Data Analysis
| Data Shared With | Faculty and staff within our department |
|---|---|
| Data Sharing Methods | Face-to-face meetings |
| Data Summary | 100% of the students successfully performed the Sun Style Tai Chi Qigong 82% of students successfully performed the 6 Style Sun Tai Chi Chuan Form 100% of the students successfully performed the Yang Style Tai Chi Stationary Qigong 66% of students successfully performed the Yang Style Tai Chi Coiling Qigong 80% of the students successfully performed the Chen Style Tai Chi Bang |
| Analysis Summary | The criteria was that 80% of students would meet 80% of the measurements successfully |
| Next Steps Planned | Implement shorter sequences so students leave class having learned a complete sequence and have something complete to practice Will introduce Eight Brocades to replace the Yang Style Coiling Qigong as this set of movements is more difficult for everyone to do. Eight Brocades will do many of the same things to strengthen and stretch the body. Instructor will also adopt the American Arthritis Foundation materials for this class. |
| Learning Outcomes | Describe each exercise movement Perform each of the Tai Chi movements |
