Articulation: visit the website for information regarding articulation with other colleges/universities.
Anatomy 1 is an intensive lecture and laboratory course that includes the study of cells, tissues, and organs of the human body. The lectures correspond closely with the laboratory experience providing the student various modalities to learn about the many organ systems: integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive. Use of the microscope and dissection of a cat are highlights of this fascinating course.
Student Learning Outcomes
1. Anatomy 1 students will develop a vocabulary of appropriate terminology to effectively communicate information related to anatomy.
2. Anatomy 1 students will apply gross and microscopic anatomy to identify histological preparations and anatomical structures.
Major Objectives
(1) To learn the language and fundamental concepts of basic human anatomy in order to be successful in future academic and/or professional endeavors.
(2) To grow as a student of science, by integrating lectures, discussions, laboratories, home-study, and small-group study into a holistic approach to learning.
(3) To work as a member of a laboratory team, taking responsibility for one’s own success, but learning to adapt, share, and learn with others during laboratory meetings.
Books
required: NOTE: If you intend to pursue clinical medicine as a career (e.g. nursing, physical therapy, radiology technician, occupational therapy, etc.) you SHOULD want to purchase a text book that you will keep for future reference during your career.

Evaluation and Grading
(1) Quizzes (10 points each)
A quiz will be administered at the start of lecture on 8 different occasions during the semester. Quiz #1 will be given on Wednesday, February 19 at 3:35 PM (do not be late!!!). Each quiz will take approximately fifteen minutes and will emphasize material covered during previous class meetings. The quizzes are intended to stress the importance of staying up with the material! There will be a total of 8 quizzes worth 10 points each. At the end of the semester the lowest quiz score will be dropped and the highest of the all quiz scores will be counted as Extra Credit. Quizzes cannot be made up!! Do not be late to class! You will need a single 50-question vertical Scan-Tron answer form.
(2) Laboratory Review Sheets and Lab Participation (about 15 X 10 = about 150 points)
Students are required to complete the Review Sheets at the end of each lab exercise. The Review Sheets for each of the laboratory meetings will be worth 10 points each. Do not underestimate the value of these points! Every semester some students lose a whole grade because of absence, tardies, failure to participate, or failure to hand-in Review Sheets complete and on-time. Students are encouraged to work together to complete these review sheets, but simple copying will definitely not help you learn the material. If all you do is copy – you will be cheating yourself and lessen your chances of passing this class. A student who is absent from two or more labs is subject to receiving a failing grade.
(3) Objective Midterm Exams (3 X 100 = 300 points)
There will be 3 objective midterm exams. No make-up midterms will be given. A student who has an excused absence from one midterm only will have the percentage earned on the next examination counted for that missed score.
(4) Lab Practical Midterm Exams (2 X 50 = 100 points)
There will be 2 midterm laboratory practical exams. The practical exam will involve the “hands-on” identification and understanding of material presented in the laboratory exercises. No make-up midterms will be given. Do not be late.
(5) Final Objective Exam (100 points)
The Final Objective Exam is on Monday, June 8 from 5:30 – 7:30 PM. It will include all material covered in the course (50%) and the last weeks (50%). No make-up Final Exam will be given. Students should plan their schedule accordingly.
(6) Final Laboratory Practical Exam (50 points)
The Final Laboratory Final Exam will be after the Final Objective Exam on Monday, June 8 and will cover ½ the new material since Laboratory Practical Exam #2 and material covered prior to Laboratory Practical Exam #2. The Monday Lab will have their lab practical final exam from 7:40 – 8:30 PM and the Wednesday Lab will have their lab practical final exam from 8:40 – 9:30 PM. No make-up Final Exam will be given. Students should plan their schedule accordingly.
GRADING SCALE:
Percentage of Total Points Earned Letter Grade
100.00 – 90.00% A
89.99 – 80.00% B
79.99 – 70.00% C
69.99 – 60.00% D
59.99 – lower% not passing (F)
Note: Total Points Possible may vary depending on circumstances during the semester.

General Guidance and Comments
I will remain after class to answer questions and offer individual assistance. Appointments to meet at other times may be arranged. Do not be shy. I am here to help you learn and it is a pleasure for me to give extra help when requested.
Do not fall behind! This is a fast-paced course that covers a lot of material in very few class meetings. It is incumbent upon each student to do the readings, participate actively in the lab, and study diligently at home.

