For the duration of this 8-week term, you will complete a Kinesiology concept map. This project will begin with the broad category of Kinesiology as the central portion of your map. Over the course of the term, you will continue to build onto your concept map as you learn more about the various aspects of the field of Kinesiology. With each addition to your concept map, you will provide a new assessment/reflection regarding the field of Kinesiology. Each file associated with this project will be labeled “Kinesiology Concept Map – xyz” (‘xyz’ will be replaced with the appropriate name of the worksheet to be completed for a given week) on the Moodle course website. Put your name and date in the designated slots below these instructions.

Concept Map

A concept map will help you to organize, relate, and understand the various aspects and topics of Kinesiology that you will be introduced to during this 8-week course. Please make sure to look in the supporting materials links for examples of concept maps before you begin this assignment. Provided in the PowerPoint file named Concept Map Template is a starting point for your own map. In future weeks, you will need to insert new shapes/text boxes for new concepts as is necessary.

You may create your concept map via the PowerPoint template or in the document. Regardless of what you choose, you will need to paste your final concept map in the space below:

Conceptual Relationships

The purpose of conceptual relationships is to help you integrate, associate, and connect knowledge of various aspects of Kinesiology, as well as realize how each field in Kinesiology supports one another. Therefore, please respond to the following questions below:

1. If you had a client come in that is obese and diabetic, what type of therapeutic exercise would you recommend (broad category)? Why?

2. How might therapeutic exercise promote a healthy lifestyle?

3. How might you convince someone that physical education is important and does not detract from learning in other subjects? What would you say?

4. If you were a physical education teacher, what type of curriculum would you implement? Why?

5. If you were to enter a career in sport coaching what do you think would be the single most important personal characteristic that you must possess? Why? What about if you entered a career in sport instruction?

6. What are some skills that you possess that would make you an effective leader in the field of sport management? Why would these skills make you a leader in the field?

Week 8 Kinesiology Concept Map Reflection

As we continue through the term, you will be required to fill out periodic reflections to record your thoughts and feelings about Kinesiology as you learn new information. Today, I want you to focus on the first day of changing your behavior. There is a specific prompt for you to get started, but after you answer the initial questions, you are free to continue on with more open-ended journaling, if you wish.

Journal Prompt: Congratulations, you’ve completed your concept map project! Look back over your journal entries; what have you learned along the way? Was this project helpful to you? Feel free to free journal after answering these questions if you wish.
