  • Demonstrate their ability to master a problem by posing an appropriate research question and, in some cases, formulating working hypotheses
  • Use the most appropriate method(s) to collect and process data
  • Correctly interpret the results obtained, taking a critical view of the scientific literature and being able to draw out prospects for future development or application in the field.
  • Be able to formulate concise conclusions that reflect the results of the research carried out.
Learning outcomes

At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to :

  • Write an original, in-depth piece of research (bibliographical or experimental/empirical) and reflection that demonstrates the student's mastery of a given subject in motor sciences with a focus on physical education (2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).
  • Make a public oral presentation of original research work to a panel of experts. (4.3)
  • Defend your work in front of a panel of experts. (4.1 and 4.3)
  • Manage your dissertation project (6.1, 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4)
 
Teaching methods
Completion of a research project through empirical and/or bibliographic research methods appropriate to the specific topic of the work.
Evaluation methods
☒ The course assessment comprises several components.
Component A – continuous assessment:
                     ☒ report
                     ☒ travail fournit
☒ Weighting of component A : 50 %
Component B – ☒ oral exam
☒ defense 
☒ Weighting of component B : 50 %
Specific requirement for passing: Memoires are assessed by an examination board. If the chair and the member(s) of the examination board unanimously consider the memoire to be largely inadequate, they may decide to refuse permission to proceed to the oral defence.
The carrying out of this work is subject to the ‘AI Use’ policy currently in force at the FSM (IA générative | Université catholique de Louvain). Students are required to complete the AI usage declaration form and attach it to their work.
