Department Mission Relationship

Anatomy and Physiology presents the rational and systematic observation of the human body, and allows for the identification, description, and experimental investigation to begin to explain and understand the human body.

Course Description

This course presents a general approach to the study of the human body with emphasis on anatomical structure and physiological process. Discussion of disease processes, bodily dysfunction and diagnosis will be incorporated when appropriate. The laboratory component of this course provides students with hands-on experiences, as opposed to workbook and or computer-generated activities that could be done in a non-laboratory setting. Ideally, laboratory activities should encourage critical thinking, the understanding of scientific methodology, and the application of scientific principles.

Course Objectives:

Intended Outcomes: / Selected ILO Indicator / Assessment Methods: /

1.  functional aspects of respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems
2.  basic chemical principles of gas exchange
3.  basic chemical principles and physical process of fluid/electrolyte balance
4.  The buffering mechanisms that maintain acid-base balance in body fluid

Lab Exams (3) 3 @ 50 150 points

Lab Quizzes (6) 6 @ 10 60 points

Reading Assignments (6) 6 @ 5 30 points

Article Review (1) 30 points

------

Total Points 570 points

Grades will then be assigned on the percentage of points earned as given below:

A 90-100 %

B 80-89.9 %

C 70-79.9 %

D 60-69.9 %

F <59.9%

Please note that ALL exams are closed book (no notes, figures, drawings, texts, etc. may be used). The lecture exams will consist of approximately 60-85% multiple choice (bring a Scantron), 10-20% fill in the blank and/or matching, and 10% short answer (see Review Questions). The lab practicals will consist of short answer and/or fill in the blank, and may additionally include diagrams, models, and laboratory methods. The quizzes will consist of short answer questions and will be conducted the first 15 minutes of the lab class as listed in the course outline. They are to be a collaborative effort, with groups of 2 students, however if you do not agree on an answer you may each answer the question and initial your response. All quizzes will be collected at the end of 15 minutes. Please note that those late to lecture will not receive any extra time.

Make-up Policy: only students with “legitimate” excuses (e.g., illness with a doctor’s note) may make up a lecture exam. However, any makeup work must be completed within a week following the regularly scheduled exam time and must have prior approval. Important: please note that due to the nature of laboratory work and laboratory practicals, if you miss either of the three lab exams, regardless of the excuse, you will NOT be able to make it up. There will be NO exceptions!

Lab reports may be found at the end of each laboratory in the lab guide. The reports should be completed to prepare you for the next lab quiz. Lab report answers will be posted on next regularly scheduled lab meeting. Also, be aware that plagiarism is not tolerated and will not be accepted. If you are unsure as to what constitutes plagiarism, please see your instructor as soon as possible for clarification.

Attendance policy: as this course moves along quickly and due to the fact that lab and lecture are interdependent, it is critical that you attend all classes. Role will be taken during each lecture and lab in the form of a sign-in sheet. It is YOUR responsibility to ensure that you sign this sheet each and every class. You may earn 10 points of extra credit for PERFECT attendance!!!

Please feel free to discuss any assignment, or your grade, with me at any point in the term. I will be more than willing to help you in any way that I can in order for you to attain the level of success you want to achieve in this course.

Animal Use Policy

It is the policy of the RCC Science Department to utilize animal dissections in this course. Participation in these dissections is viewed as critical to the students learning of the subject matter and is required. If a student has personal moral and/or ethical conflicts with this policy, they should confer with the instructor as soon as possible to discuss their options. For more information please see: http://www2.rogue.cc.or.us/science/Academic_Standards/dissection.htm.

Student Rights, Freedoms, and Responsibilities

Upon enrollment for the course, it is expected that students have read, understood, and agreed to the Student Rights, Freedoms, and Responsibilities Statement the purpose of which is “to (1) identify fundamental provisions for students' freedom to learn, (2) identify student conduct guidelines, and (3) clarify expectations for student responsibility as expected by members of the College community.” Copies of this statement are available from the dean of Student and Community Services. In this document, it is stated that students will agree to practice academic honesty. Failure to abide by this statement may result in dismissal from the course. In addition, it is each student’s responsibility to be aware of all college procedures, including (but not limited to) how to add, drop, or withdraw from a class and the student services available to them.

RCC’s Students Rights, Freedoms, and Responsibilities Statement may be found at: http://www.rogue.cc.or.us/BoardPolicies/appendix_3.htm

Students with Disabilities

Any student who feels that she or he may need an academic accommodation for any disability, such as vision, hearing, orthopedic, learning disabilities, psychological or other medical conditions, should make an appointment with the Support Services Office. (Located in the Wiseman Tutoring Center at the Redwood Campus or Wards/G-207 at the Riverside Campus.)
