1. Ability to understand the different structures of the body of living organisms |
2. Enables him to dissect diverse organisms and be able to recognize different organs |
3. clarify the concepts of the phenotypic and physiological anatomical study of the different classes of the animal kingdom |
4. A comparative study of the following organs and organs in the seven denominations |
Teaching and learning methods
1. Lectures and presentations by PowerPoint and documentaries supporting the lecture
2. Preparing reports in an assignment to be evaluated for some of the topics that need to be checked and researched
3. The practical activity is that each student dissects and describes the full terminology of each animal he aims to dissect on a predetermined day and documents this by filming a video that collects all the work at the end of the semester
Methods of assessments
Methods of evaluating students in this course: (semester work 40% and final 60%)
Documenting the practical lessons with reports attached to an explanatory video, and each 4 students presented the reports and explanatory videos to their group
Semester work: divided between written midterm exams, assignments and assignments
Final written exam.
