KINE 3200U – Integrated Topics in Active Aging


This course is designed to prepare students to understand the interaction between an active lifestyle and biopsychosocial components of aging. A particular emphasis will be placed on movement behaviours accumulated across the 24 hours, the patterns of these movement behaviours, methods for collecting information on movement behaviours, and sex/gender differences in movement behaviours. Furthermore, students will learn about the association between active aging and relevant topics such as age-friendly communities, social isolation and mental health. Students will also be provided with experiential learning opportunities through local partners such as the Oshawa Seniors Community Centre. Finally, students will develop the ability to critically appraise active aging research.
