Class Motor and Technical-Tactical Skills Training

1. Understand the value and relevance of motor and technical-tactical skills among the multiple determinants of sports performance. 2. Contribute to the specialization of coaches in sports, enabling them to acquire and deepen knowledge and methods of intervention related to planning, conducting, monitoring, and evaluating the training process within the scope of motor and technical-tactical skills in athletes of high-performance training. 3. Provide sports technicians with knowledge, enabling them to master training assessment and control tools specific to different sports and to contribute to their specialization in the area of their sports intervention.

By studying all factors, the designation of the Curricular Unit and its content organization intends to avoid an analytical-reducing perspective of the understanding of movement and sports performance. The program includes the following chapters: 1 Sports technique, design, objectives, means, and learning and development methods. Technical training in various sports - meaning, similarity, and diversity. 2. Sports tactics, conception, objectives, means, and learning and development methods. Tactics training in various sports - meaning, similarity, and diversity. 3 Training and development of endurance, speed, strength, agility, and flexibility in different contexts of sports performance, other modalities, and age levels. 4. Load monitoring and training evaluation and control of different motor skills.

Theoretical and theoretical-practical classes are taught. Information, questioning, and questioning of concepts in their interaction and validation with reality, giving rise to critical reflection by students, will constitute the privileged teaching method. Articles, observation reports, and dissertations will constitute predominant teaching instruments. In addition, the b-learning system will also be used, based on the Moodle platform, where didactic support materials will be available for each of the classes (slides and supporting texts). Students will be assessed through analysis of articles, group work (2 elements) to present and discuss in class, and a frequency on topics previously proposed and approved by the conductor.
