Decision-making index (DMI) - DMI  = AD / ID
 

Skill execution index (SEI) -  SEI  = ESE / ISE
 

Support index (AI) -  SI = ASM / ISM
 

Game performance (GP) - GP = [DMI + SEI + SI]/3
 
 

Teaching Instruction
Assessment
This grade 8 basketball unit is meant to provide the students with a skill base and tactical knowledge which was previously partly or completely unknown to them.  Therefore, the majority of weight for marking will not revolve around skill execution.
Affective (Participation) (60%)
•    The teacher will provide a participation mark for each student on each day of the unit.
•    Attendance
•    Taking part and using effort in all activities
Social and Psychomotor (Cooperation and Effort in Skill Execution Mark) (30%)
•    This mark will be compiled by the teacher observing the class during the drills and two-on-two games.  The teacher will grade the students on fundamental skills in shooting, dribbling, passing, and defense and grade on how well the student can apply these skills.  Students who are trying to utilize the ideas presented in class will be the most successful in this section of marking.
Cognitive Evaluation (10%)
•    At the end of the unit, the students will be given a short written unit test on fundamental skills and ideas in basketball.
