This document outlines the key topics and concepts covered in a basic kinematics course, including: I) an introduction to the course, II) biomechanical concepts related to human movement, III) anatomical concepts, and IV) applications. The biomechanical concepts section focuses on basic kinematic concepts such as describing motion using variables like time, position, displacement, velocity, and acceleration. It also discusses reference systems for describing the motion of body segments and guidelines for precisely documenting human and joint motion. The overall summary is that the course introduces students to the terminology, variables, and methods used to quantitatively describe and analyze the spatial and temporal characteristics of human and body segment motion.
