Exemplary X-stream module
Module: Principles of Physiology for Sport and Exercise
Module Leader: John O’Hara
Faculty: Carnegie Faculty of Sport and Education
This module for approximately 360 level 1 students in Semester 1 uses X-stream to provide additional resources and activities to complement face-to-face lectures and practical sessions. It is organised in a way that is clear and easy to follow from the students’ point of view, the Home Page containing links to a simple introduction/overview, lecture materials, the Module handbook, and timetable information. Two major aspects of the X-stream module were supporting material for the theoretical and practical aspects of the module, designed for self-study, and these were also accessible from the Home Page. This material included webpages to be read (automatically created from Word files), activities to carry out for feedback, learning objects, suggestions for further reading, and links to web resources.
