“…Specifically, this study sought to a) generate consensus for the content of skills within the MAT, and; b) establish the format of the assessment and scoring approach to be used, considering the target users being both generalist teachers and specialist PE teachers. A Delphi poll (RAND, 1967), which draws upon the expertise of invited participants through numerous polling rounds to reach consensus agreement (Okoli & Pawlowski, 2004), was chosen as an appropriate method to establish face and content validity of movement-oriented measurement tools (Jimenez-Garcia et al, 2020).…”

The aim of this study was to establish the content of a teacher-oriented movement assessment tool (MAT) for children aged 4-7 years. A three-round Delphi poll with an international panel of forty-six academics and practitioners was conducted. Consensus was reached on a selection and number of fundamental movement skills to be assessed with four stability (one foot balance, walk forwards along a line, front support, and sideways roll), five object control (two handed catch, underarm throw, overarm throw, kicking a ball, dribbling a ball with hands), and five locomotor (run, hop, horizontal jump, side-stepping, and skipping). A developmental stage approach and processoriented scoring were deemed most suitable. These findings present the requisite elements to develop a teacher-oriented MAT for children aged 4-7 years. This framework would provide teachers the opportunity to effectively assess children's FMS and subsequently intervene to improve movement competence.
