Welcome to Module 2 - Applied Anatomy and Physiology
In this module you will gain technical knowledge of human anatomy, physiology, rehabilitation processes and more as they relate to sport, fitness, recreation, and exercise contexts. You will also be able to apply these concepts through evidence-based practice.

| Learning Outcomes |
- LO2.1 Analyse anatomical and physiological adaptations to sport and exercise across the human lifecycle as an SRE practitioner.
- LO2.2 Develop and apply health and wellness solutions for rehabilitation and injury prevention as an SRE practitioner.
- LO2.3 Analyse the effects of exercise on physiological functions in sport, recreation, and exercise contexts.

| Assessment |
There are three assessment events for this module:
- Assessment 1: Written short answer exam – A & P Through the lifecycle
- Assessment 2: Case study written report – Rehabilitation and injury prevention
- Assessment 3: Research case study report – Acute and chronic effects of exercise

Your online and self-directed learning has been designed to supplement your face-to-face study. For that reason, it is important you follow the online learning schedule below. Your online lessons are typically structured in two parts. The first part will be used to recap and add to the key content covered in your face-to-face classes that week (SDL). The second part will cover new theory learning for the current topic or introduce theory for next week's topic. It is recommended that you structure your online learning as follows. Part 1 – to be completed throughout the week. It is best to start this following day 2 of face-to-face learning); and Part 2 – to be completed before next week's first face-to-face lesson (it is best to start this following day 4 of face-to-face learning).
| Week 1 |
Topics:
- PART 1 – Recap of anatomical terminology. New learning: the skeletal system (bones). [Modules 2.1.1 – 2.2.5]
