C.I. STRUTTURA E FUNZIONI DEL SISTEMA NERVOSO E PSICOLOGIA FISIOLOGICA

Module STRUTTURA E FUNZIONI DEL SISTEMA NERVOSO

For the purposes of the assessment, the teacher will take into account:

Knowledge and understanding: Knowing how to describe the morphological organization of the nervous system and its function.

Applied knowledge and understanding: Acquisition of knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of sensory and motor systems.

Autonomy of judgment: Ability to synthesize and compare the anatomo-physiological bases of the main systems (eg visual, motor, auditory) in the healthy population and in atypical populations.

Communication skills: Ability to communicate the contents learned during the course with a personal style and with appropriate terminology.

Ability to learn: Ability to understand, analyze and process the contents of the basic texts of physiological anatomy, in order to be able to undertake subsequent in-depth studies independently.
