Conditions
ANALYTICAL EXPOSITION
Physical Performance:
Individual Indirect Interceptive (Badminton)
Focus area:
A. : Psychology
Length:
3-5 minutes with a combination of at least two modes of
presentation
Drafting:
Task context
Maximum one draft. (a draft is a completed response)
Teacher consultation allowed on the training journal
Throughout the Badminton unit, you have noted that your standard of skill performance
varies from week to week, game to game and even point to point. As you are practicing skills
you would expect that this would always be in a positive way as improved performance is the
purpose of practice. However you have experienced that this is not always the case and that
most often variation in your badminton performance is dependent on your mental frame of
mind.
During the term you participated in a series of teacher manipulated activities from which you
identified that confidence (belief), motivation (desire), and arousal levels (immediate
readiness) are the three most influential psychological factors in sports performance.
You have also had the opportunity to develop techniques to: combat low confidence and
overconfidence; increase motivation; and to maintain optimal arousal levels prior to and
during performance
Task
Select one of the most influential psychological factors and explain how your performance
has been affected by it.
Evaluate the effectiveness of the sports psychology techniques you utilized to improve your
badminton performance.
Task Guidelines
This independent inquiry requires you to evaluate the effectiveness of sports psychology
techniques that you have utilized to enhance your badminton performance. To complete the
research task, follow these steps.
1. Select the psychological factor that has most influenced the consistency of your
badminton performance
2. Generate and collect primary and secondary information
a.
This information is used as evidence to: support your selection of the psychological
factor; support your choice of sports psychology techniques; and justify the
usefulness of the psychological techniques you utilized during the unit.
b.
Primary evidence may include:

An analysis of research papers into relevant sports psychology techniques.

Journal responses to how your mental state and performance was affected
by the teacher-manipulated activities.

Journal noting your mental state of mind and your physical performance (if
possible this should be in digital format).

Knowledge on the importance of sports psychology in regard to skill
development and sports performance.
c.
3.
4.
Textual features
Use of secondary evidence should be used to further justify your evaluation
Sort and analyse the information:
a.
When using research, remember to analyse (breakdown the information and
select what is relevant for you) and evaluate (check for reliability and
accuracy of) your researched evidence.
b.
Record your researched material in a clear and logical fashion, keeping an
accurate record of all sources referred to, primary and secondary, print
and digital. A separate set of papers should be used for this purpose and
constantly updated. See School diary re. reference and bibliography
policy.
Develop research outcomes – use your research to support your response, that
is to provide justification to decisions about your own mental frame of mind to acquire
and perform badminton skills and the effectiveness of the strategies that you have
implemented.
Preparing and presenting your multimodal/spoken presentation
Construct a presentation that is in the appropriate genre, fluent and coherent, factually
accurate, clearly sourced throughout and that provides a correctly formatted reference list.
When presenting your multimodal or spoken presentation you may use:
 visual, aural or print resources such as PowerPoint, video clips (includes youtube),
the whiteboard and equipment for visual and aural impact
 palm cards, notes or a written text, if required, but remember to make good eye
contact with the audience.
 vocal features such as volume, pace, pitch, tone, articulation.
In your multimodal or spoken presentation, you must be certain to acknowledge your
sources, not just when acknowledging a direct quote. For instance, include references on a
PowerPoint.
