Learning outcomes
The aim of the study-unit is to gain knowledge about the laws of motor characteristics, skills and abilities in physical culture and sports, while understanding the causes of their development in otogenesis. Students will be able to solve empirical research on issues of physical culture and sport after completion, evaluate the results of statistical methods in a processing of their seminar papers and thesis.
Student is able to solve questions connected with issue of motor attributes, skills and abilities in physical culture and sports. He understands causes and relatedness in human ontogenesis. He is able to solve empirical research from the area of PE and sports, evaluate results with statistical methods when dealing with seminary, diploma and other works. .
Prerequisites
Is a prerequisite for completion of the course " Movement skills develpoment and regeneration" to the content of the theory of movement skills the subject of "antropomotorika" builds.

Assessment methods and criteria
unspecified
a) a clear understanding on the exercise of the presented topics, student is prepared by lectures or basic literature b) continuous knowledge of procedures of mathematical statistics to plan seminars c) processing seminar task
