How can I learn through song?

How can I be more productive?

Sometimes one extra degree of effort can separate the good from the great!

EXTRA CREDIT VIDEOS:

You can earn extra credit by making a music video about an anatomy topic. If you choose to make a video, you must provide me with information about the video beforehand. Please provide me with a hard copy of the topic you have chosen, the song you will sing, and the cast of students. Extra credit is due before the last week of the semester (not counting finals). Only one video per semester will be accepted. There will be no exceptions to these guidelines.

CLASS EXPECTATIONS AND DIRECTIONS:

1. CHECK THE WEBSITE DAILY.

The address is: kinganatomy.com

Look for any important announcements on the home page.

3. Due dates will be posted on the calendar, web home page, and in class.

5. Read the white board as you enter the classroom each day. It will tell you what you need for the day. Most day we will be working on classkick so you will need a chromebook.

6. Most of us are musical learners, so use the anatomy songs to help you learn. There is also a music video version of the song that can be viewed on classkick under each chapter title or on my youtube channel "learnthroughsong". Each year I hear students say that the songs really help and that they should have used them more regularly. Instead of that noise that you usually listen to, you can now cut down your study time by listening to these fabulous songs. lol

7. I will show short video clips in class to enhance the lessons. These videos are available to you on classkick under each chapter title.

8. The textbook is a college level book and we have many different editions. It is titled, Essentials of Human Anatomy and Physiology, for the Honors A&P students and Understanding Human Anatomy and Physiology, for the A&P students. The textbook is optional.
