On completion of the course, the student should be able to:
1. describe and analyse human movements from a biopsychosocial perspective.
2. examine and with adequate terminology document joint mobility, balance, muscle function and aerobic capacity.
3. examine and with adequate terminology document psychological and social factors that influence people's movement behaviour.
4. apply theories and models of learning and change of movement behaviour through physiotherapy.

Instruction
The course is given in the form of lectures, practical exercises, seminars, field studies and group assignments.
The contents of every teaching occasion can constitute a basis for examination also in those cases when attendance is not compulsory.
Assessment
Passing the course requires:
Active participation in seminars (examine aims 1-6)
Passed written examination (examines aim 1-3, 5)
Passed oral/practical examination (examines aims 1-3, 5)
Passed written reports (examine aims 1-6)
Students who have failed the examination have the right to undergo renewed examination further 4 times (=totalt 5 the examination occasions). If special circumstances apply, the programme committee can admit additional examination. Each time the student participates in an examination is counted as one examination attempt. Submission of a so-called blank exam is counted as an examination attempt. The student has right to request a change of examiner after two failed examinations.
If there are special reasons for doing so, an examiner may make an exception from the method of assessment indicated and allow a student to be assessed by another method. An example of special reasons might be a certificate regarding special pedagogical support from the University's disability coordinator.
