Course Title: BIOL 3920 Cadaver Dissection I
Professor: Dr. John Cossel Jr.
Credits: 1 credit
Meeting time: Wednesdays3:20 – 5:20 and on your own as necessary
Suggested text: Atlas of Clinical Gross Anatomy. Moses et al. 2005.
Course Description: Teams will dissect under the direction of the professor for a minimum of 2 hours per week (normally 2-3+ hrs./week). Additional time may be required for instrument clean up, quiz preparation and to finish locating target structures.
You will be working in pairs (2 pairs per body) to dissect and locate the structures listed for each week. You will receive a participation/performance grade based on your attendance and dissection performance (up to 1 pt. for each structure dissected and prepared on or before the due date (see calendar). The following is a list of manyof the structures for which you will be responsible, however others may be added!!!. Please note that this list is likely not all inclusive. In addition to dissecting and locating structures you will also need to know the basic function of these structures. This will be covered during group dissection time, and will be assessed during the regular quizzes. There will be a final “quiz” over a selection of all the material we cover during the semester. The approximate distribution of your grade points is 45% quizzes, 45% participation/performance and 10% “final”.
