This loose-leaf format of Applied Biomechanics Laboratory Manual
With HKPropel Online Video offers students a convenient and easy way to
complete and submit laboratory assignments to their instructor in the
classroom.
Applied Biomechanics Laboratory Manual With HKPropel Online Video
provides guided opportunities for students to connect their conceptual
understanding of biomechanics to practical applications. As readers
progress through 13 easy-to-follow experiential-based learning labs,
they will gain insight into how these mechanical principles relate to
areas such as sport performance, athletic injury, ergonomics, and
rehabilitation. This manual engages students with full-color images as
well as visual aids. It is an ideal primary or supplemental text for any
biomechanics and kinesiology curriculum.
Applied Biomechanics Laboratory Manual comprises 13 laboratory
chapters that offer over 30 lab activities. Each laboratory chapter
provides at least one complete lesson, including objectives, key terms,
and introductory content that set the stage for learning. Each lab
activity is broken down into step-by-step procedures, providing guidance
for those new to lab settings so that they may complete the process with
confidence. Related online learning tools delivered through HKPropel
include digital versions of the forms found in the book as well as
online video clips that simulate the experience of performing many of
the lab activities.
The text is organized in a logical progression that builds on the
knowledge students acquire as they advance. Written by instructors with
a variety of teaching experiences in the field of biomechanics, the
multiple lab activities are designed so they can be completed in any
educational setting. Each lab activity begins with a recommended
equipment list to facilitate lesson preparation. A list of recommended
data analysis software tools is provided in some equipment lists. For
educational settings where no data analysis software is available, data
is provided so students can complete the laboratory reports for the lab
activity.
Applied Biomechanics Laboratory Manual gives students an opportunity
to observe the principles of biomechanics in action. The manual serves
as a high-quality resource for students to learn how to perform basic
laboratory testing procedures used in assessing human performance and
body mechanics.
