Abstract
Using
an
instructional
development
model
an
instructional
package
was
developed
for
use
in the
Province
of
Newfoundland's
Grade
X
credit
physical
education
programme.
A
survey
of
teachers
indicated
that the
subject
areas:
--
i.
Measurement
of
fitness.
--
ii.
Maximum
oxygen
uptake
test.
--
were
considered
most
needing
of
additional
instructional
materials.
A
further
survey
indicated
that the
preferred
instructional
media
was a
student
booklet.
--
The
booklet
was
produced
and
refined
through
a
process
of
formative
evaluation
in
which
changes
were
suggested
by
content
,
learner
and
media
experts
, and by a
sample
of
learners.
--
A
summative
evaluation
was
undertaken
using
a
two
group
design
in
which
group
A
undertook
a
pre-test
studied
the
material
and then
took
a
post-test
,
which
group
B
studied
the
material
and then
took
the
post-test.
Basic
biographical
data
was
collected
from
both
groups.
--
The
results
indicated
that by
virtue
of the
instructional
package
learning
occurred
to a
significant
degree
and that
post-test
scores
were not
affected
to a
significant
degree
by
exposure
to the
pre-test
or by the
student's
previous
or
concurrent
exposure
to
high
school
biology.
--
It
was
concluded
that the
instructional
package
met
the
pre-determined
criterion
of
acceptable
performance
in that
greater
than
80%
of the
sample
achieved
success
on
80%
or
more
of the
stated
behavioral
objectives.
