Teaching methods
Teaching is carried out in a practical form in small groups of the summer training course. Students perform an analysis of the client's movement first under professional guidance, then independently. The movement analysis is extended by a comprehensive kinesiology analysis with the determination of a short-term and long-term physiotherapy plan. This plan is implemented during the course under the professional supervision of teachers.
Assessment methods
Practical exam, oral assessment. Written processing and successful defense of processed client case reports. The student must complete all the prescribed activities, usually 4. In order to successfully master it, it is necessary to complete at least 3 of them. The limit is determined according to the current weather conditions.
