Course Description: ANATOMY 1 is an intensive lecture and laboratory course, which includes the study of cells, tissues, and organs of the human body. The lectures correspond closely with the laboratory exercises providing the student with various tools to learn about many organ systems: integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. Use of the microscope and dissection of cat highlight this course.

Prerequisite: college-level biology course with laboratory. Biology 3or 6 Advisory: English 28

Course Objectives: Students should gain basic knowledge and learn key principles in Human Anatomy, and should recognize the unique role of anatomy in clinical settings. The student will learn the terminology and fundamental concepts of basic Human Anatomy, and work as a member of a laboratory team. This anatomy course serve students in different majors in order to be successful in future academic and professional endeavors. Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to identify and describe the basic structures of the human body through concepts of organ and system structure in relation to its clinical implication, and learn the role of human anatomy in health and disease.

Teaching Methods: I will lecture most of the time. I am open to questions during lectures. There will be occasional group discussion and study sessions for problem solving and critical thinking. My goal is to insure instruction that provides systematic development of your academic skills to meet high academic standards. Comprehensive instructional design to accommodate the different needs will be used, including a variety of teaching techniques, strategies and learning methods. “…Teachers lead students to the threshold of their own mind..”

Office Hours: M, and W at 5:20-8:30 p.m. Phone: 818-833-3411 Cubicle: 26 E-mail: [email protected] Web Page: http://www.lamission.edu/lifesciences I will be available during my office hours to discuss any of your concerns and answer your questions about course content or requirements. You may also leave a telephone message for me at any time, or send me E-mail, and I will get back to you ASAP!

Evaluation Methods: I assume that you want to do well on exams and you want to understand and enjoy this Human Anatomy course. In order to get the most out of it, please plan to spend enough time studying. You are expected to read assigned material in advance of the lecture in which the material will be discussed. Evaluation methods may include standardized tests, short essay tests, quizzes, and a comprehensive final examination. Multiple Choice, True-False, and Matching questions will be used for midterm and final exams. A schedule of lectures and exams is attached. I encourage taking notes during my lectures, and I recommend using the Study Guide and CD-ROM that accompany the textbook to prepare for your exams. The Textbook/Lab Manual is a primary source of information to complement my presentations and to reinforce the content of the lectures and the labs. Attendance is Mandatory!! If you miss a class, you are responsible of obtaining lecture notes and assignments from another student in the class. Lecture Grades: Midterm exams & Quizzes. 200 points Final exam. “comprehensive and inclusive” 100 points

Each midterm exam will cover one part the course as discussed in the class and the textbook. The final examination is inclusive! Comprehensive! Covering the entire course. Exams are NOT made-up. You must have a very valid excuse to miss an exam. Your make-up exam will be different than the test given for the class. Your make-up exam would be an Essay type of exam or an Oral exam. Lab Grades: Quizzes and Lab Practical Exams 125 points Laboratory Review sheets & participation 75 points

Students are required to complete the REVIEW SHEETS (RS pages) in the back of the LAB MANUAL for all laboratory exercises assigned, as well as, other assignments given during the lab session. Review Sheets must be returned at the beginning of the next scheduled laboratory meeting. NO MAKE-UP for quizzes, midterm exams, final exam, lab practical exams or lab quizzes!!!

Final Grade: The final grade is based on the percentage of the total number of points earned in the course (400 points). The grade range is usually as follows:

A 90-100% B 80-89% C 70-79% D 60-69% F less than 60%

Course Withdrawal Policy: Non-attendance does NOT constitute withdrawal. Exclusions after the fourth week of instruction should be expected ONLY for students who didn’t attend class and missed 6 hours or more in either the lecture or the lab, or both. Withdrawals are NOT permitted during the final weeks. It is the student responsibility to be aware of the COLLEGE POLICIES and submit proper documentation to DROP the class.
