Bowling

Quotes: for use in the video. Feel free to add more fellas.

Ð'* Go at your own pace, that's what it's there for!

Ð'* You call that an approach

Ð'* Don't slack Kevin, I'm watching you.

Ð'* Nice job Susie

Ð'* There's a good energy in the gym!!!

Ð'* What are our goals? To tell ya we don't have any, we found that if you don't set any goals, you'll never be disappointedÐ'...Ð'....and I gotta tell ya, it feels phenomenal.

The following are key points the observational groups will be tracking in our presentation. Below is a ruff outline of how we intend to teach the bowling approach while incorporating these variables to the satisfactory level of both the observers and the audience.

Identified goals for lesson plan:

Ð'* Provide the three observational groups with a detailed layout of what we intend to achieve during our lesson. This should be provided to the groups and Ann one week prior to our presentation date.

Explanations

Different Views

Ð'* We'll show different camera angles (pref. 2 different cameras on the go). And we'll do a "freeze frame" where we'll pause during a key part of the approach and have the camera slowly circle us to show all angles.

Age appropriateness

Ð'* We'll be teaching to a University level audience of mostly trained individuals with some athletic experience.

Explanations (verbal cues)

Ð'* Try and have a "narrator" explaining the movement and key points while the movement is being performed on video, this allows the audience to listen while the video component allows them to focus on key variables that are being explained.

Ð'* Keep strictly verbal explanations to a minimum and only to stress key points of a movement already performed (games approach). Try and break up verbal explanations to keep audience attention.

Repetitiveness

Ð'* Be repetitive of key points; keep main focus points around 5 and no more then 7. People can't remember too many points, nor do they want to. Repetition leads to recognition.

Ð'* Make the activity motivating by making it fun and interactive, allow for early successes in the drills to allow students to fell a level of competence.

Realism

Ð'* We'll try and simulate the bowling lane and the approach by marking off lanes with tape. "don't ya hate it when your trying to bowl, and the person besides you goes just when your gonna go, and you get all screwd up? I hate that."

Ð'* "go at your own pace, that's what it's there for."

Ð'* Be creative, doesn't have to be overly serious, but don't get off topic with humor.

Use of Verbal Cues

Instructor's Observational skills

Ð'* Make sure we do enough research and understand the biomechanics of the key points for both male and female's if we discover any possible differences upon further research. Eg. Females have Q-angle, might affect knee placement etc..

Interpret body language

Ð'* Understand observable movement, and be prepared to provide feedback in an appropriate manor. Stay positive, and use the positive sandwich.

Ð'* Look for common errors and address them to the group, not just individuals.

Ð'* Know that there will be a large diversity in skill level and the feedback should reflect that.

Environment

Ð'* Using gym 491 (hopefully) will allow students to all view the instruct.

Ð'* Play the game/ practice the approach before getting into key points, give everyone a feel for it.

Ð'* Make sure our environment is safe, give everyone lots of space.

Sequence of learning

Ð'* Logical order, don't start with the follow through, start with stance, feet placement etc.

Ð'* Be sure that our sequence of expiations is well organized
