(Meda 55, Summer 2020, Haydee Martinez-Munoz) I'm glad my A&P professor recommended these videos. They've helped me so much in my first semester of the Health Information Technology Program. I recommend them to other Allied health students. It's a great tool and resource. If you want to learn smoothly and easily of the Movement terminology I highly recommend you watch this video he explains it very clearly. I recently had an Exam on this terminology and I passed my Exam, thank you, professor.
This video was a greater refresher for the TEAS exam that I plan to re-take sometime in the summer. These terms are so easy to inversely confuse with each other. I love how you demonstrated each movement term to get a visual idea of all the terminology! Thank you!
The fact that you used your own body as a demonstration allowed me to visually understand the concept as well. You truly care about us viewers being able to grasp the information and it clearly shown. I also would like to mention that I always misunderstood what abduction and adduction does. I learned that abduction goes away from the body and adduction is coming closer to the body. This was very helpful.
These terminologies were a part of a chapter exam I did, it was very helpful to watch the video before reading and writing the chapter notes. Very informational and broken down into sections to make it easier to understand.
Bio 237 fall 2019: As a trainer, I try to explain these concepts to clients in ways they will understand without getting too detailed as to not confuse them. I like the way you've broken them down in to simple enough vocabulary to explain.
For this video I think its super helpful that you actually demonstrate the movements of these terms. When I took anatomy the most helpful thing for me was to visually see the motions in actions to put terms to them.
This video had a lot of helpful information about movement terminology. I learned about Flexion which decreases the angle between the bones and extension which increases the angel between the bones. Abduction and abduction, inversion and eversion, and more. I had these info in the book but you explained them with a lot of detail and I liked how you did a movement for some of the words, it helped remember them more. Thank you!
Straight to the point and comprehensible. Thanks for the examples of motion, it would have been nice to see your whole body for adduction and abduction but I work out and use the hip abductors/adductor machines frequently so I know the movements.
I learned movement terminology before on GE class, but I always confuse with abduction and adduction. However, I cleared now thanks to professor's explain by using his own body. Very informative!
Very great learning tool, if you are a more visual learner this video is very helpful. You can connect the dots with an easy explanation and a real life example. The rotation and cirumduction were vocabulary words I struggled to remember. After watching the video I think of the professor moving his arm in a CIRCLE "circumduction".
movement terminology when talking about body movements can be a lot of information. This video along with the notes helps to get a visual learner like myself to understand!
Very instructive video. I've learned about movement terminology. You covered the most useable words for movement’s position of muscles like Flexion (decrease angles between two bones of joint) and Extension (the relaxation of bones) and many others. I really like you use different colors to separate the words. You also use body movement to describe more, that makes me feel that I am in real class. Thanks for your great work.
This video has a lot of information but its very useful. Proving examples and using different colors are extremely helpful for me to understand the different type of movement.
Thank you, Professor Givon for this video. I understand the different types of movements. Your examples really helped with the terminology being given on the board. I've never heard of these movement terminology till now and I'm very interested in learning more about it.
Learning these terms was one of my favorite parts of anatomy class. Its made me notice how often these terms are mixed up in media or even daily life / at the gym (etc).
its more clear now the joint movements concept, I had back surgery 2 years ago still unable to perform DORSIFLEXION which make my life little frustrated. however, this lecture gave me more knowledge of the joint movements.
I really liked this video. It helped me refresh on the movements I learned in Anatomy. I liked how you explained the movements and then showed how each movement looked like.
Great video! I learned about movement terminology in this video. For starters, flexion is a term used to describe when the muscle contracts, however, extension is used to describe the relaxation of the bone. I also learned a little about abduction and adduction, this explains which way my limbs are moving. Lastly, I learned about rotation and circulation. Thank you for making these terms much easier to learn and remember!
I enjoyed your video on the terminology of movements. I liked how with each introduction of each, you gave and example. Very easy to understand when a example is given.
MEDA 115 Spring 2021: This refreshes me back to learning about the skeletal/muscular system in MEDA 55. I believe this is the first time I’ve learned about elevation/depression but otherwise, this video is informative.
This video gave me a better understanding of the terminology for our body movements, it's helping me remember these terms. what I found most interesting about this video was the difference between abduction and adduction
MEDA 55. -2020 this video is exactly like my notes very easy to understand and simple. you keep it short yet while giving us an understanding of the terminology . keeping it very visually and color coordinated. thanks really am learning different muscle movements .
