GROSS ANATOMY LABORATORY STAFF
COURSE SCHEDULE (IN SYLLABUS)
GROSS ANATOMY TEXTBOOK (REQUIRED) Essential Clinical Anatomy(3rd ed.) by Moore & Agur
DISSECTOR (REQUIRED) Grant’s Dissector (14 ed.) by Tank
ATLAS (REQUIRED) Atlas of Human Anatomy (4th ed.) by Netter
MEDICAL DICTIONARY (RECOMMENDED) Dorland’s Illustrated Medical Dictionary or Stedman’s Medical Dictionary
LAB SUPPLIES • Dissection Instruments • (2 kits per table) • Surgical Gloves • Lab Coat or Scrub Suit • Safety Glasses
COURSE GOAL AND LEARNING OBJECTIVES
The principal goal of the course is for students to acquire a sound knowledge of the gross anatomy of the head and neck.
APPROACHES USED TO • ACHIEVE COURSE GOAL • Lectures • Laboratory Dissection • Case Studies
LECTURES • Will provide a thorough, well-organized • treatment of the anatomy of a particular • region (a list of learning objectives • precedes each lecture outline in the syllabus) • Important anatomical facts and concepts will be covered • All lectures are in Room C, and will last • ~ 50 minutes

CONDUCT IN THE LABORATORY
CASE STUDIES (Group Discussions) (Groups A & B) Purpose is to help students understand the relevance of anatomy to their future clinical practice
Students are expected to attend ALL lectures, labs and case studies Active participation in the lab (engaging in the dissection process) is ESSENTIAL for every student

GRADING SCALE (%) A = > 90 B = 80 - 89 C = 70 - 79 F = < 70
COMPETENCY EXAM Students who earn a grade of 60 – 69 in the course will be allowed to take a competency exam. This exam will be comprehensive and will include both a lab and a written component. If a student earns a grade of > 70 on this exam, he/she will receive the lowest possible passing grade for the course (ie, 70 = C).
In the event that a student receives a grade of F for the course, he/she will be required to take a remedial course in head and neck gross anatomy during the summer.
ANATOMY STUDY TIPS • Anatomy is a visual science. Try to visualize • your cadaver dissection and use an atlas when • studying notes at home. • Try to put the anatomical information you learn • in a clinical context (eg, what would be the • deficits if this nerve were cut, or this artery • ligated?) • Periodically use a systemic approach to studying anatomy • (eg, review all of the branches of the trigeminal nerve) • Study with a group (eg, review lab dissections • with classmates) • Focus attention on the nervous system • Keep up with dissections and study lecture notes daily
