This course will provide an introduction to human motor control, learning, and development. Motor control will be examined through the concepts, theories, and applications of experimental neuroscience. Motor learning will be explored using theoretical and conceptual application of behavioural research. Motor development will also be introduced and examined across the lifespan. In addition, application to special populations, including clinical and high performance, will be integrated throughout. Weekly hours: 3 Lecture hours and 2 Practicum/Lab hoursPrerequisite(s): KIN 121 and 122; STAT 245 or PLSC 214 or PSY 233.
