The final grade is a percentage determined by dividing the total number of points obtained by 1600 points. A letter grade is assigned based on the college's grading system:











A 93-100 C 73-76
A- 90-92 C- 70-72
B+ 87-89 D+ 67-69
B 83-86 D 63-66
B- 80-82 D- 60-62
C+ 77-79 F Below 60












All ASSIGNMENTS AND EXAMS ARE FOUND ON THE HOMEPAGE OF THE CONNECT SITE


Homework:
The Homework assignments are kinesthetic in nature. YOU have 3 attempts and you can "check your work" (It will not tell you the correct answer, only your wrong answers. You can only use it 2 times per question). During the Homework Assignment, you can also receive “hints” by rolling your cursor over the blank entry box. You can also be referenced/remediated back to both the written text and the eBook via the “References” and “Related links” hyperlinks at the bottom of the page. Only your HIGHEST SCORE will be counted towards your final grade. There is a due date for each Homework assignment. NOTE: Assignment due dates will not be extended.
NOTE: I will drop 2 of the lowest or missed quizzes.


SmartBook/Learnsmart:
I have also included LearnSmart assignments. These assignments accomplish two things. They will not only assess your knowledge, they will serve as a personal “tutor.”. It is an artificial intelligence that adapts to your performance (Therefore, you should have READ THE CHAPTER and completed the HOMEWORK first!!!). It will not permit you to progress from Bloom’s Level 1 (Rote memorization) to Bloom’s Level 2 (Understanding), unless you have mastered the concepts first. When you struggle with a concept, and miss multiple questions quizzing that concept, you will be given feedback and be directed to the exact section/page in the text for review. No credit will be given to late assignments. NOTE: Assignment due dates will not be extended.
NOTE: I will drop 2 of the lowest or missed Smartbook/Learnsmart/Assignments.


Exams:
There will be 3 lecture exams based on materials from Chapters covered.
Lecture exam questions will draw from the pool of Practice exam questions, as well as HW, LS, quizzes, chapter power points, and may include materials covered in the virtual labs. Students are required to submit the exam by the designated due date. NO credit will be given for late submissions. There will be a strict time limit when taking exams. Makeup of exams is not allowed. Requirement for this class is a computer with a camera and google chrome to be used during exams. Exams taken without the use of a camera will result in a failing grade.
Make sure you are WELL PREPARED, before you attempt them.
Note these are timed assignments.


Practice Lecture Exams:
Students should familiarize themselves with the material posted on the practice exams to prepare for their exams.
They will only be available prior to the scheduled exam date. NOTE: Lecture exam questions will draw from the pool of Practice exam questions, as well as HW, LS, quizzes, chapter power points, and may include materials covered in the virtual labs.

Lab Test:
There will be one lab test based on practice lab exam questions, as well as HW, LS, quizzes, chapter power points, and may include materials covered in the virtual labs and lab assignments. Students are required to submit the test by the designated due date. No credit will be given for late submissions. There will be a strict time limit when taking exams. Requirement for this class is a computer with a camera and google chrome to be used during quizzes. Exams taken without the use of a camera will result in a failing grade. Make sure you are WELL PREPARED, before you attempt them. Note these are timed assignments.
Makeup of the lab test is not allowed.


Virtual Lab Activities:
You are required to complete designated Anatomy Dissection and Physiology Virtual Labs. These labs can be found in designated Virtual Lab Folders. Students are required to submit virtual labs by due dates. Late assignments will not be accepted. This is a lab science course and therefore these activities are mandatory. Missing three virtual lab activities will result in a failing course grade.

Resources:
Chapter Power Point Slides:
Power points slides are available to view and study on assigned chapters

Anatomy and Physiology Revealed (APR):
APR allows access to short chapter animations, histology slides, and dissection material. When you open APR select a module, then select the video, microscope or scalpel icon. Next select all content, then select desired video etc.

Assignments policies:
Students are expected to complete weekly lecture and lab assignments by due dates. Makeup of exams is not allowed. There are no virtual lab makeups. Students who miss two virtual lab sessions will receive an F grade for the course.
