Human Anatomy, 5th Edition, The Benjamin/Cummings Publishing Company, Inc., Menlo Park, California, 2008.Course Description:Introduction to gross human anatomy. Examination of skeletal, muscular, nervous, circulatory, respiratory and excretory systems. Directed to applications in health and physical education. Demonstrations with pre-dissected specimens.Course Objectives:1. Introduce students to appropriate basic anatomical terminology necessary for further study in the fields of health and physical education.2. Provide the student with pertinent human gross anatomy of the extremities and trunk.3. Correlate the structure of bones, muscles, nerves, vessels and connective tissues with human movement and function.4. Synthesize knowledge of regional anatomy necessary for understanding basic concepts related to biomechanics, exercise physiology and motor learning.5. Provide an overview of common athletic injuries encountered in physical education.6. Provide a basis for understanding how developmental, acquired, or chronic disabilities and/or diseases impact normal anatomical functioning.Course Pattern:Organization:This course will consist of approximately 60 hours of class sessions and 12 hours of laboratory experiences. The expectation of the instructor is that students will need to spend time outside of class studying this material in order to complete the class successfully.Focus:This course provides an introduction to the gross anatomy of the extremities and trunk necessary for the further study of the disciplines of athletic training, exercise science, health, physical education and recreation/outdoor education. Lectures concentrate on the regional anatomy of the limbs and trunk and upon systemic anatomy related to a basic understandingof the adaptation of the body to exercise. Practical applications are presented relative to athletic injury, physical conditioning, human locomotion, growth and development, and disease. Concepts are reinforced utilizing clinical review and cadaver pro-section labs.Class participation:Students are encouraged to participate in all discussions and ask questions as the need arises.Readings:It is important that you keep up with the readings assigned in the text. Class lectures are built on the assumption that you will have read the material. In some instances the material within the text will not be directly covered in class lectures. Therefore, it is important for you to stay current in your readings.Evaluation:The instructor believes that multiple measures of performance are the most reliable means for establishing a students’ performance within any given class. Therefore, the following evaluation techniques will be employed:Laboratory Examinations:Two laboratory examinations will be conducted during the course of the session. These examinations will assess the students’ knowledge of the skeletal system and the working musculature.Examinations:Four major examinations of course content will be conducted during the session. Examinations will not be cumulative. These will be distributed across the course of the month. The date of the final examination will be on Monday, December 18th, 2006.Grading:A cumulative point total will be used to establish a final letter grade for the course. The weighting of each assessment and an approximate grade scale appears on the following page.Student AssessmentsLab Assignments (10@ 10 points each) 100Examination Number One 150Laboratory Examination Number One 75Examination Number Two 150Laboratory Examination Number Two 80Examination Number Three 150Final Examination 150Cumulative Point Total 855Approximate Grade Scale855 - 770 total points = A769 - 685 total points = B684 - 600 total points = C599 - 515 total points = DEthical Responsibilities for Cadaver Lab:All specimens to be studied are obtained from the bodies of individuals who have donated their bodies to science before death. Please consider it a distinct privilege to beable to study the anatomy of these specimens. The instructor respectfully requests that each student treat the specimens with care and dignity.Never take cadaver material or embryological specimens out of the dissecting laboratory.Disregard for this rule is a serious offense and may constitute a justifiable basis for dismissal.Never take photographs of the cadavers or other anatomical specimens. Cameras as well as cell phones are not allowed in the laboratory.Never take food or drink into the cadaver lab. Eating or drinking IS PROHIBITED in the laboratory.Be sensitive. Don’t talk about your experience in the cadaver lab with those outside of class. People listening to your conversation may not understand the rationale behind thedecision to provide you with this learning experience.Tentative Class ScheduleDate Chapter TopicSeptember 2 Chapter 1 The Body: An OrientationSeptember 3 Chapter 1 The Body: An OrientationSeptember 4 Lab The Body: An OrientationSeptember 5 Chapter 4 TissueSeptember 8 Chapter 4 TissueSeptember 9 Chapter 4 TissueSeptember 10 Chapter 4 TissueSeptember 11 Lab TissueSeptember 12 Chapter 5 The Integumentary SystemSeptember 15 Chapter 5 The Integumentary SystemSeptember 16 Chapter 5 The Integumentary SystemSeptember 17 Chapter 6 Bones and Skeletal TissueSeptember 18 Lab Bones and Skeletal TissueSeptember 19 Chapter 6 Bones and Skeletal TissueSeptember 22 Exam 1 (Chapters 1, 4, 5 and 6)September 23 Chapter 6 Bones and Skeletal TissueSeptember 24 Chapter 7 Bones: Part 1: The Axial SkeletonSeptember 25 Lab Bones: Part 1: The Axial
