Learning Objectives

• Technical Theory, Methods and Teaching of preventative physical education-sports science, including focus on the developmental age
  

  The aims and goals of this course are that of providing the students with the understanding, knowhow, expertise, tools and techniques that are used to prevent and improve any morphological alterations to posture, as well as paramorphic and dysmorphic disorders in the human musculoskeletal system during the various stages of life, while also giving indications and limits on motor and sport activity in the mindset of prevention. During exams, the students must be able to show proper use of specific terms and vocabulary, as well as general concepts, along with the correct use of numerous techniques and the ability to apply, with the expertise acquired, a work schedule with a clear objective.
