Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to involve students in practical activities that monitor the current activities of the human organism. Based on the theoretical knowledge of the functioning of the human body, students will be able to verify some information. Using new technology techniques and tools, students will be able to explore the functioning of their own body in both the laboratory and the field. Emphasis will be placed on acquiring the basic skills commonly used to monitor the level of sport performance, sporting activity and immediately after. Students will be continuously filling in prepared working papers focusing on the chosen topic.
Not required.
Prerequisites
A basic overview of the construction and functioning of the human body.

Assessment methods and criteria
unspecified
Active participation in seminars and fulfillment of assigned tasks on the worksheets. Preparation and presentation of a paper on a chosen topic.
