Credit points: 15
Subject outline
In this subject, students are introduced to the study of anatomy. An overview of anatomical terminology, basic tissue types and a variety of techniques used to visualize the human body will be given followed by a more detailed study of the anatomy of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Anatomical principles and terminology will be applied to relevant body systems and the concept of integrated function of multiple systems in one body region will be introduced through the study of the trunk. Students will be taught via a blended on-line and face-to-face approach.

Graduate capabilities & intended learning outcomes
01. Apply relevant anatomical principles to describe the structure and function of selected body systems.
- Activities:
- Blended learning activities related to the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Workshops 1-8 using models, skeletons, plastinated sections, surface anatomy and medical images plus team discussion to reinforce blended learning activities.
02. Apply relevant anatomical principles to integrate structure and function of body systems within an anatomical region.
- Activities:
- Blended learning activities related to the structures of the trunk. Workshops 9-12 using models, skeletons, plastinated sections, surface anatomy and medical images plus team discussion to reinforce blended learning activities.
03. Work collaboratively to critically evaluate information and develop well-reasoned explanations of real world case studies.
- Activities:
- Blended learning activities and workshops are based around 3 major enquiries. Students work in teams to complete workshop activities and have team-based assessment tasks to complete which develop their skills in interpretation and reporting of outcomes of their enquiry.
