Comprehensive Final Exam 11 AM
– 1 PM |

There will be a quiz and/or test each lab.
Labs will include some dissections, hands-on activities, models, case studies
and problem based learning. You will be expected to work as part of a
group.
Interactive Physiology assignments are due as noted on this sheet and/or in class. You will lose points if worksheets are turned in late. We will post a spreadsheet of your progress. It is your responsibility to be sure we are accurate. Corrections must be made within a week of of the time the spreadsheet is posted. No changes after that.
CQs (Clicker quizzes) can occur 1 to 4 times a
week. These include "pop quizzes." You will not always know in
advance. Be sure to bring your "clickers" each day. I suggest you
carry a spare battery.
Points for CQs:
1 point if you are present and take the quiz, even if you
answer incorrectly (break even)
2 points if you answer correctly (bonus point)
0 points if you are absent (you lose a point) No make-ups, don't ask.
Tests 1, 2, and 3 are multiple choice, true/false Scantron tests. Tests will be made available for you to
review within a week after the exam. Scores will be posted within days of
the exam. If you discover inaccuracies in the the
posting, you must let me know within the week. No end-of-quarter grade
changes. You may challenge exam questions but no points will be given
because you failed to fill in a "bubble."
