Bodyworks: interactive interdisciplinary online teaching tools for biomechanics and physiology teaching

Remote teaching can be both challenging and motivating. Professors and lecturers have developed innovative strategies to improve students’ education and engage students in synchronous and asynchronous classes. In this Illuminations paper, we describe BodyWorks, online tools to support courses in physiology, motor control, and biomechanics. The tools are interactive and easy to use, have low computer and internet demands, and can be used in many conditions and topics of study. All resources are freely available online in three different languages. We hope our initiative can help professors and students worldwide promote more interactive and engaging motor control and related topics classes for both synchronous and asynchronous formats.
