学习体育≠孤立地做体育训练

弗朗西斯·培根有一句名言：知识就是力量。这句话放在21世纪的体育科学中，更是一点也没有错。完善的体育学习离不开理论知识的支持。有理论加持的实践才能让我们获得更强大的身体素质、精神和情感力量，从而在体育项目中取得更好的运动表现和运动体验，这也正是英国中学课程IGCSE体育课程的核心：理论知识与体育训练两手都要抓、两手都要硬。

您能简单介绍一下IGCSE体育课程吗？

剑桥IGCSE体育教材（学生用书）

在IGCSE体育课上，学生不仅要进行体育实践，还要学习体育理论知识。换言之，学生要一边开展多项体育活动，一边学习所选体育项目的有效技能。这门课程非常适合运动校队成员或身为校外运动俱乐部成员的学生选修学习，以精进运动技能，深入钻研体能、社会和心理状态在运动中的体现和与运动的联系。哪些原则、实践和训练有助于提升运动技能？怎样才能保持更好的身心健康状况？这些都是IGCSE体育课上学生将深入研讨的内容。

IGCSE体育理论知识部分有多重要？

IGCSE体育课程中，体育理论是非常重要的一部分。惠灵顿杭州校区的IGCSE体育课程中，学生将学习体育运动背后的理论知识。这部分内容为教室授课。一半理论、一半实践的课程设置让IGCSE体育课程充满了乐趣和挑战，令人欲罢不能。

学生每周有三节体育课，其中，两节是教室内授课的理论课，一节是运动实践课。学生学习主题有：

- 解剖学和生理学

- 健康、健身和训练

- 技巧习得和心理学

- 社交、文化和道德影响

IGCSE体育正式考试具体考核的是什么 ？

学生将于十一年级末参加体育理论考试。理论考试为书面考试，含简答题、论述题和单选题，考试时长为1小时25分钟，占总成绩的50%。这部分考察的是学生对所学内容的理解程度，考察内容即为上文中提到的解剖学和生理学，健康、健身和训练，技巧习得和心理学，社交、文化和道德影响。

运动实践考试占体育考评的50%。学生要从多类体育运动（游戏活动、体操活动、舞蹈活动、体育活动、户外和冒险活动、游泳和格斗活动）中挑选至少两类中的四项体育运动，并展现相应的运动技能。因此，选修体育课的学生一定要积极参与课上的所有体育类活动中，并积极投入到校园活动（SA）中的体育类课程中，这样才能持续提升运动技能。学校还将积极支持在校外参加高尔夫、滑雪、马术、舞蹈等运动的学生。考试时，学生要提交能展现本人符合考试标准的视频证据。

我们如何评估学生表现的？

惠灵顿杭州校区体育教研组以坚定的信念积极支持学生的IGCSE体育学习和运动发展，例如鼓励学生树立远大的理想、弥补短板、强化学习、保障身心健康，等等。为让学生在IGCSE考试中取得优异的表现，我们的体育老师们整合多年体育领域的实践和教学经验，倾情传授自己的专业知识。课程开展的过程中，我们通过单元小测和模拟测试展开过程性评估，从而找到并支持学生发挥自身优势、精益求精，让学生为参加严谨的IGCSE考试做足准备。

IGCSE体育课程的评估目标是：

- 认识和理解支撑体育活动开展和运动能力发展的理论原则。

- 将对相关理论原则的知识和理解（如对运动能力的分析和评估）应用到多种体育活动和运动中。

- 有能力选择并实施相关技能，有效地施展到选定的四项体育运动中。

我们鼓励学生把握自己的学习进展，找到有待改善的方面，主动完成额外的复习题和试卷，熟练掌握所学主题、问题，学习迎接压力、积极应试的技巧。

Physical education is about more than just physical practice

It also requires learning theoretical knowledge. Francis Bacon famously said, “Knowledge is power,” which remains true in Physical Education in the 21st century. Practice supported by theory allows us to be stronger physically, mentally and emotionally, and perform better in our chosen sports. It is the core of the IGCSE PE course in Britain, i.e., our course includes theory learning and physical training.

Many must have been surprised to learn for the first time that they needed to learn theoretical knowledge while taking the PE course. They may wonder, “Isn’t sports simply about getting fitter, faster, and stronger”? Randy Huntington, an American coach for Su Bingtian (the first ever Asian-born sprinter to break the 10-second barrier in the 100 metres event), helped Su to be a faster sprinter by adopting scientific tests and data analysis. It can be seen that besides one’s talent and perseverance, there is the support of scientific theory behind each step of becoming fitter, faster, and stronger. The IGCSE PE course at Wellington College Hangzhou is the perfect combination of sports theory and practice that endows our pupils confidence in their sports activities.

