REACTIVITY

[brayden]

on the 2009 exam, the question asked what would reduce reactivity? any explanations?

[Aqualim]

It means to reduce the reaction of others. e.g. for that direct observation question, the people who you are assessing may act a certain way just because you are assessing them i.e. social desirability

So in order to reduce this, you have to think of ways to ensure the students have no idea they are being tested

cheers mate.
i was doing the 2008 one the other day, and it was asking what reduces the length of EPOC?
i talked about an active recovery, but the answer said passive. any ideas?

This could occur because of the temperature. You aren't going to cool down if it's 35 degrees, the last thing you want to be doing is more exercise even if its low intensity. Therefore passive was more suitable. If you ever see a question relating to a high temperature think of othre strategies rather than passive or active. Ice baths is one

thanks man, good luck.

[Aqualim]

thanks man, good luck.

Cheers mate you too

since you seem to be smashing my questions. heres a few more while im studying...
physical activity log/diary is different to a self report?
and when does aerobic overtake anaerobic as most predominant energy supply? some say 60 seconds while others say 75..

Hmm well aerobic overtakes anaerobic at 75 seconds where they have a fairly even contribution, but the Aerobic energy system is predominant from 30 seconds onwards

Self-report measures are logs, diaries etc.

yeah thats what i thought.
what are you aiming for tomorrow? you have methods first?

[Aqualim]

Yeah I have methods and the P.E unfortunately, not too fussed about methods. P.E will be an aspect of my career therefore it takes priority. I'm hoping for a 48+, we will see how I go. Yourself?

[brayden]

yeah same here, its really annoying. i might put some notes on PE into my methods book, because its only like an hour break in between.
but i've just focused on PE over the weekend because it should be my prime subject. i'm hoping for around a 45+, which will hopefully get me around a 90 for my enter.
the only things that worry me with PE are those vague multiple choice questions i come across sometimes, i dont know if its just me, but i cant stand MC.

Some multiple choice are fairly straight forward, but there are others with two potential answers which cause you to guess. haha so your gonna study for your P.E exam in your methods exam, nicely done. Don't worry about it too much, you still got all morning tomorrow to go over your notes

[brayden]

yeah there the ones. like the one on the 2009 exam with the poster, i mean sure its an environmental strategy, but they way they worded the question it seemed like it was asking about the specific use of the poster.
haha thanks man, it seems like you've got everything sorted
