The trend of decrease in active lifestyle observed in the pediatric population nowadays raises concern considering the severe consequences this change can have on the developing body’s musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiovascular health. Assessing and addressing postural changes stemming from the sedentary lifestyle can diminish the negative effects. Therefore, it is very important for physiotherapists to learn to distinguish postural fluctuations as early as possible. The purpose of the thesis was to build an online study platform covering the assessment of adolescent pupils’ posture to be used by physiotherapy students at Satakunta University of Applied Sciences as individual study material in Basic movement classes. The theoretical material for the study tool was collected based on the available scientific literature and a student survey on the necessity of such content. The presented information consisted of four sections: the basics of posture and the posture control mechanism, the role of spine and muscle anatomy and function in the biomechanics of posture, changes in the spine’s sagittal posture occurring prior and during the growth spurt period, and sagittal parameters and their implementation into postural analysis. The objective of the thesis was to create a tool that presents information on posture assessment and inferences regarding adolescent posture evaluation in a comprehensive way. Thus, the theoretical material combined with questions and tasks for the readers was presented in an online platform with a discussion section which could be used by the university’s teachers and students.
