0093 Physical Education:
Movement Forms - Video Evaluation

The new study guide includes a sample question for the Video Evaluation test!  More info...

This test is designed to assess how well you identify critical elements of a motor skills, movement forms,  and exercises. You are also expected to describe appropriate ways to communicate with K-12 students  about ways of changing and/or improving their performance. The test also assesses the ability of the prospective teacher of physical education to identify unsafe aspects of movement and exercise performance.

The test contains two questions. Each question will deal with at least one of the concepts relating to motor skill performance and fitness, including fundamental movements, movement forms, and fitness as described in the Physical Education: Content Knowledge Test 0091.

Each question is based on 1-2 minute videotapes of school-age children demonstrating movements in the various categories. The taped stimulus for each question will show two to six demonstrators performing the skills covered by that question.

For example, the tape might show a child practicing a skill such as throwing a ball. The examinee would be asked to describe significant characteristics of the child's performance and then to suggest appropriate ways in which to improve that performance.

Examinees will see the tapes for both questions at the beginning of the first hour of the test and will see each tape four additional times during the hour. There are no sample questions for the Physical Education: Movement Forms -Video Evaluation.
