Behold, the sad state of college "learning" today, where teachers with room temperature IQs educate by creating meaningless assignments with little or no educational value. Students are asked to compare and contrast "strength" with the meaning of "dynamic mobility" (not to be confused with regular mobility), and we are to describe how "flexibility" is similar and/or different from "how the vibrations of the sensations are similar and different."
Additionally, during class students watch videos like this and write two pages on how they felt about the music in the background. Students pay $22,198 per year for classes like this (non-resident).
HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT:
The second reading is on the five sensations of movement: flexibility, agility, mobility, stability, strength (FAMSS). Write how the five sensations are similar and/or are different with the following characteristics. For this part of the assignment, if it is easier for you to show the similarities and differences in table format rather than in writing format, be do so!
o energy direction
o physical feeling
o how the sensations are nurtured
o how the sensations are maintained
o how the vibrations of the sensations are similar and different
o how each sensation feels
o the meaning of dynamic flexibility, dynamic agility, dynamic mobility, dynamic stability, dynamic strength
o how the physical signs of losing each sensation are similar and/or are different
o how the signs of losing each sensation are similar and/or are different
