Inquiry Resource

The resource I chose is an article called Digital video: The impact on children’s learning experiences in primary physical education. I chose this resource because it provides an aspect of two topics around my inquiry proposal. It gives a good analysis of both assessment and technology for assessment. It also provides a more focused view of how to use technology for assessment. The article goes in-depth into self-assessment and assessment for learning. The article also describes how to use technology for teaching and learning. This is a well detailed article giving a specific type of technology for assessment in a specific focus area. It gives specific examples about how students can learn through using technology for assessment. The article is a study on how students learned to improve specific basketball skills through watching video evidence, a rubric that students filled out and a focus group. Another key aspect of this article is how self-assessment is linked to self-regulation. This article which discussed a qualitative inquiry project about self-assessment, technology, and physical education is an excellent, well documented resource for these various topics. I look forward to delving into this resource further as well as looking for resources that might refute my expectations for this inquiry project.
