throughout the lifecycle including special populations. Particular reference will be made to the application of
sports nutrition and guidelines to athletes.
Learning Outcomes for the module
Please use the appropriate headings to group the Learning Outcomes. While it is expected that a module will have LOs covering a range of knowledge and skills, it is not necessary that all four headings are covered in every module. Please delete any headings that are not relevant. You should number the LOs sequentially to enable mapping of assessment tasks. Where a LO meets one of the UEL core competencies, please put a code next to the LO that links to the competence. Digital Proficiency - Code = (DP) Industry Connections - Code = (IC) Emotional Intelligence Development - Code = (EID) Social Intelligence Development - Code = (SID) Physical Intelligence Development - Code = (PID) Cultural Intelligence Development - Code = (CID) Community Connections - Code = (CC) UEL Give-Back - Code = (UGB) Cognitive Intelligence – Code = (COI) At the end of this module, students will be able to: Knowledge 1. Critically analyse the role of nutrition on performance Thinking skills 2. Critically evaluate application of sport nutrition to specific group and population. Subject-based practical skills 3. Recognise the appropriate method required and conduct both theoretical and practical analyses of energy expenditure and energy intake and critique the level of accuracy achieved in these measures (PID, DP). 4. Successfully Implement a range of anthropometric test (CID; IC; EID). 5. Plan and implement dietary advice appropriate for specific sporting condition (DP; IC). Skills for life and work (general skills) 6. Demonstrate a good awareness of how the academic principles underpinning nutrition relate to sporting populations (COI). 7. Communicate findings derived from academic means to a general population (using leading video platforms) (DP; IC; SID)
