Year 13 students

As day two of the GCSE practicals are going on tomorrow I need you to complete the following pieces of work:

• Research the Athlete Career and Education Programme (ACE) for Australian athletes
• Watch this clip - AIS in Canberra - and note any additional information you had not picked up in your previous research.
• For Australia, East Germany & USA draw up seperate flow diagrams showing the stages an athlete goes through to reach the elite level in each of the countries
• From that, draw up a discussion piece that compares what has been taken / modified from one country and used in another system.  Has the strategy that was taken been adapted successfully?

So on Thursday you are to bring with you the work I have listed above along with:

• Overview of the AIS
• The research you found on the Super Roo bike (I am not expecting this to be a copy and pasted article from a website)
• The questions I gave you on the USA system.

If you encounter any issues please see me before Thursday

Please do some research on the structure of the AIS, you can find a web link on the right hand side of this page.

Then look into the 'Super Roo bike', research how it was developed in conjunction with the AIS.
