Using interactive co-studying and pear-teaching the link between anatomical localisations and clinical situations will be studied based on mechanistic reasoning.

the focus of this course is on the upper quadrant.

 

Additional info

Based on a good basic knowledge of musculoskeletal anatomy this course intends to deepen this knowledge and to link this knowledge to clinical situations within the musculoskeletal field; blended learning techniques, including pear-teaching and interactive for a will be applied in this course to stimulate active and participating learning.