Did I say that enough times??????
How do I learn this material?
Repetition!
Repetition!

Work together! It is phenomenal what two or more people can learn at a lab table working together compared to one lonely, lost soul trying to find a "fungiform papilla" on a tongue slide. Come to class prepared to help one another.
Ask questions! There is no such thing as a stupid question. The chances are that if you don't know what is going on, 80% of the class is sitting there as ignorant as you, waiting for someone to ask. We have all been there before. So speak up!
Read the assigned text before the lecture! Anatomy is a subject that is learned by repetition, repetition, repetition........... Reading and becoming familiar with the topic and the vocabulary will allow the lectures to help make “sense” of the text book and start you on the process of sinking the material into your gray matter!
Turn off electronic devices. Please be courteous to me and other students in the class. ALL electronic devices (including digital watches) must be placed in an appropriate storage location (e.g. book bag, brief case, computer storage compartment, etc.) that is CLOSED (e.g. zipped book bag) during all quizzes and exams. Any technological devices that could inappropriately assist a student in any way during a quiz or exam MUST be out of reach of the student. Even the APPEARANCE of a technological device being within observable range of a student during a quiz or exam is subject to severe penalty. CHEATING WILL NOT BE TOLERATED AT ALL AND ANY STUDENT CAUGHT CHEATING WILL BE SUBJECT TO SEVERE PENALTY (please read the final page of this syllabus – The Code of Honor and Integrity).
Additional Materials
Scan-Tron answer sheets will be required for Quizzes and Objective Examinations.

Code of Honor and Integrity
Los Angeles Mission College
Department of Life Sciences
Students at Los Angeles Mission College, because they are members of an academic community dedicated to the achievement of excellence and the pursuit of honor, are expected to meet high standards of personal, ethical, and moral conduct. These standards require personal integrity and a commitment to honesty without compromise. Without the ability to trust in these principles, an academic community and a civil society cannot exist. Los Angeles Mission College students and faculty are as committed to the development of students with honesty and integrity as they are to the academic and professional success of its students.
The Code of Honor and Integrity is an undertaking of the students, first and foremost, both individually and collectively, that they will:
1. not give or receive dishonorable aid during exams, quizzes or assignments (this includes use of electronic devices).
2. do their share and take an active part in seeing to it that fellow students, as well as themselves, uphold the spirit and letter of the Code of Honor and Integrity.
Some examples of conduct that are regarded as being in violation of the Code include:
• Copying from another’s examination or quiz, or allowing another to copy from one’s own papers
• Using any unpermitted source of information, human or other, during an exam, quiz or assignment that influences the grade; this includes the use of technological devices
• Any student-to-student collaboration that is unpermitted
• Plagiarism (plagiarism is defined as the use, without giving reasonable and appropriate credit to, or acknowledging the author or source, of another person's original work)
• Representing as one’s own work, the work of another (e.g. simple copying of a student’s Review Sheet)
• Giving or receiving aid on an academic assignment under circumstances in which a reasonable person should have known that such aid is not permitted
As a part of the effort to promote an environment of honesty and integrity during assignments, quizzes and examinations, the following guidelines will apply for any courses in the Department of Life Sciences:
1. Students will leave all books and all other non-essential items (e.g. paper, electronic devices) in a secure location (e.g. zipped book bag) so that they are not useable nor block the sight line between professor and student. No electronic devices will be in reach of the student – they must be securely stowed away from observation or reach.
2. Students will not communicate in any way that will dishonorably assist themselves or another student.
3. Students will leave the room during an exam only if permitted by the professor’s policy. If permitted, only one student may leave the room at any time and be gone for only the average length of time needed for the stated purpose. Students will leave all purses, bags, books, phones, jackets, etc., in the classroom during the absence.
4. Students will promote the spirit and letter of the Code of Honesty and Integrity by dissuading fellow students from dishonest activity and, when such casual persuasion does not work, informing the professor of the possible dishonest activity, either anonymously, or otherwise. Honor and Integrity is required by all students at all times.
5. Students will make every effort to avoid even the appearance of dishonesty or lack of integrity.
Violation of this policy will not be tolerated and violators will be subject to severe penalties. The success of the Code of Honor and Integrity is based upon the collective desire of students, faculty and the community to live in an environment that embraces respect for that which is right – both at the college and in society as a whole.
