[nabs-l] Anatomy and Physiology Questions

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi,

I too am taking human anatomy with the lab this coming semester.  Here
are the accommodations my prof and I brainstormed in April that we
plan to use.

* Make use of 3d models as much as possible.  My prof has an entire
skeleton model she'll let me borrow for the semester, as well as some
models of individual organs.  Some of the models, such as the one she
has for the brain, also split apart into different sections so you can
see lobes or parts of the organ at a time and how they connect to
others, as well as interior structures of that section.
* Come to open labs and have a TA prepared to work with me there if
needed on an individual basis. If your prof offers open labs (time
like office hours in the lab), take advantage of it.  If not then ask
for some office hours with either her or one of the TAs.
3.  Extended time on tests, test proctoring, etc.  I've never been one
to use a scribe before, but it might be helpful in the practical exams
while you're feeling the cadavers (assuming you're also using cadavers
in the labs).
4. Make sure tactile drawings are available whenever a structure
doesn't have a model to feel.  If possible get some time in open labs
or after class for a TA or the prof to show you the structure in the
cadavers as well.

My lab does practical exams, so a lot of it will be identifying
structures spatially in reference to each other.  In theory this
should also make the material for the lecture easier to learn.  I'd
highly recommend looking into using models or getting some if your
prof doesn't own them already.  Models won't just be useful for
you-they can be used again and again for other students.

I hope this helps.
