Content

This unit builds on the knowledge and skills taught in the introductory unit, HSE726 Sport Performance Analysis, by developing a deeper understanding of the Performance Analysis process. Students will learn how to interrogate databases of performance data, using data visualisation and statistical analysis methods. This unit also explores the technology and methods used for time-motion analysis and explores advances in Performance Analysis technology. Finally, students are provided with the opportunity to integrate all of their Performance Analysis knowledge in a capstone assessment, by designing a comprehensive plan for the implementation of a Performance Analysis service.
