Anatomy and Physiology 4601

Transcription

1 Anatomy and Physiology 4601 Description Basic concepts of human anatomy and physiology will be explored in this health (life) sciencefocused course. Using a systems approach, students will learn about the interrelationships between structure and function of the body. Credits.5 Prerequisites Life Science, Biology, *Biophysical Science, or equivalent Textbooks/Resources Essentials of Human Anatomy and Physiology. Marieb, Elaine N. Pearson/Benjamin Cummings (8 th Edition). ISBN: (text); (package) Required Assessments District-wide Standards-Based Assessment Board Approved June 2007 Revised AASD Science Goals for K-12 Students Students will know about science themes and connect and integrate them into what they know about themselves and the world around them. Students will realize that scientific knowledge is public, replicable, and continually undergoing revision and refinement based on new experiments and data. Students will realize that science includes questioning, forming hypotheses, collecting and analyzing data, reaching conclusions, evaluating results, and communicating procedures and findings to others. Students will use science to explain and predict changes that occur around them. Students will use science to evaluate consequences in order to make responsible choices. Students will use their knowledge of science concepts and processes in making informed choices regarding their lifestyles and the impact they have on their environment, and enhance their natural curiosity about their environment. Students will understand that science and technology affect the Earth s systems and provide solutions to human problems. Students will use science to analyze topics related to personal health, environment, and management of resources; they will help evaluate the merits of alternative courses of action Board Approved June 2007 Page 1
