Sports, Excercise And Health Science

Group 4 subject
Assessments from 2018 to 2025

Description

Sports, exercise, and health science (SEHS) is an experimental science course combining academic study with practical and investigative skills. SEHS explores the science underpinning physical performance and provides the opportunity to apply these principles. The course incorporates the disciplines of anatomy and physiology, biomechanics, psychology, and nutrition. Students cover a range of core and option topics and carry out practical (experimental) investigations in both laboratory and field settings. The course offers a deeper understanding of the issues related to sports, exercise, and health in the 21st century and addresses the international dimension and ethics related to both the individual and the global context. Apart from being worthy of study in its own right, SEHS is good preparation for courses in higher or further education related to sports fitness and health, and serves as useful preparation for employment in sports and leisure industries. Both the SL and HL have a common core syllabus, internal assessment scheme, and overlapping elements in the options studied. While the skills and activities are common to all students, HL requires additional material and topics within the options. Through studying any of the group 4 subjects, students should become aware of how scientists work and communicate, and the variety of forms of the "scientific method" with an emphasis on a practical approach through experimental work.
