Specific and individual-oriented physical training programmes based on the individual’s physical condition are compiled and supervised.
Physical assessments for different individuals and groups are planned, executed and interpreted.
Appropriate and scientifically sound physical activities, physical fitness and exercise programmes for individuals and groups are designed.
Biokinetics technology is used in a professional and scientific manner when implementing activities and programmes.
Patience, compassion and empathy are demonstrated when communicating with individuals and groups in a variety of Biokinetics contexts.
A variety of different evaluation protocols for different individuals and groups in therapeutic and recreational contexts are planned, implemented and interpreted.

Understanding of the influences of internal and external factors and the use of ergogenic aids and supplements on exercise and physical activity are demonstrated.
The physical abilities required of people to perform their jobs or tasks are assessed.
Applicable exercise programmes that would enable a person to perform a certain job or task are designed and prescribed.
A person’s level of disability to perform his/her daily tasks is assessed.

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 3:
The general history is recorded with a view to determining the risks of exercise (if any) for the individual.
Exercise programme prescription for special groups and professions are evaluated.
The physical work capacity of an individual is determined with the aid of a cycle ergometer or treadmill, monitoring equipment and available associated equipment.
An effective and safe exercise level for an exercise programme prescription is determined using the following tests: Monitoring of heart rate with an electrocardiograph or heart rate monitor during multistage workloads; measuring of blood pressure and other physiological responses before, during and after work; measuring of range of motion and muscle strength; evaluating of body posture and body composition.
Prescription, follow-up of and guidance of specific excercise programmes are conducted.
An Orthopaedic final phase rehabilitation programme prescription is planned and implemented.
A Rehabilitation session on specialised equipment such as the electronic-hydraulic isokinetic systems is conducted.

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 4:
Laboratory tests and experiments in the field of human exercise physiology are planned, conducted and interpreted.
Understanding of Nutrition and Biochemistry as it relates to Exercise Physiology is demonstrated.
Understanding of the effects of different types of exercise on the Cardiovascular, Pulmonary, Neuromuscular, Metabolic and Endocrine Systems to real and simulated cases is applied.
Rehabilitation programmes to restore a person’s function after suffering an injury or contracting a disease are designed.

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 5:
Specific history of the condition and previous treatment, and a general medical history are recorded and understood.
Specific assessment of the affected limb or body part is conducted.
Manual determination of the range of motion; muscle strength; and flexibility is conducted.
The posture is analysed and specialised tests for muscle strength, muscle exhaustion and range of motion of joints are assessed.

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 6:
Research problems are identified, formulated, prepare and solved.
A research project is executed at the appropriate level.
Literature for a review is collected, organised, checked and evaluated and the appropriate information is organised in an understandable and logical manner.
Learning abilities are acquired in the research context including the assessment of Scientific Literature, execution of research methodologies including the gathering of data and evaluating the information obtained.
Conclusions, suggestions and recommendations based on the data collected that are logical and justifiable are made.

Integrated Assessment:
Learning and assessment are integrated. Continual formative assessment is required so that learners are given feedback on their progress in the achievement of specific exit level outcomes. Summative assessment is concerned with the judgment of the learning in relation to the Exit Level Outcomes of the qualification. Such judgment will include ‘Integrated Assessment(s)’ which will assess the learners’ ability to integrate the larger body of knowledge, skills and attitudes that are represented by the exit-level outcomes as a whole.

The learner will be assessed in the following manner:
Supervisor s(registered/qualified Biokineticists) will assess the learner at the site.
Learners will submit a report based on their activities (including Clinical and Orthopaedic).
The staff (registered Biokineticist) will assess the learner and submit a report.
The final assessment will be conducted by external assessors in the last month of internship (usually on campus and during the last month of year 4. The report will then be forwarded to Health Professionals Council of South Africa (HPCSA) for the learner to be registered as a Biokineticist.

The following Formative Assessment methods will be used:
Tutorial Sessions.
Presentations.
Contributions to discussions.
Demonstrations.
Role playing (Session Chair, Scriber).
Group work/participation.
Participation and contribution.
Facilitation.
Portfolios.
Skills Training.
Analysis.
Evaluation of Biokinetic procedures.
Work-based learning/clinical practice.
Use of the technologies.

The following Summative Assessment methods will be used:
Block evaluation.
Feedback forms/questionnaire.
Feedback and evaluation of meetings (including tutorials, skills training).
Feedback on students’ progress.
Evaluation of module objectives.
Written/practical examination.
Reports/Portfolios of internship from an accredited Biokinetics Practice/Centre.
