Physical Education Assessment through ICT

Brad Milne is a teacher from Whangaparaoa College which is a brand new year 7 to 13 school. He spoke about three ways in which the school is using ICT in assessment.

1. ePortfolio in year 9 and 10 Health and PE.
2. An Anatomy quiz using Excel.
3. Using Silicon coach to analyse movement

I was particularly impressed with the discussion about ePortfolios which the school plans to introduce next year. The ePortfolio is seen to have the potential to develop self assessment and self reflection skills. Fitness test results and graphs are planned to be included and students can discussion reasons for change in their performance. Photos and videos of performance can be included again providing opportunities for self reflection.
