ANAT SC 1102 - Human Biology IA

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2019

Are you studying in health and medical sciences, preparing for a health-related career, or simply keen to learn more about how our amazing bodies function in both health and disease? Human Biology provides students with an introduction to the anatomical 最新糖心Vlog and physiological functions of the human body. Students will investigate the relationships between normal structure and function in human cells, tissues and organs. Human Biology IA course content is divided into six modules: Cells; Tissues; Bone, Joints and Muscle: Nervous System: Endocrine System; and Reproduction. As well as introducing students to content, emphasis is placed on developing skills in research, critical analysis and communication of scientific information relevant to the study of humans. The course does not assume prior knowledge of year 12 biology or chemistry.

Course Learning Outcomes

1	Demonstrate a basic level of knowledge of the structure of the human body at both the microscopic and macroscopic levels of organisation.
2	Demonstrate an understanding that structure and function are interrelated, and provide specific examples of such interrelationships from within the human body.
3	Correlate specific structural features of cells, tissues, organs and systems of the human body with their normal functions, and appreciate that alterations to structure affect function.
4	Apply their knowledge of the human body in the interpretation of common health-related scenarios encountered in day-to-day living.
5	Demonstrate respect for the human body and for the diversity observed within the human species.
6	Work cooperatively in tutorials and practicals to gain deeper understanding
7	Demonstrate research skill development including locating, critically evaluating, organising, synthesising and communicating scientific information.
8	Develop and display the motivation necessary for ongoing independent learning.

Student Feedback

The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness

Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
