Learning Goals: |
Goals of the course: Buy the end of this course the students should be able to: • Apply the scientific method to understand basic biological concepts. • Compare normal cell structure and function to that of an abnormal cell. • Contrast normal with abnormal anatomy and physiology of body systems and understand how this results in the development of sickness and disease. • Relate the cell organelles and metabolic processes to weight management. • Understand how common lifestyle practices like smoking, alcohol, drugs, diet, and exercise play a part in the development of disease processes. • Access reputable websites (e.g. CDC) to investigate specific disease entities. • Apply scientific method to critical thinking and quantitative reasoning skills to understand the structure and function of the human body and the development of disease. *The learning goals displayed here are those for one section of this course as offered in a recent semester, and are provided for the purpose of information only. The exact learning goals for each course section in a specific semester will be stated on the syllabus distributed at the start of the semester, and may differ in wording and emphasis from those shown here. |
