This course offers an in-depth exploration of the voluntary control of limb movements, focusing on principles and theories of human motor control. Students will understand the interactions between sensory and motor systems and the neural pathways involved in goal-directed behaviours. Through critical analysis of research and hands-on activities, students will gain insights into sensory integration, motor planning, motor learning and motor control. This knowledge will be valuable for careers in kinesiology, neuroscience, physical therapy, and sports science.
