MODULE ADDITIONAL ASSESSMENT DETAILS
Assessment 1: Practical Assessment: Students will perform a practical examination assessing students' application of upper extremity anatomy. Students will use their palpation skills learnt on the module to identify different structures on a skeletal model and human body. These structures will be in the areas of; osteology, myology, and arthrology. Learning Outcome 1 and 2
Formative assessment: Students will have access to a mock practical exam for feedback from the tutor
INDICATIVE CONTENT
This module aims to provide a knowledge and understanding of lower extremity musculoskeletal anatomy. At the end of the module students will gain an in-depth knowledge of lower extremity osteology, myology and arthrology. They will be introduced to traditional and contemporary concepts of anatomy and be able to apply this knowledge to sporting function and injury. Students will learn the musculoskeletal anatomy in both a theoretical way and practically. The students will be able to successfully identify bones and bony landmarks, muscles and the associated origins, insertions and actions and ligaments, on a diagram, skeletal structure and on a human model.
This understanding and applied knowledge is integral to the sports therapy and rehabilitation course and is a key building block for the development of an undergraduate sports therapist.rehabilitator
WEB DESCRIPTOR
Anatomy is an integral part of knowledge for a Sports RehabilitatorTherapist as it is the foundations of any assessment or treatment you will give to a client. This module allows you to understand musculoskeletal anatomy in both a theoretical way and practically. You will have the skills to identify bones and bony landmarks, specific muscle origins and insertions and how they work functionally in the body, on a diagram, skeletal structure and on a human model.
LEARNING STRATEGIES
In order to provide the best learning experience to our students, the sport therapy and rehabilitation team is committed to providing an environment that supports and encourages students to develop their knowledge, understanding and technical skills. To achieve this, we use a variety of teaching and learning techniques to meet the diverse needs of our students. These techniques include, but are not limited to, problem-based learning, context-based learning, simulation, and peer to peer learning. This approach ensures that students are able to contextualise their knowledge and understanding and best prepares them for employment.
This module will be taught predominantly face to face in the Sports Therapy and rehabilitation teaching clinic. Students will be taught the necessary theoretical understanding via both pre session material and face to face sessions. The majority of the sessions will be practical based and will allow students to gain valuable hands-on experience. It will also allow them to accurately identify the specific musculoskeletal anatomy needed to be a Sports Therapistrehabilitator. Students will also use the telehealth facilities to create their own digital content for revision purposes.
