ANATOMY/PHYSIOLOGY OVERVIEW:
It is an exciting time to be in a science class! The rapid pace of innovation in research and technology expands our understanding of our world daily. In this course, you work alongside your peers and teacher to learn about principles and techniques used by scientists that guide their thinking and their research. Your experience will be interactive and collaborative – just as scientists are in their research.
It is a primary goal of mine that I help you develop a foundational understanding of anatomy/physiology that will not only prepare you for work in future science courses, but enable you to function as scientifically literate citizens in your community. I want you to discover connections among science concepts and use the terminology, technology, and tools of scientists to enhance your understanding of the material.
I am here to help you toward that goal! I will help you by sharing what I know about A/P, through the investigation in lab and by providing opportunities for you to develop and practice your critical thinking skills. It is my hope that you will come to love anatomy and physiology as much as I do!
