Course objectives
Student is able to nominate anatomical structures of passive and active locomotor systems after lectures of the anatomy of locomotor system I. Student is able to explain the function of bones formations, movements of joints and muscles groups. Student will be able to use obtained theoretical and practical knowledge of locomotor units in the next study of normal anatomy. Student should be able to define mechanical system in joints, separate muscles and groups of muscles. Student should be theoretically prepared for consecutive study in the second term after lectures of the first semester. Student should be able to evaluate the normal stage of the locomotor system from the pathological one.
Learning outcomes
The student should be able:
- to identify all significant skeleton structures, parts of the joints,
- deduce all movements in the joints and recognize all the muscles.
- be orientated on X-rays.

Teaching methods
To achieve the required knowledge of locomotor system I it is necessary to pass a theoretical preparation during the lessons and also individual study of student texts and the anatomical atlases. In practical courses students should verify their theoretical knowledge on anatomical models and human bones, joints and muscles. During individual studies students can borrow osteological preparations from the collections of the Anatomical department or study locomotor system on the preparations in the Anatomical museum. Also they can study locomotor system in the x-ray study room and use programmes with anatomy subjects in PC study room. Of course during the whole term can students consult difficult parts of anatomy with their lecturers.
Assessment methods
Required level of knowledge is being continuously verified by short written tests and by evaluation of practical knowledge of particulate anatomical formations on preparations of human body in practical lessons. Student is evaluated for active presence in lessons by credits in the end of each term. To gain credit is necessary 95% presence at seminars.
