Contents Group training on land and in water with target group adaptation Strength training and testing of muscle strength based on theory and practice Cardiovascular training based on theory and practice Testing of cardiovascular function by submaximal bicycle ergometer test (Åstrand) theory and practice. Basic scientific theoretical concepts and research methodology with application in physiotherapy and the role of science in society Be familiar with the research paradigm in physiotherapy Review of scientific articles Preparation of a scientific report including problem formulation, a run-through of current research in the subject and reference management Reflect on the role of the physiotherapist in society from an entrepreneurial and trainer perspective Learn how to perform a simple screening and motion analysis of the musculoskeletal system in order to detect incorrect performance and deficiencies in execution of movements and muscle balance RealizationLearning on the course is to a large extent based on the student's own activities both individually and in tutorial groups. Learning takes place through lectures, laboratory sessions, own physical training and the study of literature, including scientific articles. Learning in group training takes place in the form of group assignments, where the group designs a group gymnastics session, interleaved with a lesson on practical implementation methods and lectures. Learning in strength and cardiovascular training and strength and cardiovascular testing takes place in the form of group assignments where the student creates and tests an individually designed strength training programme for a fellow student, while the student him/herself follows an individually designed cardiovascular and strength training programme. The student's own training is documented in a training journal. Completion of the individual cardiovascular and strength training programme is compulsory for a Pass grade. Learning of scientific methods takes place through self-study, lectures and discussions and is applied through the preparation of a scientific report and article reviews with associated seminar exam. In order to explore and be able to describe his/her role as a physiotherapist and trainer from an entrepreneurial and social perspective, the student has to answer and reflect on a number of questions.Examination Learning outcome 1 is examined in practice by the performance of a group training programme and written description of the group training programme (test 0001) Learning outcomes 2-3 and 7 are assessed through individual written assignments for strength and cardiovascular training programmes and completed tests and practical examination for strength training and screening (test 0002) Learning outcomes 4-5 are examined through a scientifically designed individual written report and a seminar (test 0003) Learning outcome 6 is examined through an individual written assignment (test 0004) RemarksThis course provides the basis for further studies in physiotherapy in terms of assessment, analysis and individually adapted training. This is a first-cycle course. Study supervision is provided in the course room in Canvas. A Pass grade in this course constitutes the specific entry requirement for placement courses and the degree project.Transition termsThe course is equal to S0058HExaminerJenny RödingTransition termsThe course S0085H is equal to S0058HLiterature.
