COURSE DESCRIPTION

Sports Medicine 2 is a full year advanced level course designed for students that have a serious interest in fields such as athletic training, physical therapy, medicine, personal training/fitness, nursing, exercise physiology, kinesiology, nutrition,…

This class is going to be predominantly Hands On and Oral/Practical Exams.  There will be few power point lectures, the students will be required to participate daily if they want to learn the information. The student will learn, practice and then take an oral and practical exam. There will be very few if any written tests in this class. I want the student to gain confidence in themselves, their skills and knowledge and then be able to verbally display their knowledge.

 There will be 3 field trips, 2 to Grand Canyon’s Cadaver Lab and 1 to Athlete’s Performance
