related to different unit themes. To encourage idea sharing and interaction, students are expected to submit one initial post that begins a discussion thread by Wednesday and also complete two responses to group members’ posts by end of the week (Sunday).Only one initial post and two responses (each related to a different unit theme) will be graded.The due dates for unit discussion posts are listed in the Schedule (see above). All three posts for the unit must be submitted to the group discussion by the due date. Late discussion posts will not be graded.Important Note: Review the Late Policy under Course Specific Standard Statements in this Outline.Discussion posts will be evaluated throughout the term. Unit posts will be graded on the basis of knowledge/critical thinking, clarity of communication, quality/conciseness of writing, accuracy/relevance of academic content, and timeliness/frequency of postsReadingsRequired Digital Textbook Reading: Chapter 5 – Anxiety in Sport and ExerciseRequired eBook Reading: Chapters 27, 32, 34, and 35.online content
