COURSE DESCRIPTION

This course provides a detailed study of the structure and function of the human peripheral and central nervous system, including vascular components and the special senses. Lectures will also be supplemented by 3-4 laboratory sessions during which anatomical features of the brain, brainstem and spinal cord will be studied. Students are expected to develop a solid foundation of the knowledge and skills of nervous systems as a background to their clinical practice.

If you are going to be absent, contact Dr. Daly prior to the absence Cheating and plagiarism will NOT be tolerated Students are not allowed food or drink during exams and will NOT be excused during exams

LOCATION / COURSE TIMES Laboratory: Multipurpose / Cadaver Lab (Alfond 119/219) Lecture: 1:00 – 3:15pm Blewett 006 on Biddeford campus, but within timeframe of lecture sessions GRADING POLICY

Attendance to all lecture and laboratory sessions is REQUIRED.

There will be both written / lecture and practical examinations in this course. There will be 4 exams in the lecture portion of this course (3 semester exams and 1 final) and 1 lab exam. All exams will be scheduled during class times.

Exam 1 Overview 200 points Exam 2 Sensory / Motor 200 points Exam 3 Cranial Nerves 200 points Exam 4 Cortex 200 points Practical 200 points

Total 1000 points

The final grade for the course will be submitted as A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D or F based upon the average of the examinations and using the criteria listed below.

Grading Scale: 100 – 93.4% = A 79.4 – 76.3% = C+ 93.3 – 89.9% = A- 76.2 – 72.9% = C 89.8 – 86.5% = B+ 72.8 – 69.5% = C- 86.4 – 83.1% = B 69.4 – 60.0% = D 83.0 – 79.5% = B- < 59.9% = F

EXAM RETURN

All exams will only be returned during the next scheduled class meeting time. It is against the federal student information act to communicate grades in any manner except the most secure, whether it is face-to-face or through the United States Postal Service. No grades will be given via email or over the telephone. Students interested in receiving their final exams need to give the faculty instructor a self-addressed, stamped envelope on the final exam day. Exams will be mailed when grading is completed.
