UKCC Resource Development : 

UKCC Resource Development Steve McQuaid and Emma Atkins sports coach UK

Background : 

Background To inform partners of how sports coach UK current resources map across to the UKCC Making the most effective use of information that is currently held by sports coach UK to benefit the wider development of the UKCC

Action and results : 

Action and results Around 15 ‘core’ texts were audited Results showed that many texts mapped across levels. Results bitty and difficult to explain Challenges faced Subjective, inconsistencies “lost in translation” – mapping resource to criteria meant lots of references of different chapters of resources Learning resources – more than text – flexibility of needs from sports

Moving challenges to opportunities : 

Moving challenges to opportunities Process revised – what will be our starting point? A new sports coach UK Vision for learning resource developments to support the delivery of the UKCC – enhancing the use of sports coach UK coaching information in a flexible way to support and respond to learners needs – scUK Learning Resource Strategy

Managing the process! : 

Managing the process! The translation process – how are we all interpreting the criteria? The information mapping process – taking present resources, including information from initial process and looking at what we have, what needs enhancing and what we have not. Identifying what formats this information is in. The development process – utilising information effectively and developing a range of learning resources to support the learners needs

Translation -The Starting Point :

Translation process making it work : 

Translation process making it work Existing perceptions of levels of coach based on past experience / tradition Utilising the guidance criteria! Non-prescriptive to allow flexibility of ‘implementation’ Firm enough to provide real support and guidance Identifying the progression between levels, and the associated emphasis

Progression : 

Progression How? What? Why?

The Mapping Process - Explained : 

The Mapping Process - Explained The interpretation document as a starting point to give more of a guide to people involved in information mapping What information does sports coach UK have that would hit these elements where is the information? what format is it in? was the ‘emphasis’ right?

Overview of observations : 

Overview of observations Relatively small amounts of ‘how’ information across all the levels Reasonable amounts of ‘what’ information Current written resources don’t map holistically to specific levels (although some content/information does) Resources don’t overtly reflect principles of UKCC (e.g. integration)

Next stages – building on good information : 

Next stages – building on good information From the mapping information gained What do we have? What format it is in? How up to date is the information? What gaps are emerging? Who will fill these gaps? How can we use the information we have got and enhance it? What formats? What content? When will it be ready?

Making sure resources work for the coach : 

Making sure resources work for the coach A coach learning plan –a journey for the individual The continuous audit (catalogue of learning) giving options to the coach Coach will need supporting – 45 CDOs- mentors/coach developers A system that can do this!

Moving forward with learning resources to support UKCC : 

Moving forward with learning resources to support UKCC sports coach UK commitment to work with you to ensure learning resources hit timescales for endorsement. Sharing of information regarding the development of new resources for UKCC Commitment to new resources on How to skills at L1-3 Results to date on UKCC website end July Where do you see your emphasis – how could we work more effectively How can we work together – what do you want? Assistance to gather evidence of learners needs – research.

Moving forward together…. : 

Moving forward together…. Reflect on your coaches needs – “Mrs Fantastic” Build on the good information we all hold for coaches Take the key points from the workshops to help you move forward. Don’t forget text – be creative – training opportunity

Some time for reflection : 

Some time for reflection Time in smaller groups to reflect on what you have heard this morning. Reflecting back into your own practice – what might you do differently or focus on – sharing – this may not have been prompted by and maybe what already doing anyway either way Asking any questions for clarification What support can we give to and would you like from each other to create a learning community for all coaches?
