Prentice</p><p>COURSE OBJECTIVES & OUTLINE 1. The student will gain general knowledge of the sports medicine arena and the specialties that are involved - including career paths that will enable them to make a choice in job professions. 2. The student will gain basic CPR & First Aid skills. 3. The student will become familiar with various body systems including terminology, functions, disorders and injuries.</p><p>ATTENDANCE The student is expected to attend each class session. If the student knows that they will be unable to attend class, please inform the instructor ahead of time. Work that is missed during a prior arranged absence is still due on the predetermined due date. a. Excused absences: on the 10th absence you will lose credit with an "F" grade. You may appeal for extenuating circumstances. b. Unexcused absences: you lose credit with 3 unexcused absences. You will lose 10 participation points per day absent. Lunchroom duty will be assigned. c. Tardies: you get 3 tardies per year and then you will be assigned lunch duty. </p><p>GRADING POLICIES Too many absences and not doing your homework will guarantee you a failing grade! So make it easy on yourself: show up and do your homework!!! **I encourage you to work together on homework assignments, as this can be a very beneficial way to learn the anatomy and functions of the human body. However, cheating on tests will NOT be tolerated and will be an automatic "0" on that test! Homework assignments and group assignments are due on the date given and no later.</p><p>A 94-100% C 74-76% Tests 40% A- 90-93% C- 70-73% Homework 40% B + 87-89% D+ 67-69% Quizzes 10% B 84-86% D 64-66% Participation 10% B- 80-83% F 0-59% C+ 77-79% </p><p>*Opportunity for points can change at any time – with the addition of quizzes, assignments and tests 1) HISTORY OF ATHLETIC MEDICINE F) Prophylactic Braces A) Athletic Trainers 1) Orthoplast B) Physicians 2) Foam/Felt C) Coaches 3) Orthogel D) The Umbrella term 4) Thermoplast 5) Tape 2) TRAINING ROOMS 6) Moleskin A) Equipment B) Philosophy 7) PREVENTION -- STRENGTH & C) What really happens CONDITIONING A) Warm-up 3) INSURANCE B) Flexibility A) Terms C) Strength & Aerobic Activity B) Why? 1) Terms C) Physicals 2) Seasons to work in 3) Cycles of Strength 4) BASIC MEDICAL TERMONOLOGY and 4) Types of work-outs TERMS (MECHANISM, D) Cool Down CHARACTERISTICS, CLASSIFICATIONS) E) Injuries A) Anatomical position 1) Minor B) Directional 2) Major C) Planes D) Movements 8) PSYCHOLOGY E) Sides A) 5 Stages F) Types of Injuries B) Why?
