We asked our students to film, so a student who wasn't delivering a session, filmed their
colleague through their coaching session, or their circuit session each different activity
and the students recorded about between 30 and 60 seconds of each activity and this is
the stage, they did this the other day and will be using the iPads with this information
and put it into the iMovies app and make it into a little short video. So if we give you
an example of a student asking the students to do some circuits, there's different activities
going on the student there is monitoring the circuit demonstrating activities while another
student is recording and this has worked so they record one thing and then they move on
to the next activity. Then they record another activity. This teaches our students to build
a bit of class to their presentations, a little bit more polish to their presentations. Where
they've done the actual activity, they've reviewed their activity then they actually
have to go through and talk more about their activity. This is still in the stage of designing
it and so the student has started putting this together, she's put some music over the
top, she's just literally put her videos in, but she hasn't yet edited them down, so we're
still looking at something which is probably seven or six minutes long, yes six minutes
fourteen seconds long, which is a bit too long really, we try and keep these things
down to about five or four minutes really. For this one because she is a level three
student she will be throughout this the music will be there just as a background, but she
needs to be talking through each activity, the key key points; the key coaching points
and delivering it. Other apps which we use, Coaching Eye, now this is the Coaching Eye
which we use extensively for more general sports activities, again we just use the camera
option to film. You film the activities and basically the blue videos here are the original
activities and the red ones is where we've gone through and commented or added our information
about them. This one here was at Lords. Okay so this is a video which we recorded, I can
go back into the video add my comments to the action, I could talk about; in this example
I've talked about what happens, what I could do if I wanted to, I could annotate on top
of it and say 'this is where the ball should have been going perhaps', or 'this is the
free space over here, this is where I need to aiming'. Then I can record all this information
and save it, then show the students afterwards. We use the Tennis Coaching Plus HD app, this
app comes with reference videos already stored, so we have exemplar shots within in so that
we can use as teaching aids. With this what we have done is we have recorded the students
playing tennis, being trained tennis. This is them practicing certain shots from these
shots what we can do is we can overlay the professional shots and then you can do a close
comparison, so this is a student doing a comparison shot then the student can watch the example
and compare how they have done it as well. The Burst Mode is a great option, difficult
to demonstrate without someone moving, but basically what happens on this app is you
have fifty frames; and you can change the number of frames per second, but it takes
fifty pictures in that one or two seconds, so for actions like the golf swing or the
tennis serve, for a penalty kick, for serve and volley ball; anything along those lines
it can work fantastically, you can get fifty good pictures of the action happening in real
play, so if I can just try and demonstrate this; this is my hand. You've got the whole
movement of my hand throughout the motion, as you can imagine that was someone serving
a ball or hitting the ball. Other apps we've used are our anatomy apps, the first one is
Visual Anatomy, which is; breaks down all the different systems, we most of the time
only really use the muscular and the bones system, you can break it down into different
areas if you want to look at, so for example the rib cage. This is a very basic app, which
we connect to the computer and play it through the interactive white board it comes up quite
nicely. You can introduce different parts of the body. The other anatomy app we use
on anatomy is The Human Body, which is a lot more detailed and this breaks down the all
the body systems again, again we only really use the muscular and skeletal systems and
this one gives more detail, so this is what we normally use with our extended diploma
units; focuses on the muscles where the location is, we can zoom in and pick on certain areas,
so that will be the deltoid this gives us more information on the deltoid, we can have
a look and see where the muscles are and interact. We can turn the body around so we can see
the backside of the body and again this is the fundamental stuff, it doesn't show any
information about how it interacts and how you train it and all those kind of actions,
but as a starting point to learn about the body it's a good indication, where most students
can take the iPads and go off and learn it.
