1 Neuroscience: Anatomy Course Overview

2 Lecture Teams Group 1 Nate Shaye Sarah C. Group 2 Erin P. Drew Kelcie Group 3 Corey Conor Alex Group 4 John Carolyn Amber Group 5 Mike Vickiey Jess Group 6 Kristen Andy Alicia Group 7 Sarah M. Kaela Diamond Group 8 Gennessa Chris Matt Group 9 Brett S. Krissy Joe Group 10 Erin C. Courtney Sean Group 11 Jake Annie Brett M.

3 Article – Alexia without Agraphia Read the abstract. 2 minute small group discussion. Does this article challenge what you know about the brain? Reference the article in your discussion.

4 Determining Pre-conceptions Discuss in groups of 3 for 10 minutes No need to record your thoughts 1. What kind of structure or organization does the brain have? 2. What is learning? 3. How many distinct sensations do humans perceive? 4. How does movement occur? Where do the signals originate? 5. What is consciousness? 6. What do you expect to learn in this course?

5 Organization of the Course Spinal Cord Brainstem/ Cerebellum Sensory Pathways Cerebrum Motor Pathways Cranial Nerves Other Pieces of the puzzle Overview and Development

6 Textbooks Lundy-Ekman, L., Fundamentals for Rehabilitation, 4th Ed. Elsevier. New York, NY, 2013. Bear, M., Connors, B. W., Paradiso, M. A. Neuroscience: Exploring the Brain, 3rd Ed. Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. Baltimore, 2007. Netter

7 Lecture Expectations Similar structure as Clinical Anatomy ◦Clickers ◦Completion of readings ◦Schedule and Wiki page

8 Lab Expectations Split into two halves ◦Neuroanatomy ◦Neurophysiology/Neurology Neuroanatomy ◦Term lists – models, real brains (no dissecting), images ◦Unstructured time ◦Quizzes – clicker, self-paced quizzes at the start of lab each week  ONLY PREVIOUS LIST MATERIAL ◦Wiki and schedule

9 Assessments Participation 10% Quizzes 10% each (3) Exams 20% each (2) Literature Review 20%

10 Participation- 10% of grade Everyone starts at 100%, deductions will be made for all of the following: ◦Clicker Questions – I will grade them this semester! (~100 questions throughout the semester =.01 points per question) ◦Absences – email me ahead of time for excused absence (I will likely need to refer back to email chains when calculating this grade at the end) ◦During class – I will be taking notes of any disruptions or lack of participation in class.

11 Quizzes – 30% of grade 3 in-class quizzes Grades will be averaged to count for 30% Multiple choice only, 20 questions

12 Exams – 20% of grade EACH One Midterm One CUMULATIVE Final ◦Information is so interdependent that it would be impossible to test the second half of content without the first half!

13 Literature Review– 20% of grade Formal Literature Review of a chosen topic Background, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion (change of wording is fine, it is the conceptual divisions that matter) Conduct research, analyze research

14 Literature Review details Wiki page Sign ups for presentation dates ◦Open Jan. 30 th at 12pm ◦Close Jan. 31 st at midnight ◦Email if you have any issues regarding sign ups Process will be guided

15 Nature of Neuroscience

16 Final Notes Lecture Study Guides For Monday – read ch. 1 of Bear and Lundy-Ekman ◦Monday we will discuss necessary concepts that will be used throughout the rest of the course Labs begin in Lab 203 Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week – bring Netter and/or Bear Open Lab with Carley will be Fridays 11-1 ◦Key will be available until the week before the Tag Test Carley will be in the Resource center Thursdays 3:15-4:15 My Office Hours are M & W after class, Th 9-10am

17 Questions Lecture structure? Lab structure? Literature Review?
