Motor control is a scientific discipline that attempts to answer the basic question of how humans control movement. This discipline is nothing more than an attempt to integrate many other sciences that ask the same question, but that historically have not been related to each other. Psychology, neurophysiology or neurology are examples of sciences that have contributed a great deal of knowledge about the functioning of the nervous system and its role in human movement but which have maintained, until not long ago, a discourse isolated from each other. This does not mean that motor control is the "discipline" that will ultimately resolve all our doubts, but rather that it reflects the importance of approaching human movement with a multidisciplinary or, rather, interdisciplinary approach, given that it is the only way to understand how human beings control their movements with intention.
Contingency plan
1. Modifications to the contents
- No changes will be made.
2. Methodologies
*Teaching methodologies that are maintained:
- Guest lecture/keynote speech
- ICT practicals
*Teaching methodologies that are modified:
- Laboratory practices:
- Raw records of practices from previous courses will be used for analysis, obtaining results and subsequent discussion and evaluation through questionnaires posed through ICT.
- The number of practices in which the registration system is the interaction with the PEBL application will be increased.
- Events academic/information
- Clinical test.
3. Mechanisms for personalized attention to students:
- Email: Daily. Used to make queries, request virtual meetings to resolve doubts and send notifications on the development of the subject.
- Moodle: weekly, with scheduled activities and notices through "news".
- MSTeams: 3 weekly sessions to advance in the theoretical content and activities to develop (explanation of practices, procedures, records, analysis and discussion of results). An additional session every two weeks as a mandatory tutoring established by the center, in the schedule of academic activity, to advance in the aspects of theoretical or practical nature that are required (students will be asked to establish the demand for the content of the tutoring).
4. Modifications in the evaluation
- Mixed objetive/subjetive test: 25% (normal basic situation: 40%; it can reach 55% if the methodologies of: scientific and/or informative events and clinical tests are not carried out).
- ICT Practicals: 75% (normal situation: 45%)
*Evaluation observations:
- It corresponds to those raised in the section "evaluation observations" of the guide.
5. Modifications to the bibliography or webgraphy
- No changes will be made. By default, the necessary documents for the development of the subject (mainly, articles, manuals an tutorials) are already incorporated in Moodle.
(*)The teaching guide is the document in which the URV publishes the information about all its courses. It is a public document and cannot be modified. Only in exceptional cases can it be revised by the competent agent or duly revised so that it is in line with current legislation.
