Description
Assessment practices traditionally utilised used in schools to evaluate physical capabilities of students are often superficial, inaccurate, and potentially biased leading to unreliable reporting (see DinanThompson & Penney, 2015). Furthermore, resultant of academic focus on literacy, numeracy and STEM subjects, what happens in HPE, flies ‘under the radar’, thereby avoiding accountability to be purposeful and meaningful (see Penney, 2020, Penney, in press). This research project aimed to determine how the use of digital technologies could address this identified problem.
