Intended learning outcomes

Provide the student with basic knowledge and concepts about stature, its history, methods of diagnosis, and some important rules for stature still, and shed light on the spine as an important part that is commonly affected by deviations, so it must be highlighted anatomically and then stature. Providing the student with the skill of dealing with deviations that he may deal with in the future in his field of specialization, such as dealing with students in the school who may suffer deviations and are treated unfairly as normal people, but with awareness of deviations, it is easy to discover them and the possibility of limiting them and dealing with them or referring them to a physiotherapist if necessary.The subject of texture in all its divisions contributes to the students to identify deviations in a specific way to deal with them by identifying the shortcomings and symptoms that must reach the stage of recognition and full awareness of them and to define the plan and what degree the deviation has reached and to give an organized program linked to each degree of deviation and the special program with it and others.