Such great review! Its crazy how relevant these terms are in every day life- especially when working out! Thanks for helping me better understand the correct terms to describe body movement!
This video really helped differentiate which terms are appropriate to use in regards to different areas of the body and visually seeing the difference in these movements with the terms written down definitely helps as I am a visual learner!
thank you for clarifying the difference between rotation and circumduction. Visual examples really helped understand how the different movements occur.
I’ve always remembered ADDuction as adding to the midline and ABduction as subtracted or taken away from the midline. Definitely helped in my biomechanics class! Supination position always you to hold a hand full of soup :)
I like the fact that you have made a video specifically for the terminology of movement, because before watching this video. I thought the video was just going to be about the term "movement" and how it applies to certain parts of the body.
This video was very informative, what I found most interesting of this video was the difference between abduction and adduction and how you actually explained it by movement of your body.
Thanks for changing up the colors, it was a nice touch good distinction in pairing the opposite action or different types. This video is a really simple tool to review the motions or movements. watching this video really reminds me I should really review. my retention is really bad. not sure if inversion and everions was included in the material. Yay back to studying !
Hey Professor, this video locked in my knowledge of what we already learned in class. Understanding movement terminology will help me understand things a lot more during my career.
43017 MEDA 55 Fall 2020: This is amazing and a great refresher. I wish I had your videos when I took my CPT exam. They would have made it so much easier. I use these terms in plans and I had the hardest time remembering adduction and abduction. Now it is second nature.
I remember learning these words during my undergrad courses and Ill always the example for supination as holding a bowl of soup (to help with the anatomical positioning). Great video and solid examples!
MEDA 55 Spring 2020 I sometimes get abduction and adduction confused, so thank you for clarifying the two! And I had do idea that dorsiflexion was when you are on the heel of your foot.
Givon great information! Some feedback is I would actually show the movements while you talk about them. I am also a super visual learner so visually seeing it always helps me. But thanks for listing them all off!
Seeing you perform a few of the movements is helpful to embed it into memory. I also find it helpful that you changed colors for the different word groupings.
When I learned that there were muscles on both sides of joints that make them open and close it changed the way I thought about stretching. I learned that those two muscle groups should not be contracted at the same time to stretch effectively. In order stretch a muscle, the opposite muscle can be flexed so as to relax the muscle on the opposite side of the joint. I think it's called active stretching
What could really help visual learners is panning to the actual movement as you go through the examples of each term in comparison, ie: Extension/Flexion or Adduction/Abduction; coming towards the body, or going away from the body.
Great explanation, very clear and straight to the point. Can one movement have more than one movement terminology? Such as extended your arm away from your body, would that be flexion as well as abduction?
this video was very interesting when learning about the terminology and knowing more about where exactly are muscles are. Also knowing about abduction in which were some parts of our bodies are.
Summer Mesa MEDA 110: This was SUPER helpful on remembering the movement terminology. Adduction and Abduction was always the two I confused but this helped so much!
MEDA 110 Spring 2020: These terms are very useful to know for a future PT like myself! Thanks for making them easy to remember with an example for each one.
Great explanation. If I may suggest, it would be more helpful for the beginners if you will demonstrate the movement like the dorsiflexion and plantarflexion of the ankle. For the circumduction, it will be best to demonstrate using the lower extremity just like how stroke patient ambulates when the patient has extensor synergy in the lower extremity. This is just a suggestion.
Before I watched this video I thought movement terminology was just the action of going from one place to another but didn't realize how complex our bodies can be with the different types of movements. The one that I understood the most was rotation.
Meda 55, Fall 2019 : These vocabs aren't that difficult but it's nice to have someone explaining it to you and it helps going over because I tend to forget some of those.
It is crazy to me how many different terms seem similar but are specific to certain areas of the body or movements away or towards the body. I've heard pronation and supination a lot during my internship at the hospital.
Fall 2021 - MEDA 110 (71668 - online) Having you physical show us movement terminology and explaining it in simpler terms really helps when you're reading a text book for the most part, i enjoy these videos.
This is one part of anatomy that I have a hard time remembering. There are so many to remember but you color coding them helped. Thanks professor bio 176
