In this 8-week Multi-Day schedule course, students will discover what "anatomy" means and learn about the major sections and parts of the human body. I use engaging visuals and welcome relevant interaction and questions. I believe that the curious mind is the most pliable. Curriculum: Week 1: The Integumentary System Week 2: The Skeletal System & The Muscular System Week 3: The Nervous System & The Endocrine System Week 4: The Circulatory System Week 5: The Respiratory System Week 6: The Digestive System & The Urinary System Week 7: The Reproductive System Week 8: The Lymphatic System & The Immune System After each lesson, I post a handout reviewing the topics and terms that were covered. In addition, students will be asked to complete a "research project" each week between classes. They may choose their favorite topic from the past week's lesson, research it during the week, then present what they learned to the class the following week. (Students may also post a video of themselves presenting their research if they prefer that to presenting live.) The purposes of the research project are to: 1) keep students thinking about the subject matter between classes, 2) foster curiosity and the practice of asking questions to learn, and 3) to introduce the idea of research, which is central to all sciences. Though no previous knowledge of anatomy is required, this course may be taken after my One-Time course “Let’s Learn About You: Introduction to Anatomy”, if students are not ready to commit to an 8-week course.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Science from Brigham Young University-Idaho
While I have recently completed four university-level anatomy courses, I restrict my content to basic level anatomy only. However, my background allows me to answer the difficult or complex questions that often arise.