Mr. Christy O’Donnell, Head of PE, will introduce in detail the IGCSE PE course in the following article and answer some of the frequently asked questions from parents.

Christy O"Donnell 

Head of PE

Please give a brief introduction to the IGCSE PE course

IGCSE PE at Wellington College Hangzhou allows our pupils to study both the practical and theoretical aspects of Physical Education. The course is designed to provide our pupils with the opportunity to participate in a range of physical activities and develop their understanding of effective performance in their own sports. It suits pupils who represent the school sports teams or play for a club outside of school. It will take their sporting prowess to a higher level while helping them understand the physical, social and psychological involvement and link to sport. We support our pupils in their learning to develop an appreciation of the necessity for sound knowledge and understanding of the principles, practices and training that underlie improved performance and the necessity for better health and wellbeing.

How important is the theoretical knowledge component of the IGCSE PE course?

There is a significant theoretical component to this course. IGCSE Physical Education at Wellington College Hangzhou provides the opportunity to study the theory behind sports and activity. This is taught in the classroom. The theory (50% of the course) and practical (50% of the course) combination make the study of IGCSE PE at this level exciting, challenging and enjoyable.

Pupils at Wellington College Hangzhou enjoy three lessons a week (2 classroom-based theory lessons and one practical lesson) where they study the following topics:

- Anatomy and Physiology

- Health, Fitness and Training

- Skill acquisition and psychology

- Social, cultural, and ethical influences

What is assessed in the formal IGCSE PE exam?

The theory elements of the course will be assessed at the end of Year 11 and will be worth 50% of the overall grade. In addition, a written exam, lasting 1 hour and 45 minutes, which will include a mixture of short and long answers, as well as multiple choice questions, will test pupils’ knowledge in the learnt topics that have anatomy and physiology, health, fitness and training; skill acquisition and psychology; and social, cultural and ethical issues.

The remaining 50% of the course includes practical assessments in four different sports covering at least two categories: games; dance; gymnastics; athletics; swimming; OAA (Outdoor Adventure Activities); and combat. These four assessments will take place throughout the two-year course. For this reason, pupils must be willing to fully engage in all practical activities we offer during curriculum time and commit themselves to extra-curricular activities, or school sporting activities (SAs), to improve their performance further. We support pupils who play sports outside school, such as golf, skiing, horse riding or dance. Video evidence does have to be submitted to demonstrate the assessment criteria.

How dowe assess our pupils"performance?

Each member of the PE Department takes pride in everything that we do at Wellington College Hangzhou to support our pupil’s development in IGCSE PE and sport. We support them with their ambitions, areas of development, studies, and wellbeing, to name but a few. To ensure that pupils are successful at IGCSE, our team of specialist PE teachers draw on years of experience in their sporting fields to engage and teach our pupils everything they need to know. Continual assessment throughout the course, in the form of unit and mock exams, prepares our pupils for the rigour of the IGCSE exam, whilst enabling staff to identify and support pupils’ strengths and areas where they require development to achieve the best possible outcome.

The assessment objectives of the IGCSE PE course are as follows:

- To demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the theoretical principles that underpin performance in physical activities and sports.

- Apply knowledge and understanding of the theoretical principles to various physical activities and sports, including the analysis and evaluation of performance.

- To demonstrate the ability to select and perform appropriate skills to produce effective performance in four practical activities.

We encourage each pupil to take ownership of their learning by identifying these areas of development and completing additional revision questions and papers to ensure they can master the topics, questions, and appropriate exam techniques to be successful under the pressures of examinations.

What are the future career options after studying IGCSE PE?

If your child loves physical activity and sports, and is interested in developing their knowledge and a deeper understanding of the theoretical principles underpinning performance in their sport(s), then IGCSE Physical Education at Wellington College Hangzhou is the ideal choice. This course is excellent for building the foundations necessary for further study in Exercise and Sport Sciences, physiotherapy, PE teaching, sport psychology, professional athlete, sports analyst, sports marketing, or sports agent. Sport-related careers have increased significantly worldwide, and there’s no better foundation you require for this than studying IGCSE PE at Wellington College Hangzhou.With the IGCSE PE course, pupils demonstrate Huili’s identity, especially the identity of being Intellectual. We support Huili pupils to move into the world with the ability to think critically and engage in deep learning. They will be able to study beyond the bounds of the PE curriculum, be inquisitive and ask questions about everything around them, and be imbued with a life-long love of learning more about sports. It is also a course that showcases the Huili value of courage. We define courage at Huili as the ability to confront fear, pain, danger or uncertainty and take calculated risks in pursuing goodness. Every time our pupils go to the gym, the field, or the track, they demonstrate faith in themselves and perseverance and the courage to make breakthroughs and be a pioneer. We hope our Huili pupils will continue improving through the IGCSE PE learning and embrace the ever-changing world with psychological and physical strength.
