Basic knowledge about human movement. The topic contains the basic principles of control processes for the locomotor system and applies these processes in clinical practice. Part of the course is also an analysis of the structure and function of individual segments of the human body, taking into account the role of their disorder in the context of the whole body.

Learning Outcomes

The aim of the course is to provide students with the knowledge, skills, and general competencies so that after the completion of the course the students:

• demonstrates the ability to develop knowledge about the control processes of the musculoskeletal system so that the student will be able to apply these in clinical practice

• demonstrates the ability to orient in the structure and function of individual segments of the human body, taking into account the role of their disorder in the context of the whole body.

• demonstrates the ability to detect a failure of the structure, failure of control processes and logistics, so that the failure is evaluated at an initial stage, when it may not manifest itself clinically

• demonstrates the ability to present and apply procedures individually and purposefully.

• demonstrates the ability to discuss the selected procedures in connection with the prevention of human damage by non-physiological overload in movement behavior.

• demonstrates the ability to apply knowledge of kinesiology to maintain physical fitness, support the harmonious development of intellectual abilities
