Course objectives
At the end of this course, students should be able to: - understand and to interpret organism phylogenesis patterns - describe the restructuring of human body since common ancestor of great apes and human - explain the specifics of human organism as well as biological, psychological, cultural and social - understand of human organism as a holistic system - interpret and to illustrate separate periods of human ontogeny - interpret the rules of human growth and development - alert to the dangers of mutagens, teratogens and carcinogens - interpet adaptability and variability of human structure (physical, behavioural, sociocultural) in the past and today.
Learning outcomes
Student: - uses the correct professional anthropological terminology and is able to select concepts, phylogenetic and ontogenetic processes corresponding to the level of primary school pupils - Demonstrates anthropometric measurements of the development and development of the living human body  can use the permanent exhibition of the Anthropos pavilion to teach human phylogeny  defines the laterality of the human body and demonstrates simple examination of the dominance of the motor and sensory organs, identifies the specific needs of left-handed and pupils with crossed laterality - can use knowledge in pedagogical practice on the neurophysiological basis of memory and learning.
Syllabus
  • Lectures:
  • 1. Phylogenesis/ontogenesis concepts, basic relations asserting in anatomic modern human's evolution and in ontogenesis of an individual being. Ernest Haeckel’s basic rule of biogenetics. Outline of H.s.’s phylogenesis – I. 2. Phylogenesis of H.s. – II. Mechanisms asserting in genesis and evolution of species. 3. H.s.’s ontogenesis stages – outline, short characteristics. 4.

  • Practical exercises:
  • 1. Hominizitaion, its phases and etaps, the origin of habitual bipedition, presumption of the origin of human walk. 2. Reconstruction of human body during his fylogenesis: the lower limb, pelvis, spine. Examination of leg arch by plantogram and its importance. 3. Reconstruction of human body during his fylogenesis: the upper limb, trunk, head. 4. Specifics of human spine and examination of its structure and flexibility. 5. Evaluations methods of human growth and development. 6. Somatomethry. 7. Sexual behaviour of men in kontext with apes and other animals, his reproductive strategies, advantages and disadvantages. 8. Prenatal development and child growth to 4 years. 9. Puberty, its progress and importance. Changes of human organism in connection with ageing. 10. Lateralite, requirements of left-handed child. Practical examination of lateralite of limbs and sensory organs. 11. Didactics task and its presentation in Pavilon Anthropos. 12. Neurophyziological bases of memorizing and learning.
