Learning outcomes
At the end of the course the student: - is responsible for the analysis of the efficiency of the effector system and of the static and dynamic postural response using modern technologies; - in particular, is able to design the Kinesiology intervention aimed at consolidating the state of form, the prevention of degenerative atrophic morbidity, the disposition and control of physical exercise in trofostatic syndromes, alterations of the capacity of the cardiovascular system and in the recovery of different physical abilities.

Readings/Bibliography
The student is informed that the deepening of the topics requires constant updating related to new instrumental technologies and scientific evidence concerning the various application methodologies. Precisely for this reason and also for the multiplicity of topics, the lessons will be held with the help of slides that will be a reference for further study with the recommended texts. To follow the lessons it is advisable to refer to the teaching material deposited during the previous academic year and then integrate it with the lessons held in the classroom.
The course does not have a single reference text. A useful volume is however the following:
Autori vari- Esercizio Correttivo "Postura, Salute e Performance "- Giacomo Catalani Editore 2016 e successive edizioni
Teaching methods
Lectures for basic subjects, supplemented by exercises with organized groups and with compulsory attendance.
During the course, seminars will be organized by highly qualified personnel regarding application aspects. The topics of the seminars carried out will form an integral part of the program and can be verified during the examination
Assessment methods
Written exam on the topics developed during the lectures and exercises, consisting of:
- Open-ended questions
- Multiple choice questions
Total questions No. 31 (vote 0-30 + Praise with the 31st). Time available: 60 minutes
If the student fails to achieve a positive result, after having taken three exam sessions, he can ask for an oral interview. The rejected vote is not considered.
To take part in the written tests it is necessary to register on the lists available on the AlmaEsami system at least 4 days in advance (important for the organization of the tasks or the division of the groups, in the case of numerous members)
Only students enrolled on the scheduled terms are allowed to take the exam.
During the academic year the exam sessions will be seven:
N ° 3 June-July;
N ° 1 September:
N ° 3 February-March
Teaching tools
The lessons will be accompanied by visual and audiovisual supports. As part of the practical exercises, the course has equipment for the evaluation and teaching of motor activity in reference to the Adapted Physical Activity
Teaching material: The teaching material presented in class is made available to the student in electronic format via the Internet. This material will provide the guidelines for in-depth studies carried out during the lessons
