Higher PE - Social scenario
Let's look at a scenario for social factors. In this example, information is provided in the form of a picture and a quote.
Scenario
In the Scenario section of your exam, you may be presented with a picture which you must interpret and make sense of.
A team that get on well with each other will make more progress in training than a team that does not.
Q) Evaluate how effective social factors can be during performance development. (4).
Applying the technique
- Read the question(s) first:
- your answers must refer to the social factor.
- you must relate your answers to performance development (training).
- you must give a judgement and evidence why this judgement was provided in your evaluations.
- Now look at the picture and quote provided:
- the picture shows a united team who appear to get on well with each other.
- the quote is very open ended and can apply to any social factors so long as they are positive, for example:
- communication
- contribution
- etiquette
- team dynamics
Now use 2. as a checklist and write out your answer whilst remembering what the question is asking of you in 1.
