Human Movement Studies II

Base Knowledge

Anatomy, Physiology, Biophysics, Study of Human Movement.

Teaching Methodologies

The pedagogical methods and strategies adopted include: exposition, demonstration/exemplification, simulated practice among students, and problem solving.

Student support and follow-up mechanisms include face-to-face or remote assistance to clarify doubts and solve problems.

Learning Results

– To have the knowledge and ability of understanding in the field of instrumentation for human movement analysis;
– To know how to apply the acquired knowledge and ability of understanding in the kinematic, kinetic and
electromyographic analysis of the movement;
– To have ability to critically collect, process, select, analyze, interpret and integrate the relevant experimental data
on human movement, that substantiate the decision making, problem solving and making judgments;
– To develop skills to communicate information, ideas, problems and solutions arising from the instrumental
analysis and evaluation of human movement;
– To develop learning skills in the field of instrumentation for analysis and evaluation of human movement.

Program
