Nath, and Edwin F.Bartholomew. 2015. Fundamentals of Anatomy & Physiology, TenthEdition.Access to My A&P (Pearson)COURSE DESCRIPTIONBIOL 206 Human Anatomy and Physiology (4 credits: 3 one-hour lectures and 1 three-hour laboratory weekly).An introductory lecture/laboratory course emphasizing the important concepts, terminology, and interrelationships of human structure and function. Introductory concepts as well as the skin, nervous, and musculoskeletal systems are presented. BIOL 206 is taught in the fall and is followed in the spring by BIOL 207 which emphasizes study of the body systems not covered in BIOL 206: endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive. BIOL 206 is a prerequisite for BIOL 207. (LAB)COURSE OBJECTIVES/PURPOSEFollowing an introduction to some general features of anatomy and physiology, we will proceed in a hierarchical fashion from atoms and molecules to cells and tissues, and then to organs and organ systems. Organ systems studied fall semester include the integument, skeleto-muscular and nervous (including special senses). Along the way you will gain a working knowledge of anatomy, terminology, important concepts in physiology, as well as insight into the complex interdependence of structure and function in the human body. LEARNING OUTCOMESAt the completion of this course you will be able to demonstrate: 1.knowledge of the structure and function of atoms, molecules, organelles, cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems of the human body including skin, nervous, and musculoskeletal systems 2.basic knowledge of the complex interdependence of structure and function in the human body 3.knowledge of medical terminology associated with the topics covered in the course 4.dissection, microscopy and computer skills 5.the ability to locate and recognize gross and microscopic body structures and to understand the function of these structures OUTCOMES ASSESSMENT/EVALUATIONThe final grade will be determined by a point system (All the assessments listed below are approximate and may be changed at any time):Pre Chapter Quizzes (Approx 15) – 5 points eachPost Chapter Exams (Approx 15) – 10 points eachSubmitted online (as instructed). Must be received by 11 pm on the day it is due (lose 1 point per 24 hours late).Four lecture exams - 100 points eachTwo lab Practical Exams ?- 100 points eachPossible Lab activities (online submission; must be completed during lab) – 5 points eachComprehensive Exam ?- ?200 pointsExtra Credit - points will varyGrades will be based on your percentage score:Calculation of Grade: You can calculate your grade at any point during the semester by adding the points you have accumulated, dividing the points you could have accumulated (if you got everything correct), then multiply that decimal number by 100. Match the number with the grade scale below.A = 93-100; A- = 90-92; B+ = 88-89; B = 83-87; B- = 80-82; C+ = 78-79; C = 73-77; C- = 70-72; D+ = 68-69; D = 63-67; D- = 60-62; F < 60.Attendance Policy:It is important that you come to all classes (Lecture and Lab). Assignments will be collected, and quizzes and exams will be given at the beginning of the scheduled class. If you miss the class when an assignment is collected or when a quiz or exam is given, without an excused absence, you will receive a 0 for the assignment, quiz or exam. If you come to class after the assignment is collected, you will receive a reduction in your grade for that assignment (the amount of the reduction to be determined by me).You will not be able to take an exam if you arrive late and one student or more has finished the exam and left the room, you will not be able to take the exam and will receive a 0 (if lateness is unexcused).You will not be able to leave the exam room once an exam begins (so please use the rest room before coming to class on that day).Unexcused absences:All excused absences must be agreed upon by you and me. If you anticipate missing a class, and feel it is because of a legitimate excuse, please check with me first to see if I agree. I may not agree with what you think is an excused absence. I reserve the right to make final decision on what constitutes an excused absence. Unless the emergency prevents you from contacting me, you must contact me before or during the class or lab when an assignment, quiz or exam is due. If you don’t, you will receive a 0 for the assessment (quiz, exam, etc).Technology use in class:You may use a computer in class, but only for designated class work (lecture ppts, note taking, etc). You may not use the computer for any other purpose (social media, email, movies, games, etc). I will reduce your grade 2% for first offense, 5% for second offense for misuse. I reserve the right to stop computer use by the whole class if a problem persists.You may not use your cell phones (please silence them) or text message during class or lab. I will reduce your grade 2% for first offense, 5% for second offense for misuse.Weekly Course Schedule (check assignment page of web site for daily schedule)**(Please note that this schedule may change as the course proceeds. I will post the final assignments approximately 1 week before due dates)All etext, activities, exams/tests are posted and/or can be accessed through the My A&P siteWeek 1Sept 4-61.

