Data Collection
1.1
“Explain why you used the two methods to identify
factors impacting on performance.”
Your answer must:
 Identify the first method you used, provide an example
and why you used this method.
 Identify the second method you used, provide an example
and why you used this method.
For example…
Method 1
 I used a standardised fitness test by completing the
cooper run. This involved setting up 6 cones in a
hexagon shape with 20m distance between each cone.
This test focuses on aerobic endurance and so gave
me information about my cardio respiratory endurance
(CRE) level. By recording how many laps I completed
and calculating my distance covered within 12 minutes.
I could then use this data to compare my results to
the national norms for my age group. This helped me
identify if my CRE was a strength or development
need.
For example…
Method 2
 I used a movement analysis sheet to compare my own
performance in the 1500m to performance model
criteria. This involved a partner to first film my
performance so I could watch it back and fill in the
movement analysis sheet accurately which included a
list of all the technical factors and the correct
running technique. This gave me valid information
about all parts of a 1500m run which could then be
used to identify any areas for development. This
method was also helpful for setting targets as I had a
clear image in my mind of the running technique I
should have and what I should look like when running.

Performance
Now it’s your turn to write an answer…
Remember! To follow the structure
provided and when explaining…
 Identify the method? – DEFINE
 Provide an example? – EXPLAIN
 Why you used that method? - JUSTIFY
