Pre & Post Assessment
Purpose of Activity:
I would like students to use this form of project based assessment to help them develop specific
motor skills, use team communication for improvement, improve their self-concept &
expression, critical thinking and decision making, as well using technology to create an authentic
project based assessment of their skill.
Standards Addressed:
Content Standard:​ Motor Skills
Standard 1:​ The student demonstrates competency in motor skills and movement patterns
needed to perform a variety of physical activities.
Benchmark 1:​ ​The student will demonstrate and apply mature motor skills, manipulation of
objects and rhythmic concepts during modified, individual, or team activities.
Content Standard:​ Learning Concepts
Standard 2:​ The student demonstrates understanding of movement concepts, principles,
strategies, and tactics as they apply to the learning and performance of physical activities.
Benchmark 1:​ ​The student will demonstrate and refine movement concepts, principles,
strategies, and tactics that apply to the performance of physical activities.
Suggested Grade Level:
9-12 but I would likely want to use this form of project based assessment with upper class
students.

2. Materials Needed:
Some form of recording device (phone, iPad, iPod, etc), equipment for chosen skill by students,
students will have to write summaries, and at the end of the semester a classroom projector for
students to present their videos.
Description of both Pre & Post Assessment:
To start the semester, students will choose a specific skill, event, or activity that they would like
to develop or improve on by the end of the semester. After choosing the skill, event, or activity
as a class or individually if needed we will video record each student's chosen skill as a baseline
for the beginning of the semester. Every Friday during open gym class, students will have the
entire class period, (if they choose), to work on development of their skill.
At the end of each four weeks students will complete a short summary over their progress
towards the skill or lack of progress if there is some. The summaries will be completed
throughout the entire semester. The summary can be anywhere from half of a page up to two
pages if needed but you as the teacher can change that around.
When the class hits the halfway point through the semester students will complete a self
evaluation rubric over progress towards their skill. After completing the halfway rubric we
break into groups to discuss with fellow classmates about our progress and share with each other
some advice or ideas we each may have to help each other out. This is important for the students
because it lets them see where other students are with their progress and allows them to
communicate with each other to help improve as a team/group.
Once the end of the semester comes students will video record their skill again for
comparison with the first video at the beginning of semester. It is a good idea to have the
students present both videos to the classroom to discuss what they did to improve their skill and
visually show what they have done.
Scoring Rubric:
I used an 80 point scoring system rubric that was covered over the following determining factors.
- First recording of selected skill is worth ​10 points

3. - Every four week summaries (3) are worth ​5 points each and an additional 5 points for
completing all three (​20 points total)
- Completion of the self evaluation rubric is worth ​20 points
- Last recording of selected skill is worth ​20 points
- Class presentation over skill is worth ​10 points
I also used a 16 point scoring system rubric that the students did for themselves. It was a
self-evaluation that covered four key components: Effort, Time, Use of Outside Resources, and
Effective Summaries. Students use a scale of beginning-1pt to exemplary-4pts.
