BIOL 227B Human Anatomy & Physiology I

Students will consider the impact of anatomy and physiology on the quality of their lives and those they love from cradle to grave.  They will be challenged to place the content of their learning into frameworks of life, time, biological science, and fundamental understandings as a way of providing a real-world context for their learning.   A research component of the course introduces and reinforces thinking skills in diagnosis, cause and effect, organization, and communication and rallies a general education component, rich with diversity, and common among all course sections.  Human systems to be covered in BIOL 227 include Integumentary, Skeletal, Muscular, and Nervous.  BIOL 227 meets Idaho Statewide General Education requirements as a Scientific Way of Knowing.  In addition, BIOL 227 is driven from student learning outcomes established by the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS).  To facilitate student success, this course meets for an additional one hour per week to ensure further personal exploration of content. This course includes both lecture and lab components.
