Problem Based Learning in Exercise Science

This course is intended to supply students with the appropriate knowledge and skills regarding critical thinking and problem-solving.  Students are expected to utilize resources and knowledge gained in the first three years of the program as it relates to real-life scenarios.  Students will be responsible for meeting specific objectives related to the cases as well as developing their own objectives they deem relevant.  The primary goal will be to look at the “whole person” and not just the problem itself.  Students should complete the course feeling confident they have performed an extensive review of key concepts and points from previous classes and feel that they could approach a real-life scenario dealing with the same issues.
