Within this course, concepts from your M1 foundational anatomy will be reinforced and new concepts of head and neck anatomy will be introduced. You will attend 3 half days in the anatomy laboratory and one 2-hour discussion session. Below are our expectations from you in this course.

Review material and lab instructions before coming to lab
Be on time for the beginning of each lab (communicate with faculty if otherwise)
Honor the gift from each anatomical donor by being respectful in how you handle donors and the language you use in the lab
Make an effort to find every structure on the list
Keep your lab space tidy (complete cleaning checklist before leaving each day)
Wear appropriate lab clothing (e.g. scrubs, close-toed shoes, etc.) & PPE (mask). Disposable gowns, eye protection, and additional masks will be provided in the lab.

Remediation for Sessions

In the event of an excused absence, please do both of the following to make up for the Lab:

Remotely:
- - Prepare lab session(s) as if you were attending
  - Go through the lab manual and answer all of the questions
  - Write down your own questions to review in lab when you are able to return
  - Reach out to your lab faculty for the week with any questions
In person (if possible):
- - Review all structures from the lab(s) that you miss on your own (either during the time of the lab session that you can attend or on your own time)
  - Arrange with your lab faculty to ask any remaining questions

In the event of an excused absence, please do one of the following to make up for the Discussion:

Option 1: Attend and Participate via Zoom
- - Arrange with your classmates to set up a device for you to attend the session via Zoom (use the following link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/99289554122, password = m2anatomy)
  - Expectations for participating over Zoom:
    - - Attend the call from a quiet location where your primary focus is participating in discussion
        Do not call while driving, walking, or performing other activities
      - When possible, turn your camera on and unmute your audio
Option 2: Remote Make Up
- - Write out answers to all 'questions to consider' at the bottom of each page for each case (1-6) and send this to m2anatomy@umich.edu. Note the questions are not listed on the pdf version, click the link for individual cases to view them.
  - Reach out to your discussion faculty for the week with any questions

Grading

Your final grade in the course will be determined by your efforts on the following:

Prelab video quizzes (you can take these as many times as you'd like and the highest grade will be displayed)
Preparation and participation for the Lab & Discussion sessions
Performance on the final assessment
- - 30 Questions: 20 written multiple choice questions + 10 identification questions with images
  - 60 minute time limit, open resource, 3 attempts
  - Only introduced concepts (head & neck anatomy) will be assessed

Based on the expectations within the surgery clerkship, most students will receive a 6.

While APS is pass/fail, surgery receives a narrative assessment, grades 1-9, and pass/fail from anatomy. To pass, you are required to:
- - Complete all prelab quizzes
  - Attend (or remediate) the Lab & Discussion sessions
  - Score >25 points (out of 30) on the final assessment
