Description

Anatomy applied to physical activity and sport presents the foundations of human anatomy and functional anatomy through a conceptual, historical, methodological, and terminological study of anatomy.

A study of the forms, structures and functions of the different elements of the locomotor, cardiovascular, respiratory and nervous systems will also be carried out. The latter will have an exclusive treatment of the most important structures in relation to movement.

Therefore, the main objective of the subject will be to enable students to be able to understand the functional mechanism of the locomotor apparatus and to know the morphology of the most important organs of systematic anatomy.

The gender perspective will be an aspect that the teaching staff will take into account by making an inclusive and non-sexist use of language and promoting the equal participation of everyone in a respectful and inclusive environment both in lectures and in practice sessions. Female bibliographic references will be provided in the classroom to the extent that the subject allows it and the full first name of the authors will be used. Regarding the images of the content in the teaching material, the non-perpetuation of stereotypes will be encouraged.

Learning outcomes

RA1. Identify the main historical facts of anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics, as well as know how to recognize the study methods and recording techniques most used in these disciplines and interpret their data and graphics.

LO2. Identify the morphological aspects on which human movement is based, as well as use and explain anatomical terminology accurately.

LO3. Analyze the movements and interpret the participation of the joints and muscles involved, as well as the other factors that determine them.

Working methodology

Activity	ECTS	Methodology	Assessed skills
Theoretical sessions	6	Face-to-face theoretical exhibitions with audiovisual support, simulations, group work	B2, E1, G2, G6, G11, T3, T4
Study and group work	2	Information searches, preparation and presentation of a group project	B2, E1, G2, G6, G11, T3, T4
Practical sessions	2	Guided work and debate, palpation, worksheets and quizzes	B2, E1, G2, G6, G11, T3, T4
Study and autonomous, individual work	2	Independent study and work based on reading recommended texts, articles and guides. Study of contents developed in the subject. Preparation of evaluations	B2, E1, G2, G6, G11, T3, T4

Learning activities

The subject's activities follow the continuous assessment system, that is to say that throughout the term the teaching staff proposes several activities, which the students must solve and hand in.

The work of each of the activities allows the students to evaluate the follow-up of the subject and the elements of improvement, based on the comments and notes that the teachers will make of the activities.

The proposed activities can be individual or in work groups. The teaching staff will provide the instructions so that the students can prepare and deliver them.

All the activities that are proposed are designed so that the students have a practical perspective of the topics that develop throughout the ten weeks of the term.

Evaluation system

The evaluation of the subject is continuous, through different tools to assess the different skills needed to pass the subject.

The evaluation of the subject will be done through the following evaluation activities:

Evaluation activity	Weighting	Assessed skills
Teamwork	20%	B2, E1, G2, G6, G11, T3, T4
Theoretical final exam	35%	B2, E1, G2, G6, G11, T3, T4
Final exam images	20%	B2, E1, G2, G6, G11, T3, T4
Continuous assessment in internships	25%	B2, E1, G2, G6, G11, T3, T4

For the exam grade (55%) to be averaged with the rest of the grades obtained during the course of the subject, it will be necessary to obtain a grade equal to or higher than 5 points out of 10. The approved grade of the subject is obtained with a rating equal to or higher than 5 points (out of 10 points).

Qualification system (Royal Decree 1125/2003, of 5 September, which establishes the European credit system and the qualification system for university degrees of an official nature and valid throughout the national territory):

0 - 4,9: Suspension (SS)

5,0 - 6,9: Approved (AP)

7,0 - 8,9: Notable (NT)

9,0 - 10: Excellent (SB)

When the qualification of the subject is of Excellent (mark superior to 9 points) the educational of the asignatura will be able to consider if the student chooses to obtain the qualification of matrícula of honor (MH).

The final exam will comprise all the contents and will be carried out at the end of the course, during the evaluation period of the term in which it is taught and / or during the recovery period.

To take the exam, the student must have a minimum of 80% attendance in practical classes (7 practicals).

In accordance with current regulations, you can only opt for recovery, if it has been suspended the subject. If the rating is Not presented, you will not be eligible for recovery.

The total or partial copy in any of the learning activities will mean a "Not Presented" in the subject, without option to present in the proof of recovery and without prejudice of the opening of a file for this reason.

Recovery:

Within the same course, there is the possibility of recovering skills not achieved during the course.

If the rating is Not presented, you will not be eligible for recovery.

In the recovery grade, the 20% related to the grades of the group work and the 25% related to the continuous evaluation in practicals is maintained, with the part of the theoretical exam and images being the recoverable part (55%).

Evaluation activity in recovery period	Weighting	Assessed skills
Exam (theoretical + images)	55%	B2, E1, G2, G6, G11, T3, T4

Schedule and Guide to Activities.

All assessment activities will have specific completion and delivery dates, which will be communicated to the students at the start of the subject through the Schedule and Activity Guide.

Practical sessions

A total of 9 practices will be carried out which will include group activities to deepen the anatomical knowledge of the syllabus as well as the anatomical palpation of structures related to the syllabus.

To take the exam, students must have a minimum of 80% attendance in practical classes (7 practicals).

Teamwork

The work weighs 20% of the final grade as indicated in the Activity Guide that will be communicated to students at the beginning of the subject. It must be presented orally on the day indicated in the schedule. After the presentation, questions will be asked by the teachers and students. The presentation must be delivered as well as a document with the content. The composition of the group will be determined in a list that will be uploaded to Moodle during the week that the subject begins.