It is your responsibility to attend all lectures and laboratories. If you have to miss class, you are still responsible for the material and announcements (an excused absence will be determined by me, after discussion with you). If you have to miss lecture, obtain lecture notes from a classmate, and read the text. It is extremely difficult to make up a missed lab; remember that missing a lab also inconveniences your lab partner. An unexcused absence from the lab will result in two points being subtracted from your final course grade. If you have to miss an exam (for a legitimate reason, see above), please make arrangements with the course instructor ahead of time to take the exam at a time earlier than the scheduled time. Be aware that a makeup exam may be of a different type (ie essay questions). Missing an exam, quiz or any assessment (except when approved by me), failure to make arrangements and take a make-up, will result in a grade of zero. The Health Center, your coach, or other appropriate party must confirm your absence. Extra help understanding course materials. Your instructor is available for extra help during office hours and other times. Additional help will be provided by the Unified Nursing Instructional Team (UNIT). Exams and quizzes. Lecture exams will be taken from the lecture notes and lecture text and will be a combination of multiple choice, short answer, and the labeling of diagrams. You are responsible for all the material covered in the text. We will not be able to cover everything in lecture. I will try to present material that is most challenging. Material we don’t cover (but you are still responsible for) I feel you should be able to understand by reading the text. Lab exams are “practical exams” that require you to identify structures on actual specimens and give their function or other attribute. There will be lecture and lab quizzes; these will be “announced”. The lowest quiz grade will be dropped from your average. In general, there will be no make-up quizzes. If you have an excused absence on the day of a quiz, you will receive your average quiz grade for that quiz. To receive credit for your quiz grade, you must be present at the start of the quiz. If you are late, you may not be allowed to take the quiz. Disability accommodation. If you have a documented disability that requires academic accommodation, please notify your instructor and contact the Learning Support Specialist, Patty Jacobsen, in “The Loft”, Fifth Floor Yager (X4435), as early in the semester as possible. Patty is also available for help with study skills. ***** Johnstone Science Center Hours ***** In addition to the normal weekday hours of operation, Johnstone Science Center is also open: 1) Weekdays, 5 PM - 11 PM 2) Saturday, 10 AM - 6 PM 3) Sunday, 11 AM - 11 PM ***** ACADEMIC HONESTY ***** Your instructor adheres to the College’s Policy on Academic Honesty as printed in the current edition of the Student Handbook. This means that cheating, plagiarism and other forms of academic dishonesty, as defined in the Policy, will not be permitted in this class and that the penalties in the Policy will apply. ***** SUCCESS IN THE COURSE ***** Success comes with regular study and continual review. 1. Study. You will be most successful if you attend class regularly, keep up with the reading, and study lecture notes and lab exercises thoroughly. In order of priority for lecture: 1) know your lecture notes well: they are an overview and outline of the course, 2) study parts of the book related to the lecture notes, 3) examine course CDs for appropriate materials, 4) read parts of the book not covered by lecture notes, and 5) utilize your online resource center (A&P Place). For lab: 1) know the information presented at the beginning of the lab period, 2) be able to identify all the structures you examined in the lab and know the function of these structures and, 3) utilize your online resource center (myaandp). 2. Study. You should spend more course time outside class than in class. A rough guideline is to spend at least two hours of study outside of class for each hour in class. Attending supplemental instruction helps reinforce the material you are learning. Reading lecture and lab material prior to class gives you a knowledge base that you can build on during and after class and allows you to be more efficient and productive with your time. Reviewing your notes, text, or lab manual following class while information is fresh in your mind is also recommended. 3. Repetition, Repetition, Repetition. Follow your initial study with constant review. Repetition is an important key to learning and it is particularly important in anatomy & physiology with its many terms and concepts. You can’t learn the terms and concepts by reading the material once. Repetition also helps place information into your long-term memory. 4. Take ownership of your learning. It is up to you to learn the course material – your instructor, the UNIT, or a tutor can help, but ultimately it is up to you to learn the material. 5. This is your college education. Don’t forget that this is your college education. Make sure that you get what you want from it. Just like anything else, what you get out of a course depends on the effort you put into it.Accessibility: Hartwick College is committed to upholding and maintaining all aspects of the Federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.?
