Consolidate notions on cardiovascular training, to increase muscle strength, on joint mobility, in order to be able to select the type of physical exercise most suitable for the individual. Learn the tools to structure a physical activity plan and specific evaluation tests for the population under consideration. Develop work plans based on the objectives to be achieved, the needs and abilities of the individual.

Intermediate laboratory/project exam and final written and / or oral exam.

The final assessment consists of a written and an oral exam that the student can take in one of the exam sessions scheduled in the calendar. Ongoing assessments are planned in order to monitor the effectiveness of the learning and teaching processes. The final assessment and the learning assessments may also be carried out remotely, should conditions require it. The exam allows verification of: i) the level of general knowledge and understanding of the subject; ii) the ability to apply such knowledge to solve specific problems and to develop autonomy of judgment; iii) clarity of exposition; iv) proper use of medical-scientific language. 

Grade 29–30 cum laude: the student has an in-depth knowledge of the required topics, is able to promptly and correctly integrate and critically analyze the situations presented, independently solving even highly complex problems; has excellent communication skills and masters medical-scientific language. 

Grade 26–28: the student has a good knowledge of the required topics, is able to integrate and critically and coherently analyze the situations presented, is able to solve fairly independently complex problems, and presents the topics clearly using appropriate medical-scientific language. 

Grade 22–25: the student has a fair knowledge of the required topics, although limited to the main subjects; is able to integrate and critically analyze the situations presented, though not always coherently, and presents the topics fairly clearly with a reasonable command of language. 

Grade 18–21: the student has the minimum knowledge of the required topics, has a modest ability to integrate and critically analyze the situations presented, and presents the topics in a sufficiently clear manner, although language proficiency is poorly developed. 

Exam not passed: the student does not possess the minimum required knowledge of the main contents of the course. The ability to use specific language is very limited or absent, and the student is not able to independently apply the acquired knowledge.

Verification of learning can also be carried out electronically, if the conditions require it.

Information for students with disabilities and / or SLD: To guarantee equal opportunities and in compliance with the laws in force, interested students can ask for a personal interview in order to plan any compensatory and / or dispensatory measures, based on the teaching objectives and specifications needs. It is also possible to contact the CInAP contact person (Center for Active and Participatory Integration - Services for Disabilities and / or SLD) of the department.
