Information About the Schedule

Lecture Tests. Here is a summary of the four test dates:

MonTuesday, February 69, Unit I – 8:305:30 p.m., Room 226 in Fulmer Hall

MonTuesday, March 59, Unit II – 8:305:30 p.m., Room 226 in Fulmer Hall

MonTuesday, April 913, Unit III – 8:35:30 p.m., Room 226 in Fulmer Hall

FriFriday, May 47, Unit IV – 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. (morning), in our lLecture rRoom in , WebsterG3 Heald Hall

Laboratory Tests: The four laboratory tests will be held during your regular scheduled lab period, in Morrill Hall, Room 8, during weeks 4, 8, 12, and 15.

Lab Syllabus: Although this course syllabus includes the lab schedule, you will also receive a LAB SYLLABUS that gives more details about the lab part of this course.

Textbooks

1) Marieb, E., Wilhelm, P. and Mallatt, J., Wilhelm, P., Human Anatomy, SixthFifth edition, Pearson/Benjamin Cummings, 201108.

2) Conley, D., Human Anatomy The Course Laboratory Guide, Second edition, Kendall/Hunt Publishing Co. by D. Conley , 2009.

3) Biology 315 Lecture Notes, a soft-cover book by J. Mallatt.

4) Course Lecture Transparencies, xeroxed in a booklet at the Bookie and at Crimson and Gray.

5) (Optional) Abrahams, P. H., and others, McMinn’s Color Atlas of Human Anatomy, Mosby-Wolfe.

NOTE: The optional text is only for those students who have special interests in the subject or who are having trouble in certain areas covered by the optional book.

Course Information

Goals: The goal of this course is to teach you a wide range of information on normal human anatomy, not just at the gross level, but also at the level of cells and tissues, where most physiological and disease processes occur. Some clinical information is given in lecture, some each week in lab, and there are special clinical sections in your main text (Marieb, Mallatt, and Wilhelm, and Mallatt) and in lab computer sessions. Embryology is covered for two reasons: First, seeing the organs in their earliest and most simple form often allows them to be most easily understood; second, a basic knowledge of embryology is essential for understanding birth defects.

Lecture notes: Purchase of course lecture notes (“Biology 315 Lecture Notes”) is required. These notes have been prepared under the instructors’ supervision and are very thorough. However, these notes should not serve as an excuse to miss lecture. Some material emphasized in class may not appear in the notes. In fact, some questions on the exams ask you to describe demonstrations or examples given in lecture!

It is recommended that even though you'll have professional lecture notes you still should take some notes during lecture. Later, you can compare your notes with the lecture notes, and this will prove to be a study aid.

Grading: There will be four lecture exams and four laboratory exams. Each test counts 1/8 of your final grade. Overall, lab and lecture each count half toward the final grade. HOWEVER, you must pass both lecture and lab, each with at least a 60% average, to pass the course.

Grade scale for every test, and for final course grade: A: 90 - 100%

B: 80 - 89%

C: 70 - 79%

D: 60 - 69%

"Plusses" and "minuses" will be given for your final grade, and will cover approximately 2 points at the tops and bottoms of these

ranges. For example, 80 and 81% = B-. There is no grading on the curve in this course. Grades are based only on test scores (no outside work, for example, to bring up your grade), and early tests are weighted the same as later tests (so no extra weight is given for “improvement” throughout the semester). Grading is based on achievement, not on effort.

Pregnancy and disabilities. Students with disabilities that affect learning should contact Dr. Mallatt immediately so we can work to accommodate your needs. Accommodating pregnant students is more complicated, due to laboratory chemicals, and may require signed statements from physicians. Pregnant students should contact Dr. Mallatt immediately for our pregnancy policy.

Advice. Because this is such a detailed and difficult class, we advise students to study hard, and to make time to come to our evening lab-study sessions (“open labs”: see your lab syllabus). Students who live far from Pullman, or otherwise have difficulties attending this class, often have trouble achieving a good grade.

Rules.: All effort will be made to treat students fairly, and to help them when problems arise. However, for the sake of fairness to all, certain rules must be enforced:

1) Any student who misses a test without previously arranging it with Dr. Mallatt will automatically receive a zero for that test. Excuses require proof in advance (e.g., a note from a doctor). The only legitimate excuses are illness and death of a close family member.

2) Only one try is allowed per test (no re-takes). For those who legitimately miss an exam, permission to take a make-up test should be arranged with the instructor in advance. ALL MAKEUPS FOR ALL MISSED LECTURE EXAMS WILL BE HELD ON SAT. APRIL 214 AT 10:00 A.M. IN ROOM 221 HEALD. Students who miss more than one exam are usually asked to drop the course.

3) In the past, some students have asked for a grade of 'I' just to avoid a failing grade in the course. This is not an acceptable reason for receiving an incomplete.

We must be fairly rigid on exam times and on grading because this class contains so many students. However, we listen to serious, legitimate problems.

Note on Tests: Lab tests will involve the identification of structures from cadavers, calling for one or two word answers.

Lecture tests will be multiple choice.

Cheating: We take cheating seriously and follow University policy closely, so do not cheat (by looking at another person’s test, for example).
