Competencies / Learning Outcomes

Specific skills

  • RAE2 - Explain the principles of biomechanics and electrophysiology, applying their main indications in the field of physiotherapy.

Presentation of the subject

The subject HUMAN ANATOMY II is based on and expands the subject HUMAN ANATOMY I with the following contents: teaching the musculoskeletal system of the lower limb and pelvis; and the morphology and functioning of the systems: reproductive and digestive. The study of the reproductive and digestive systems is necessary to approach the patient holistically, as the incorrect functioning of the different systems can influence or be related to musculoskeletal disorders.

The distribution of the theoretical and/or practical content of the subject can be consulted in the timetable and sections of the corresponding virtual classroom before it starts. This subject aims to introduce the gender perspective in its content and development. In addition, the objectives are aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda of the United Nations.

The classroom (physical or virtual) is a safe space, free of sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic and discriminatory attitudes, either towards students or towards teachers. We trust that together we can create a safe space where we can make mistakes and learn without having to suffer prejudice from others.

Activities and evaluation system

This subject may consider the following indicators detailed in the following table in its evaluation proposal:

Evaluation system Minimum weighting Maximum weighting
SE1. Electronic portfolio 10% 40%
SE2. Oral presentation 20% 50%
SE3. Exam 30% 60%
SE4. self-evaluation 5% 30%
SE5. Peer assessment (2P2) or co-assessment 5% 30%

 

A system of quantitative (from 0 to 10) and qualitative (suspended, approved, notable, excellent, honorary registration) is used according to RD 1125/2003.

The subjects will have evaluation and recovery activities in accordance with the teaching guide and the subject's learning plan, published in their virtual classroom and which will establish the necessary requirements to be able to participate.

In accordance with current UPF regulations, all students who, having participated in the learning and assessment activities during the term, have obtained a failing grade for the corresponding subject in the quarterly assessment may participate in the recovery process . Those who have not participated in the learning and assessment activities or who have waived the assessment will not be able to participate. If the grade is "not submitted", you will not be able to opt for recovery and therefore the subject will have to be taken again in its entirety in the following academic year.

Any form of academic fraud will be sanctioned in accordance with the center's assessment regulations. If signs of fraud are detected, including the improper use of generative artificial intelligence tools, the subject's teaching staff may call the student for an individual interview with the aim of verifying their authorship.

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in this subject is regulated in the Learning Plan. It must be consulted to find out the specific conditions of use.
