2. practical assessments/field work – 40%
Assessment by Exam:
1. Written test – 100%.
Learning Results
1. Identification of the object of study of the analysis of human movement and the conceptual foundations applyied in sports and physical activities.
2. Apply conceptual models, instruments and methodologies sustained on the knowledge of the anatomy and mechanics using deterministic and non-deterministic models.
3. Development of the capacity of analysis of human movement, as specific means of intervention in the prescription of exercise in the field of sports and physical activity
