29. So… How does this course fit into the study of kinesiology?

31. You will… be able to answer, in part, the following questions: What causes movement? How can a movement be changed to improve performance and/or prevent injury? learn the language of kinesiology and gain basic knowledge about movement causes and outcomes. develop observation, analytical, and evaluative skills necessary for analyzing human movement.

32. Course Objectives 1.Explain the roles that the subdisciplines of functional anatomy and biomechanics play in the study of human movement. 2.Demonstrate knowledge of how skeletal and muscular architecture and function interact to create forces and torques that contribute to injury and human movement performance.

33. Course Objectives 3.Demonstrate knowledge of how the human body and the external environment interact to create the forces and torques necessary that contribute to human performance and musculoskeletal injury. 4.Identify structural and mechanical factors that limit successful performance in human movement activities.

34. Course Objectives 5.Perform a systematic qualitative anatomical analysis of human movement activities or skills in sport, dance, exercise, rehabilitation, work, and daily living.
