Abstract

The article discusses the integration of surface electromyography (sEMG) technology into physical therapy education within the STEM framework. It highlights the benefits of incorporating sEMG technology in enhancing students' understanding of muscle function and control strategies. The article also addresses the challenges in implementing sEMG technology in educational settings, such as cost constraints and the need for technical expertise. Recommendations include interdisciplinary collaboration, innovative teaching methods, and the development of cost-effective alternatives to facilitate the integration of sEMG technology in physical therapy education.
