III. COURSE OBJECTIVES:
The lab component of Bio 101/102 is to give students an opportunity to visualize and get
hands-on experience about the topics learned from the lecture. Students will use models,
pictures and sometimes computer programs to reinforce concepts from the lecture.
IV. EXAMINATION
There will be three lab practical tests of equal credit of 50 points and 5 pop quizzes with
5 points each. Students are also expected to finish all figures in lab manual, which sum up
to 25 point. All lab activities including pop quizzes, lab tests and completion of figures
together contribute 15% of the total credit for Bio 102. No lab test, nor pop quiz can be
made up.
All examinations will be conducted under close-book, close-note, and close-neighbor
condition. Cheating will be severely punished.
V. GRADE
