You've heard of the diseases but do you actually understand them? So many things can go wrong with the human body... And learning about them is a fun and fascinating way to better understand human anatomy and physiology. Every week we'll dig into one diagnosis. We'll focus on both the pathophysiology of the condition (how does it happen in the body) and the experience of the person. Classroom culture: * I teach largely using the Socratic method (asking questions to elicit what you already know, helping you think through the question yourself) so expect a lot of interaction. * Unless you have a specific reason, I prefer all cameras on during class so students feel comfortable knowing with whom they are interacting. * If you are uncomfortable interacting, please message me so we can figure out a solution together so you can get the most out of the class! I do also offer a large number of FLEX classes if that's your preference. In each class we'll: * review any anatomy and physiology that's needed as background (the class is appropriate for students with a wide range of background knowledge, they don't need to have taken anatomy before) * dig into what is going wrong * explore why that causes the symptoms the person experiences * discuss what can be done to restore normal physiology * images or videos will usually be used to show aspects of the condition that are best understood that way Who this class is for: * Learners interested in studying anatomy and physiology from a more interesting angle * Learners considering a career in medicine, nursing, or pharmacy * Learners who enjoy STEM and maybe didn't consider human biology previously Topics are by request and this schedule will be updated as we get closer to the dates Note: I'm currently planning the fall schedule so current learners should submit requests now if you want to get your ideas on the schedule in the next couple months!

學習目標
Students will develop their critical thinking skills as they apply basic anatomy and physiology to specific problems.
其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
Nothing in this class will be or is intended to be medical advice. This is merely educational in nature and will be a surface-level overview. Your student will not be coming out of this class knowing anything about how to diagnose or treat these conditions and we will not be discussing any personal medical questions/needs. Students should come with general questions about the topic.
Who this class not for:
* Learners who are easily grossed out--we won't be looking at anything extreme but we may look at images or videos of healthy or diseased organs, for example
* Learners who are easily upset--while I work to keep my lessons encouraging and never scary, we are talking specifically about what goes wrong. I try to choose particular examples that are not fatal and avoid really distressing conditions but I don't know what will trigger your learner and I can't control what questions other learners may ask. While I am quite skilled at managing the classroom, I will answer most questions simply and directly, which might mean admitting that something can be fatal or cause significant problems. I always include a reassurance of how rare it is, available treatments, etc. But if the knowledge that diseases can cause death or debility would be extremely distressing to you/your learner then I would recommend one of my other classes.
I will usually include a video to better understand a particular aspect of a condition. This may be a patient story or may show a diagnostic procedure such as an endoscopy. I will never show anything gory or inappropriate.
供應清單
If learners have models or books, they are welcome to bring them to class. These are not at all necessary as I will be using models and illustrations together with examples and stories to help the organs really come alive for the students.

As a family physician with a decade in private practice, I love teaching young people about how their bodies work. I believe that people who understand their bodies will take better care of them. I've now taught well over 1000 learners on Outschool and love spending my time with young people!評論
