This is a 6-week fully online course (6-modules). Hopefully you will find this course to be stimulating, challenging, and…A LOT OF FUN!! It is designed for students who are motivated and serious about learning. I challenge you to be motivated tolearn as much as possible about the human body. Those of you interested in medical or health-related careers will learn in valuable information to prepare you for those careers and to help validate your interest in health science career paths.
To facilitate the communication outside of the class, Moodle is used for homework submission, quizzes, and online communication. Also, your HCS E-mail will be used for any other correspondence outside Moodle. It is your responsibility to check your account frequently for course announcements. Please do not send the instructor E-mail questions unless they are personal or confidential in nature; instead, please post your questions to the General Discussion forum on Moodle so the entire class can benefit from the answers. This is especially helpful for technical troubleshooting.

Delivery
Our Anatomy and Physiology course will be using Moodle for our method of delivery. I will post class materials such as (syllabus, reading, assignments, quizzes, etc.) and post announcements. Please be prepared to acquire important class materials and announcements through Moodle.
If you have questions about lessons or assignments, please post them in the discussion forum.

I have set up the forum so that I receive an e-mail as soon as anyone posts to the discussion forum, so my response will be timely.
Workload
Students are required to spend 7-10 hours on each module.
