Evaluation and Grading
This class
consists of both lectures and labs. students will be tested over knowledge
learned from both.
You will have detailed outlines and study guides for each test. Tests will consist of multiple choice,
matching and written questions. The
final exam will have 2 parts: the last lecture test and a cumulative test.
§
Source of Grades: Your grade will
be determined by adding all of the points you earn on tests, there are no
out-of-class assignments. You will
receive up to 25 points for completing the laboratory dissections. All tests will count toward your final
grade. You can earn bonus points (4% of test value)
any time a test score exceeds your average by 2%. there will be optional
online testing that you can do. The sum
of these quizzes will be approximately the same as a test grade.
§
Grading Scale A = 90-100% B =
80-89% C = 70-79% D = 60-69%
F = below 60%
§
Weight of individual assignments: Tests are not weighted. They are recorded as points earned, not as a
percent of the total.
Learning Objectives/Course Outline
§
Institutional Learning Outcomes:
ASU-Beebe is committed to providing students
with a broad-based educational experience and focuses, through general
education coursework, on five essential learning outcomes: Communication,
Critical Thinking, Mathematical Concepts and Application, Scientific Inquiry
and Methodology, Society and Self. The
learning objectives of all courses are linked to these institutional learning
outcomes to ensure that outcomes of individual courses are consistent with the
university’s institutional goals. These
institutional essential learning outcomes can be viewed at www.asub.edu.
§
Learning
Objectives:
Upon completion of this course the successful student should be able to:
§
Identify and describe basic human
tissue types
§
Identify the individual bones and major
features of the human skeleton
§
Identify major muscles of the cat and
their human counterparts
§
Identify the major structural features
of the brain
§
Demonstrate a thorough knowledge of biochemistry,
basic cell structure and function
§
Demonstrate a thorough knowledge of the
basic anatomy of the integument and derivatives
§
Describe the mechanics of
skeletal/muscular movement and joints
§
Describe physiological mechanisms
involved in maintenance or loss of bone matrix
§
Describe physiological mechanisms
involved in muscle contraction
§
Demonstrate a thorough knowledge of the
basic structural and functional organization of the nervous system
§
Demonstrate proper use of the
microscope, other lab equipment and proper lab technique
§
The student will participate in
dissections that are appropriate for AP1
Attendance/Participation Policy: Students are expected to attend all
lectures and participate in all labs (including animal dissection). If you miss 2 weeks worth of class, I can
drop you with an F. Please do not sleep
in class, you will be marked absent that day.
If you miss a class it is your responsibility to obtain a copy of
missed notes and handouts. I recommend
that you get to know other people in the class so you could copy notes if
necessary.
- The textbook should be brought to class. Diagrams and pictures from the book are
frequently referred to during the lecture and the laboratory.
- I use Power point presentations throughout this class. I can copy of these presentations onto
your flash (jump) drive. Animations
can be viewed by right clicking on the file name, then open with Explorer.
- Read and study all chapters and exercise indicated
on the general outline.
- Take good notes in lecture and lab. I recommend that you tape record the
lectures.
- Study daily, and review often. College level courses generally require
about 2 hours of study for every hour of class.
- Do all lab assignments. Make good use of free lab time - use
aids such as models, etc., which are not available elsewhere.
- You must,
using all the methods above, come to know and understand the subject
matter of each unit. You must be
able to respond, IN WRITING, to any question relating to the subject
matter.
- All terms must be spelled correctly.
Make-up/ Late Work Policy: Students are expected to notify me when circumstances
prevent taking a scheduled test.
Ordinarily, only one lecture test may be made up. Make up tests must be arranged with me as
soon as you return to class. Laboratory
exams must be taken on the scheduled day.
If you make-up a laboratory test or more than 1 lecture test, 10% will
be deducted from your grade for that test.
You can not make bonus points on make-up tests.
Web Site: I post
grades on my web site. I also have copies
of the syllabus and outlines. You can
find the web site by:
asub.edu; Academic Programs; Go to
Math & Science course syllabi; Biology; Melissa Meador
ACADEMIC HONESTY POLICY: Cheating in any form
- including but not limited to looking at a classmate’s test, unauthorized
possession of exams, or using unauthorized materials during exams -may result
in the student being dropped from the class with an "F" or being
suspended from the University. The
University's standards for academic honesty are set forth in the Student
Handbook.
Accommodation Statement: It is the policy of ASU-Beebe to accommodate
students with disabilities, pursuant to federal law and state law. Any student with a disability who would like
to request accommodations please contact the Counselor/Coordinator of Disability Services at 501-882-8263 at the
ASU-Beebe campus. Documentation review
and accommodations for all ASU-Beebe system students with disabilities are
authorized by the Counselor/Coordinator of Disability Services.
Disclaimer: This syllabus represents a “best” plan for
the course, but, as with most plans, it is subject to changes made necessary by
time, space, and personal constraints.
The course outline, as well as exam and assignment dates, may change as
the course progresses. Students should
attend all class meetings to learn of any schedule changes.
