Subject outline
This subject will focus on human performance. Attention will be paid to both lifespan and activity-dependent changes to the nervous system and the impact these have on function. The lifespan aspects will have the most emphasis so that students are able to understand the expected stages of development from conception to adulthood. The World Health Organisation International Classification of Function, Disability and Health (WHO ICF) will be used to provide a framework that acknowledges the wide variation in human functioning
