Learning activities and teaching methods
Lecture, Monologic Lecture(Interpretation, Training), Dialogic Lecture (Discussion, Dialog, Brainstorming)
Learning outcomes
Selected categories of general kinesiology - mechanical principles of movement as a function; kinematics - osteokinematics, arthrokinematics - movement classification with the aspect of mathematical-physical analysis and clinical morphological applications; kinetics - movement analysis via the aspect of power vectors.
Students will be able to use theoretical knowledge in clinical applications of individual mechanical movement principles in clinical practice.
