COMPUTER APPLICATIONS IN KINESIOLOCY 

D. Goodman 

Kinesiology Ias is intended as an introduction to computing applications of 

particular interest, but not limited to students of Kinesiology. While no 

prior computing experience is required, access to a computer is a necessity. 

It is anticipated that information garnered in this course will be helpful 

to those wanting to use their computer in further studies. Students who 

wish to develop programming skills are advised to take CMPT 103. 

TOPICS: 

(1)  Introduction 

(2)

Operating systems and programming languages 

(3)

Computer simulations (computers in physiology) 

.

(4)

Computer aided instruction (computers in Kinanthropometry) 

(5)

(6)

(14) 

Sport analysis 

Lectures will be supplemented by lab time during which the student will work on 

projects designed to reinforce/expand lecture material. 

?

Weekly assignments 

will require use of the computer at times other than the regularly scheduled 

•

lab times. ? 

This might well create some scheduling nightmares (be prepared 

and tolerant).

Neuranuscular Anatomy 

Calendar Description of Course: This course explores human neuranuscular anatomy 

using a lecture format supplemented by course readings, an anatomy atlas and 

• tutorials which are presented in an interactive fashion via the MacIntosh 

computer laboratory on campus. A strong grounding will be given in neuroanatany 

with additional emphasis on the limb musculature and its innervation.

Objectives of the Course 

To supplement our students' background in anatomy with particular reference .to 

the anatomy of the nervous system, which must necessarily be covered, only 

briefly in the one-semester course KIN. 326, but which nonetheless is of clear 

intrinsic interest to kinesiologists and of special reference to electives 

offered in neurophysiology as well as to KIN. 306.

Kin. 203-3 (Computer Applications in Kinesiology) is being 

proposed as a new course for today's meeting of SCTJS. If 

the course is approved, it is requested that permission be 

given to offer this course in 1987-1. Otherwise it will 

have to be offered as Kin. 421-3 as a special topic course. 

We do not wish that upper division credits be given to a 

course which is being proposed as a lower division course. 

Hence the request for the waver.
