Intended learning outcomes
a. Knowledge and understanding:
- Concept & Histological review of its development
- Light & Electron microscopes’ type and the purpose of each
- Bacterial anatomy and bacterial growth curve plus the interpretation of each bacterial growth phase
b. Mental skills:
- Bacterial organelles’ biochemical composition relation with their biological function
- Environmental & nutritional requirement for bacterial growth
- The required lab tools and equipment that needed to identify microscopic and cultural characteristics
- Scientific project and report academic writing as well as scientific cooperation within a team work
c. Scientific and professional skills:
- Biosafety procedures in Microbiology Laboratory
- Ideal use of Microscope, bacterial smear preparation, staining and describing microscopic features of incriminated bacteria
- Microorganisms inoculation and transfer in different cultural media and then prescribing cultural characteristics for these bacteria
- Diagnosing clinical specimen according to microscopic and cultural features for incriminated bacteria
d. General skills:
- Depend on relevant scientific textbooks and reference sources to enable student broaden his knowledge and scientific background
- Have the ability in academic writing; as a task will be requested from each student. A task is hand-writing of a scientific article or a research project about bacterial or viral or fungal zoonotic epidemiological infection
- Able to use tech aid teaching equipment (e.g. Laptop and data-show projector or over-head projector).
- Able to cooperate and contribute effectively in team-work project
Teaching and learning methods
- Scientific lectures
- Research projects and scientific articles
