| Kursens lärandemål | At the end of the course, the students should be able to: * formulate clear research questions in the field of movement science and be able to set up adequate experiments for them. * in groups, conduct a scientific experiment in the movement laboratory. * analyse kinematic, kinetic and EMG data. * clearly present the results in oral and written form (including graphs). *-- evaluate their results by comparing them with the litterature. |
| Kursens innehåll | * Working in the lab with computerised movement analysis systems: o Kalibrering, datainsamling och analys o Signal processing of movement trajectories from reflecting markers, of Electromyography (EMG) and force plate data. * Biomechanics * Motor control * Muscle physiology * Training in experimental skills * Training in presentation skills |
| Arbetsformer | This course has three parts. The first part is a theoretical part, in which the students learn the basics of movement science by means of lectures, group work litterature studies and individual work (3 days). The second part is laboratory work in which the students learn a) the principals of computerised movement analysis systems with calibration, marker placement, EMG, and forceplate measurements; b) learn to formulate a movement scientific research question (PM); and c) learn to accomplish an laboratory experiment - group work (5 days). The last part is the presentation part, in which the students present their laboratory results in both a written rapport and in zig-zaw group seminars (2 days). |
| Examination | The teachers give their judgement on the oral presentations and the written laboratory report. Moreover, student peer assessment on the oral presentations. |
| Obligatoriska moment | This course has three compulsory parts: 1. Oral presentation of the movement scientific research question (PM-presentation). 2. Active participation in the laboratory experiment. 3. Active participation in the zig-zaw group seminars. Absence at these compulsory parts, the students have to compensate this with: 1. A written presentation of the movement scientific research question (PM). 2. Participate in an other laboratory experiment. 3. A written summary of a number of laboratory reports, including reflecting comments. |
| Antal studenter | 6 - 20 |
| Urval av studenter | Those students that have (the possibility to collect) own data are in priority, because collecting data at our lab is very time consuming. Otherwise, those that have reached their half-time seminar are the other group that will be offered a place in the course in case of lack of places. |
| Ytterligare information | We run on the course on thursdays and fridays, 8-9 march, 15-16 march, 22-23 march, 29-30 march with lots of space for working on your own data. The final seminars will be held during 19 and 20 april. |
