Untitled document
A successful student in Anatomy 58 should be able to:
1.  describe overall organization of human anatomy.
2.  describe anatomical structures and basic function of
   human systems studied from cellular to gross anatomy.
3.  Be able to identify and classify specific cells, tissues, organs, and
   their associated features within the human body.
4.  Apply appropriate laboratory skills germane to this course, including
   use of light microscope, observation and comparison of tissue
   structure and use of basic anatomical terminology.
5.  Communicate theoretical and specific knowledge of human anatomy
   effectively through written reports, essay exams and verbal
   discussion.
6.  Utilize appropriate laboratory resources, including laboratory
   materials, text and lab manual, reference books, models, laboratory
   specimens, histological manual and course syllabus to enhance study of
   histological and anatomical structures.
7.  Apply concepts related to human anatomy as they relate to each major
   body system and tissue.
8.  Apply theoretical and scientific knowledge of anatomical systems when
   analyzing, evaluating, or problem solving previously unseen or
   hypothetical structures.
