Fall 2013 (CRN 35514) Joanne Oellers COURSE PURPOSE Human Biology is a general education course recommended for students with pre-nursing or health professional goals, but anyone is welcome. Studying the universal processes of living systems from chemistry to cells, we lay a foundation for our exploration of human organ systems, human origins, and discussions of our relationship to the environment. Through your experiences in Human Biology, you will discover the scientific basis for concepts you may have already experienced. You will likely come to see the world differently and gain an appreciation for all life. Welcome!

GENERAL
COURSE
INFORMATION
General
Format
Hybrid
class
Many
people
who
have
never
taken
an
online
course
mistakenly
assume
it
will
take
less
time
than
a
traditional
on-campus
class.
This
is
not
true.
An
online
or
hybrid
class
is
certainly
as
demanding
as
any
other
class.
The
only
time
savings
you
might
expect
is
that
you
would
have
spent
commuting
to
and
from
campus.
In
general,
this
hybrid
class
builds
and
expands
in
class
the
work
you
do
outside
of
class
and
is
a
combination
of
face-to-face
meeting
and
Web-based
work.
I
design
the
course
to
give
you
opportunities
for
classroom
interaction
along
with
self-directed,
independent
work.
For
the
most
part,
our
face-to-face
meetings
consist
of
laboratory
activities.
Nevertheless,
we
may
still
want
to
clarify
concepts,
discuss
current
events,
or
explore
your
questions.
Your
Web-based
work
includes
reading,
watching
online
presentations,
utilizing
various
learning
tools,
studying
the
material,
completing
written
assignments.
At
the
beginning
of
each
week,
the
materials
for
the
upcoming
week
will
be
ready
for
you.
To
do
well,
expect
to
spend
at
least
7.5
hours
a
week
on
the
course
outside
of
class.
The
actual
amount
you
use
depends
on
your
experience
and
efficiency.
General

grading
is
not
an
option
for
this
course
as
it
is
part
of
the
Arizona
General

(AGEC).
A
failing
grade
may
reflect
lack
of
attendance,
effort,
or
points,
or
result
from
non-compliance
with

General
YC
Policy
Students

another
school-sponsored
activity
or
compelling
personal
reason
must
make
prior
arrangements
with
me.
All
course
work
must
be
made
up
as
directed.
A
student
who
does
not
adhere
to
instructor
and
College
attendance
requirements
may
be
dropped
from
the
course
as
defined
in
the
Yavapai
College
General
Catalog.
For
Fall
Semester
2013,
the
student-initiated
drop
date
is
Tuesday
10/15.
Students
are
responsible
for
dropping
a
class
through
the
self-service
option
on
the
myYC
Portal.
If
you
have
not
withdrawn
from
a
class
by
the
student-initiated
drop
date,
you

you
have
about
the
class,
your
attendance,
or
progress.
I
want
to
help
you
succeed
and
might
have
options
to
offer
you.
If
you
are
absent
three
or
more
times
by
Tuesday
10/1,
and
you
have
not
responded
to
calls,
emails,
or
assignments,
I
will
assume
you
no
longer
wish
to
be
part
of
the
class,
and
you
will
be
withdrawn.

to
submit
Pre-class
Assignments
may
count
as
absences.
It
is
your
responsibility
to
regularly
assess
your
progress,
communicate

about
any
concerns,
and
ultimately,
make
the

Student
Orientation
to
Online
Learning
By
Tuesday,
September
3,
you
must
have
participated
in
the
Student
Orientation
to
Online
Learning
(online
or
in-person).
Visit
this
link
to
find
both
types
of
orientations:
http://www.yc.edu/v4content/teaching-and-elearning-support/students/default.htmFor
evidence,
please
write
a
150
to
200-word
reflection
on
your
experience.
Include
whether
your
learning
experience
was
online
or
in-person,
comments
about
what
surprised
you,
descriptions
of
useful
tips,
and
anything
else
you
want.
I
will
post
the
in-person
schedule
when
available.
Another
option
is
to
convince
me
(in
the
same
number
of
words)
that
your
skills
are
sufficient
to
succeed
in
a
hybrid
class.
Due
on
your
blog
by
noon
9/3.
Pre-class
Assignments
There
are
a
number
of
short
written
assignments.
These
assignments
must
be
completed
prior
to
a
particular
class
meeting
and
posted
to
your
blog
site
,
except
for
the
first
one
that
you
will
submit
as
an
Assignment
in
Blackboard.
The
nature
of
these
assignments
varies.
You
might
be
asked
to
add
a
post
listing
the
key
points
in
a
video
or
pose
questions
that
came
up
for
you.
At
times,
I
may
ask
you
to
answer
other
students
or
quiz
questions,
respond
to
a
video,
current
event,
or
science
article.
No
credit
will
be
given
for
late
work.
Failure
to
submit
Pre-class
Assignments
may
count
as
absences.
Your
Blog
A
blog
is
really
a
simple
Web
site.
Please
develop
a
blog
or
have
an
established
blog
ready
for
class
by
8/30.
Let
me
know
if
you
need
help.
Your
blog
will
be
public,
so
you
may
use
an
alias
for
your
name,
however
your
classmates
and
I
must
know
who
you
are.
I
will
collect
and
share
links
in
a
blog
roll.
Labs
The
laboratory
exercises
take
many
formsmicroscope
use,
problem
solving,
and
analysis
of
data
to
name
a
few.
Lab
time
is
collaborative,
so
I
expect
to
see
you
sharing
results,
but
answers,
drawings,
and
written
discussions
must
be
your
own
and
submitted
separately
and
in
your
unique
style
even
if
you
work
in
a
group.
Prior
to
a
lab
period,
please
read
the
lab
exercise
provided.
Completed
labs
are
due
one
week
after
we
complete
the
in-class
portion
of
the
exercise;
no
labs
will
be
accepted
after
then.
Exams
Ive
planned
three
in-class
examinations
during
the
semester.
Each
exam
includes
multiple
choice
questions,
vocabulary
matching,
and
short
answer
questions.
You
should
prepare
by
using
9
textbook
companion
Website
Practice
Quizzes,
Concept
Review,
Test
Yourself
multiple
choice
quizzes,
and
Quick
Checks
throughout
the
chapters.
This
material
provides
you
a
partial
basis
for
understanding
the
material
for
quizzes
and
exams.
Do
not
assume
the
wording
will
be
identical
on
assessments.
You
will
be
prepared
for
exams
if
following
study
guidelines
and
participating
in
class
activities.
I
provide
a
study
guide
for
each
exam,
and
you
may
bring
to
the
exam
a
3
x
5
card
with
notes
on
both
sides.
Students
may
not
keep
exams.
Afterward,
we
will
have
a
general
discussion
and
review
of
material,
and
you
can
view
your
exam
at
a
scheduled
meeting
time.
Genetics
Project
There
will
be
no
final
exam.
Instead,
I
assign
projects
in
order
for
students
to
apply
concepts
of
genetics.
I
intend
these
projects
to
encourage
demonstration
of
learning
in
a
creative
fashion.
Details
are
forthcoming.
No
Extra
Credit
There
will
be
no
extra-credit
opportunities
in
this
course.
