LECTURES & Tutorials:

• Approximately 14 individual lectures & tutorials

LABORATORIES:

10 laboratories (1 per fortnight) (+ mid sem. exam)

ASSESSMENT:

Course Work 60%

•Final Exam (40%)

Course OutcomesCourse Outcomes• Describe movement from a biomechanical perspective.

• Understand how kinematic and kinetic variables relate to 2-D and 3 – D movements.

• Report the forces on the body during exercise and sporting activities.

• Apply the concepts of joint moments and muscle torque to exercise.

• Link basic muscle mechanics to exercise.

• Understand the characteristics of gait, while also expressing the kinematic and kinetic changes needed to change from walking to running gait.

• Be able to understand how the internal and external forces associated with movement inter-relate in optimal performance.

• Be able to critically appraise movement from a biomechanical perspective

Student ExpectationsStudent Expectations• Please be punctual for the start of lectures and laboratories.

• Please turn off your mobile phones during lectures and laboratories.

• Please see the lab coordinator as soon as you have missed a class.

• The first option is to attend another lab time but please

• A doctor’s certificate must be produced for a missed laboratory if the lab is not made up. (5% penalty may apply for missed labs).

Scinece examine the internal and external forcwes acting on the human and the effects produce by those forces
