Discipline-level learning outcomes:
Area 2 - Natural Science: Explore the Nature of Science
The purpose of the study of the natural sciences component in the core curriculum is to enable the student to understand, construct, and evaluate relationships in the natural sciences, and to understand the bases for building and testing scientific theories.
NS-1 Recognize appropriate scientific terminology.
NS-2 Apply scientific principles or concepts.
NS-3 Solve real-world problems using scientific knowledge.
Course-level learning outcomes:
| Course-level student learning outcomes | Discipline-level learning outcomes | Assessment methods |
|---|---|---|

Means of accomplishing learning outcomes:
Lecture is the primary method of instruction. Students are expected to be attentive and are encouraged to ask questions. Lectures will come primarily from the textbook in formats that may include power point presentations, white board illustrations, videos, and web-based technologies. Laboratory activities are designed to correlate with the lecture material to aid in student understanding. Homework assignments and quizzes, including the web-based Mastering Anatomy & Physiology, are required.
