With science changing so quickly around us,
it's hard to keep the facts straight about how to stay healthy.
In fact, more and more people are talking
about and concerned about their health these days,
especially when it comes to exercise.
So we've created this course to help you understand how
physical therapy and exercise can play a big role in managing your health.
In this course, we have
six interactive self-guided modules
for you to work through that contain recorded to speakers,
videos, readings, and activities for you to complete.
So, take some time to listen to the recordings
carefully and to complete each reading and activity.
Because this course focuses on helping you participate in exercise,
we really want you to reflect on your own experiences with exercise or think
of someone you know who might have one of
the conditions or diseases that we'll be talking about.
Each module is set up in the same way.
First, it's going to be a little video by one of us to coach you through the module.
Then, there's a prerecorded lecture.
There will be some additional learning materials for you to review.
Then, at the end of each module,
you'll have a chance to think back on what you've read,
seen, and heard, and apply to your own situation.
If you want to get a certificate for this course,
you'll have to complete the multiple choice questions at
the end and score at least 60 percent for every module.
You'll also have to do several small projects and assignments
throughout that will contribute to
your capstone projects to enable you to get the certificate.
It's great having you in this course.
We hope you really enjoy learning about physical therapy and exercise.
