| *Strategies and outcomes listed after instructional processes reference Pellissippi State’s goals for strengthening general education knowledge and skills, connecting coursework to experiences beyond the classroom, and encouraging students to take active and responsible roles in the educational process. | |||||||||
| IV. Expectations for Student Performance*: | |||||||||
| Upon successful completion of this course, the student should be able to: | |||||||||
| 1. | Explain
the anatomy and physiology of the following systems: C,A,B
Endocrine Cardiovascular Immune Lymphatic Respiratory Digestion Urinary Reproductive |
||||||||
| 2. | Explain the homeostatic mechanisms involved in controlling the systems above. D | ||||||||

| V. Evaluation: | |||||||||
| A. Testing Procedures: 75% of grade | |||||||||
| There
will be 7 lecture exams including a comprehensive final exam, and 3 laboratory
practical exams. The lecture exams will be a mix of short answer and multiple choice questions, while the laboratory practical exams will be all short answer exams. All lecture exams are worth 100 points and all laboratory practical exams are worth 60 points. There will be NO MAKE-UP EXAMS given. If all exams are attempted, the lowest exam score will be dropped. If for any reason an exam is not attempted, that exam will be used as the drop exam. However, the comprehensive final exam must be attempted and cannot be dropped. There will be 150 points of quizzes and/ or homework given throughout the semester in lecture. Exam Ch. 17 = 100 pts.
Lecture is worth 750 points or 75% of the grade. |
|||||||||
| B. Laboratory Expectations: 25% of grade | |||||||||
| Students
are expected to attend lab every week and complete the laboratory
activities assigned to each lab as noted on the laboratory handouts. Student work will be checked by the lab instructor before the student may leave the laboratory each week. Completed laboratory handouts are worth 8% of the lab grade. Also, students are to complete case histories each week and turn into the lab instructor. The case histories are worth 20% of the lab grade. The remainder of the laboratory grade is earned on the laboratory practical exams worth 72% of the lab grade. Practical 1 = 60 pts.
Laboratory is worth 250 points or 25% of the grade. |
|||||||||
| C. Field Work: | |||||||||
| Case Histories
assigned in laboratory require research using reference books in the
library or on the World Wide Web. A list of suggested references will be handed out during the beginning of the semester. |
|||||||||
| D. Other Evaluation Methods: | |||||||||
| Extra
Credit: There may be a total not exceeding 4% of possible lecture points
(30 points) offered in lecture and a total not exceeding 4% of possible laboratory points (10 points) offered in laboratory. |
|||||||||
| E. Grading Scale: | |||||||||
| There
will be a total of 1000 points offered in the course (750 pts. in lecture,
250 pts.
in laboratory). In order to pass the course, the student must earn 60% of the points offered in both lecture and laboratory sections of the course. If this has been achieved, then the points earned from lecture and laboratory will be added together and compared to the following grading scale: 900-1000 points (90%-100%)
= A
|
|||||||||
| VI. Policies: | |||||||||
| A. Attendance Policy: | |||||||||
| Pellissippi State Technical Community College expects students to attend all scheduled instructional activities. As a minimum, students in all courses must be present for at least 75 percent of their scheduled class and laboratory meetings in order to receive credit for the course. | |||||||||
| B. Academic Dishonesty: | |||||||||
| Plagiarism or cheating will not be tolerated. Students will receive a zero for the assignment. A second offense will result in automatic failure of the course. | |||||||||
| C. Other Policies: | |||||||||
