PHYSIOL 3103 - Integrated and Applied Systems Physiology

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2022

The Integrated and Applied Systems Physiology course is designed to challenge and stimulate your interest in how the integration of organ systems is necessary for whole body function. We will use examples that focus on the complex integration of multiple systems, including neural, gastrointestinal and cardiovascular, which enable human function. The lecture stream offers a series of independent modules covering the following main topics: cardiovascular and respiratory health and disease, gastrointestinal function and nutrient signalling, and bone marrow development. An added dimension of many of the topics is the physiological basis of the development of common diseases and changes that occur throughout the lifespan. Assessment tasks are designed to encourage, application of knowledge in to practice.

  • Learning Resources
    Required Resources
    Course reading will focus on review articles and published scientific papers, posted on the course Canvas website. There is no required textbook. ONLINE RESOURCES (free) recommended in the course include: Pubmed www.ncbi.nlm.gov/pubmed - for database searching of scientific journal articles YouTube www.youtube.com – for videos on physiological processes
    Recommended Resources
    No text book is required, reference to published scientific papers will be possible through 最新糖心Vlog Library Resources.
    Online Learning
    This course will use Canvas as a major component. All lecture notes, tutorial activities and lecture recordings will be posted on Canvas. Announcements and weekly student update emails will be sent via the site. The module tests will be administered online via Canvas or in lecture depending or availability of resources. Theory will be presented in lectures and assigned published scientific papers, and supported by in-class review sessions (‘lectorials’).
  • Learning & Teaching Activities
    Learning & Teaching Modes
    Blended learning will take place in this course. Large group lecture sessions will vary. Some sessions will be lectures, others will be question and answer sessions and case-based scenarios. Students will be divided into small groups to undertake problem-solving tasks in these sessions and within the tutorial groups. Some lectures will be pre-recorded and utlilise the flipped classroom approach.

  • Assessment

    The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

    1. Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
    2. Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
    3. Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
    4. Assessment must maintain academic standards.

    Assessment Summary

  • 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.

  • Policies & Guidelines

    This section contains links to relevant assessment-related policies and guidelines - all university policies.

  • 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.
