Assessment
This grade 11/12 unit is for the most part purely a recreational unit allowing the students to be able to play golf for life, therefore the assessment for this unit will be based mainly on participation and cooperation.
Affective (Participation) (60%)
The teacher will provide a participation mark for each student on each day of the unit.
Attendance
Taking part in all activities
Social and Psychomotor (Cooperation and Effort in Skill Execution Mark) (30%)
Because Golfing is a sport that is usually done in partners and groups, most of the tasks done in this unit involve partners and groups. The teacher will also give a mark to each student based on the observed cooperation among the students. Each day the students will be in a partnership and will use the Reciprocal task sheets to analyze each others skill execution. At the end of each day they will hand in this sheet with an observation mark out of 10 (6 marks for cooperation, 4 marks for effort in skill execution). The teacher will combine these marks with their own observation of each student to come up with a mark for that day.
Cognitive Evaluation (10%)
At the end of the unit, the students will be given a short written unit test on rules, etiquette and mechanics of golf.
