Transcription

1 Module Synopsis The 12 modules composing the Foundation Course are comprised of a total of 109 sections, designed to be taken in series. Each section either has specific learning checks, or suggested tasks to complete before progressing onto the next section. In addition, content is complemented by a variety of definitions and glossary terms; discussions and explanations; graphics to illustrate key points; videos to complement the content; section summaries, and a variety of further learning resources and references designed to encourage critical thinking. Module 1 Biomechanical Concepts Introduction to Biomechanics Branches of Biomechanics Newton s Laws of Motion Biomechanical Terms and Concepts Motion Descriptors of Movement Flight & Angular Motion Torque, Coupled forces & Angular Momentum Summation of force Observation and Feedback
