This course introduces the foundational concepts of human anatomy and physiology, including the body’s organization, homeostasis, and basic chemistry. Students will explore cells, tissues, and the structure and function of the integumentary, skeletal, and muscular systems using models to illustrate anatomical structures. The course also includes an introduction to healthcare careers and medical ethics, encouraging students to think critically about real-world applications. This is the first half of a two-part anatomy and physiology series.
This course uses our Knowledge, Skills, and Attributes (KSA) model to give students the opportunity to develop both real-world 21st Century Skills and Social and Emotional Learning Soft Skills to develop college and career readiness.
