1 1 CENTRAL TEXAS COLLEGE SYLLABUS FOR MDCA 1309 ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANTS Semester Hours Credit: 3 Instructor: I. INTRODUCTION Office Hours: A. Course Description: Emphasis on structure and function of human cells, tissues, organs, and systems with overview of common pathophysiology. B. This is a required course in the Medical Coding and Billing certificate of completion and associate of applied science degree. The course may be used in the Medical Office Technology associate of applied science degree or Medical Documentation Specialist associate of applied science degree. You will be required to demonstrate proficiency in the skills learned in this course in the internship or clinical courses. C. This course in conjunction with other appropriate courses prepares students to enter the health related career fields. D. Alphanumeric coding used throughout this syllabus denotes integration of SCANS occupational competencies (C1, etc.) and foundation skills (F1, etc.). II. LEARNING OUTCOMES Upon successful completion of Anatomy and Physiology for Medical Assistants, the student will: A. Identify and correlate cells, tissues, organs, and systems of the human body (C1, C5, C6, C7, C8, F1, F2, F11, F12, F16). B. Differentiate normal from abnormal structure and function (C5, C6, C7, C8, F1, F2, F10, F11, F12). C. Differentiate all body systems, their organs, and relevant pathophysiology (C5, C6, C7, C8, F1, F2, F10, F11, F12, F16). III. INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS A. Instructional Materials for this course may be found at B. Supplementary Materials: Medical dictionary AUGUST 1, 2017

2 IV. COURSE REQUIREMENTS A. Reading Assignments: To be successful in this course, you must read and study the textbook. Chapter assignments will be made with each lesson, and you are expected to complete all the work in the chapters including chapter review activities. Even though you may not be required to turn all work in for grading, you are still responsible for the material covered in the textbook exercises and website exercises. B. Class Assignments: Assignments may include a. Anatomy labeling exercises. b. Chapter review exercises. C. Multimedia Activities: Interactive companion websites or learning platforms that includes additional chapter-specific exercises. D. Class Performance: All work must be completed using a computer or word processor. Assignments must be turned in to the instructor by the due date. LATE WORK IS NOT ACCEPTED. Students enrolled in distance learning courses are expected to maintain constant progress throughout the course. Failure to do so may result in the student being administratively withdrawn by the instructor. V. EXAMINATIONS A. There will be exams (quizzes) to accompany the lessons of the course. These exams will cover information in the reading assignments, class assignments, and the multimedia activities. The majority of exam questions will be objective-type. B. Dates for completion of the lessons, including the quizzes, will be announced in the schedule provided in the online or classroom syllabus. VI. SEMESTER GRADE COMPUTATION A. Quizzes 20% B. Mindtap Assignments 20% C. Discussion Boards 20% D. Course project 20% E. Final Exam 20% 100% In order to receive a certificate of completion or associate of applied sciences degree from the Office Technology Department, you must earn a grade of C or better in this course. If you do not make at least a C, you may retake the course to achieve a grade of C or better. MDCA1309 2

3 VII. NOTES AND ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS A. Withdrawal from course: It is your responsibility as a student to officially drop a class if circumstances prevent attendance. Any student who desires to, or must, officially withdraw from a course after the first scheduled class meeting must file an Application for Withdrawal or an Application for Refund. The withdrawal form must be signed by the student. Application for Withdrawal will be accepted according to the following schedule Friday of 3 rd week for 5-week courses Friday of 4 th week for 6-week courses Friday of 6 th week for 8-week courses Friday of 7 th week for 10-week courses Friday of 9 th week for 12-week courses Friday of 12 th week for 16-week courses The equivalent date (75% of the semester) will be used for sessions of other lengths. The specific last day to withdraw is published each semester in the Schedule Bulletin. Students who officially withdraw will be awarded the grade of "W," provided the student's attendance and academic performance are satisfactory at the time of official withdrawal. Students must file a withdrawal application with the College before they may be considered for withdrawal. A student may not withdraw from a class for which the instructor has previously issued the student a grade of "F" or "FN" for nonattendance. B. An Administrative Withdrawal: Results when a student is absent an excessive number of times as defined in the current Central Texas College catalog and/or other published amendatory documentation. In such a case, the student is dropped from the course with a grade of F. Under Section of the Texas Education Code, an institution of higher education may not permit a student to drop more than six courses, including any course a transfer student has dropped at another institution of higher education. This statute was enacted by the State of Texas in spring 2007 and applies to students who enroll in a public institution of higher education as first-time freshmen in fall 2007 or later. C. An Incomplete Grade: In keeping with College policy, the instructor may grant an incomplete grade in cases in which the student had completed the majority of the MDCA1309 3

4 course work, but because of extenuating circumstances, is unable to complete the requirement for the course. Prior approval from the instructor is required before the grade of IP is recorded. Deadline for changing the IP grade is 110 days after the scheduled end of the course. An IP grade can be replaced with the student s actual grade, including an F; but it may not be replaced with a W. At the end of the 110 calendar days if the student has not completed the remaining coursework as required by the instructor, the IP will be converted to an FI and appear as an F on the student s official transcript. D. Cellular Phones: Cellular phones will be turned off while the student is in the classroom or laboratory. E. Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA): Disability Support Services provide services to students who have appropriate documentation of a disability. Students requiring accommodations for class are responsible for contacting the Office of Disability Support Services (DSS) located on the central campus. This service is available to all students, regardless of location. Explore the website at for further information. Reasonable accommodations will be given in accordance with the federal and state laws through the DSS office. F. Instructor Discretion: The instructor reserves the right of final decision in course requirements. G. Civility: Individuals are expected to be cognizant of what a constructive educational experience is and respectful of those participating in a learning environment. Failure to do so can result in disciplinary action up to and including expulsion. H. Scholastic Honesty: All students of the Office Technology program are required and expected to maintain the highest standards of scholastic honesty in the preparation of all work and in examinations. Each student should avoid: 1. Plagiarism: the taking of passages or ideas from writings of others without giving proper credit to the source. 2. Collusion: working together with another person in the preparation of work unless such joint preparation is specifically approved in advance by the instructor. 3. Cheating: giving or receiving information on an examination, homework, or projects. 4. Students found guilty of scholastic dishonesty are subject to the Office Technology Department s disciplinary action and Central Texas College s MDCA1309 4
