Course Critical Performance and Learning Outcomes
|
Critical Performance
By the end of this course students will be able to accurately identify
each of the bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, nerves and arteries of
the lower quadrant.
Learning Outcomes
To achieve the critical performance, students will have demonstrated
the ability to:
1. Describe the structure of the bones, joints, ligaments, inert
tissues and muscles of the lower quadrant in an effective manner.
2. Identify each of the bones, ligaments, joints, inert tissues and
contractile tissues of the lower quadrant on artificial models.
3. Reproduce a technique to evaluate the strength of all muscles in
the lower quadrant.
4. Describe the function of each of the bones, joints, ligaments,
inert tissues and muscles of the lower quadrant in an effective
manner.
5. Palpate each of the bones, ligaments, inert tissues and muscles of
the lower quadrant on the human body.
6. Describe the neural pathways and innervations to the muscles of the
lower quadrant effectively.
7. Reproduce a technique to evaluate the integrity of the ligaments
and inert tissues of the lower quadrant.
8. Describe the arterial pathway and supply for the lower quadrant
effectively.
9. Use effective and accurate terminology when describing anatomical
structures.

Evaluation Plan
Students demonstrate their learning in the following ways:
|
Written Exams Practical Exams Assignment
Midterm 20% Midterm 20% 10% (2x5%)
Final 25% Final 25%
Total 100%
The final grade will be a combined total of the written examination
mark, laboratory practical and assignments. A passing grade of
minimum 60% (C) is required in both written and practical components
to successfully complete the course.
Laboratory Practical:
Practical exams consist of students identifying, palpating and testing
a number of selected anatomical structures on a class partner.
Written Examinations:
Written test questions will cover class lectures, textbook assignments
and laboratory sessions.
Attendance:
Attendance is expected at all planned classes and laboratory
experiences. Specific circumstances not withstanding, field placements
should not interfere with attendance.
Laboratory class dress must include loose shorts and T-shirt, shoes
and socks. Students should change for every practical class unless
informed ahead of time.
TEST AND ASSIGNMENT PROTOCOL
To encourage behaviours that will help students to be successful in
the workplace and to ensure that students receive credit for their
individual work, the following rules apply to every course offered
within the Faculty of Applied Health & Community Studies.
1. Students are responsible for staying abreast of test dates and
times, as well as due dates and any special instructions for
submitting assignments and projects as supplied to the class by the
professor.
2. Students must write all tests at the specified times. Missed tests,
in-class activities, assignments and presentations are awarded a
mark of zero. If an extension or make-up opportunity is approved by
the professor as outlined below, the mark of zero may be revised by
subsequent performance. The penalty for late submission of written
assignments is a loss of 10% per day for up to five business days
excluding weekends and statutory holidays), after which, a grade of
zero is assigned. Business days include any day that the college is
open for business, whether the student has scheduled classes that
day or not.
3. Students who miss a test or in-class activity or assignment or
fail to submit an assignment on time due to exceptional
circumstances are required to notify their professor in advance
of the class whenever possible. A make-up test may be supplied
for students who provide an acceptable explanation of their
absence and/or acceptable documentation explaining their absence
(e.g., a medical certificate). All make-up tests are to be
written at a time and place agreed to by the professor and the
student upon the student's return. Alternately, students may be
given an opportunity to earn the associated marks by having a
subsequent test count for the additional marks. Similarly,
exceptional circumstances may result in a modification of due
dates for assignments.
4. Unless otherwise specified, assignments and projects must be
submitted at the beginning of class.
5. Students must complete every assignment as an individual effort
unless, the professor specifies otherwise.
6. Since there may be instances of grade appeal or questions regarding
the timely completion of assignments and/or extent of individual
effort, etc., students are strongly advised to keep, and make
available to their professor, if requested, a copy of all
assignments and working notes until the course grade has been
finalized.
7. There will be no resubmission of work unless this has been
previously agreed to or suggested by the professor.
8. Students must submit all assignments in courses with practical lab
and field components in order to pass the course.

Academic Honesty
The principle of academic honesty requires that all work submitted for evaluation and course credit be the original,
unassisted work of the student. Cheating or plagiarism including borrowing, copying, purchasing or collaborating on
work, except for group projects arranged and approved by the faculty member, or otherwise submitting work that is not
the student's own violates this principle and will not be tolerated. Instances of academic dishonesty, including
assisting another student to cheat, will be penalized as detailed in the Student Handbook.
Students who have any questions regarding whether or not specific circumstances involve a breach of academic
honesty are advised to discuss them with the faculty member prior to submitting the assignment in question.
Discrimination and Harassment
Sheridan is committed to provide a learning environment that respects the dignity, self esteem and fair treatment
of every person engaged in the learning process. Behaviour which is inconsistent with this principle will
not be tolerated. Details of Sheridan's policy on Harassment and Discrimination are available in the Student Handbook.
