Evaluation in Biomechanics of Human Movement I

Base Knowledge

Knowledge at the enter level in physiotherapy

Teaching Methodologies

Theorical lectures practical classes (T8;T/P17) are designed to deliver information about movement tests for physiotherapy diagnosis and develop the ability to understand their meaning in the physiotherapy diagnosis.

Learning Results

 Plan, implement and adjust analysis and assessments of posture, movement, balance and gait using the instrumentation available systematically, safely, efficiently and decisively;

Collect, select, analyse and interpret critically the experimental data relevant to the human movement;

Communicate information, ideas, problems and solutions arising from the analysis and assessment.

Possess knowledge and understanding of the analysis and assessment of posture, movement, balance and gait and know how to apply the knowledge and understanding acquired.

Ability to collect, process, select, analyse, interpret and integrate critically the experimental data relevant to the human movement, support the resolution of problems and the issue of judgments;

Possess skills to communicate information, ideas, problems and solutions arising from the analysis and assessment;

Possess learning skills in the areas of analysis and assessment approached
