CSU East Bay Kinesiology Department - Myth Busters

Organization Description

Kinesiology is a unique academic discipline. The core subjects that make up kinesiology cover the breadth of academic disciplines including anatomy, biomechanics, biochemistry, history, sociology, psychology, physiology, and philosophy. Kinesiology straddles every discipline from the arts to the humanities to the sciences.

Program Information

The “Myth Busters” group is designed to be a first exposure for students to the research process, specifically developing skills to search for, evaluate, synthesize and disseminate information on a “myth” in Kinesiology. The group is building a Fact Checking Organization from the ground up. This work has led to student research projects being published. The literature reviews for Myth Busters are hosted as a project on the Open Science Frameworks website https://osf.io/c82qv/.
