Lecture Exams
There will be 4 lecture exams, each of which is comprehensive from the previous units. They will be
multi-format (multiple choice, matching, and fill-in). Each exam has 70 questions worth 2 points each,
for a total of 140 points. Each lecture exam will mainly cover the specific unit, but will also contain
some questions from the previous unit. There is no extra credit in lecture or lab.
Lecture Quizzes
There are a total of 9 lecture quizzes. Each one is 10 points, and all questions are multiple choice
(use a quiz strip). The lecture quizzes are given at the end of the lab period to enforce attendance.
You can drop your lowest 3 lecture quizzes but you cannot make up a missed quiz.
Lab Exams
There are four lab exams and they will be administered during your regular lab section. You will be
asked to identify structures on specimens, models, and slides. All lab exams are fill-in the blank.
Spelling counts…so be sure you learn to spell the name of the structure correctly as you learn to
identify it! There is no extra credit in lab. It takes several instructors many hours to set up a lab
exam, so you cannot make up a missed lab exam under any circumstances!
Lab Quizzes (Magrann Lab)
There are 2 lab quizzes worth 10 points each. The first one will be during the muscle unit, the second
one will be during the blood vessel unit.
You may NOT have your cell phone or other electronic device on your body during
a test or a quiz. They must be in a purse or backpack, out of sight, and away from
your reach. Having these items in your pocket or elsewhere within sight or within
reach will result in a zero score on that test or quiz, even if you say you are not
using them.
Course Student Learning Ooutcomes (SLO’s)

Attendance Policy:
Attendance in class and in lab is crucial to your success. You are expected to attend every class on
time! If you are tardy or absent, please do not disturb the class to find out where we are in the
lecture, or what you have missed. It is your responsibility to approach other students after class and
obtain missing material. Cell phones should be placed on silent mode or turned off during class time.
It is school policy that attendance in lab is mandatory until 10pm, so attendance will be taken and a
lab quiz will be given at that time.
Lecture format:
Lecture outlines are posted online on my website. Students should print the transcripts and bring
them to lecture so they can just add a few notes when I give you study tips. Printing the PPT slides is
not necessary. All quiz and exam test questions are contained within the flashcards posted on my
website.
Lab format:
In lab, we will be dissecting cats and sheep organs (heart, eye, brain), observing human cadavers
and models, viewing histology slides under the microscope, and becoming familiar with the structures
associated with feline and human anatomy. In order to optimize the limited time we have for lab, it is
very important that you read the lab exercise before attending lab. Please be certain you come
prepared and that you have all the materials necessary for lab before lab begins. If you do not
have the proper safety attire (lab coat and closed toed shoes), you will be dismissed from
lab and not allowed to participate.
Drop policy:
If you decide to drop the class, it is your responsibility to make sure that you drop the course in
Banner. If you stop attending and do not drop, you will be given the grade you earned, which is
usually an F. This grade remains on your transcript even if you retake the class in the future. Please
don’t put yourself into this position!! Drop deadlines are posted on line in the class schedule.
Last date to add: September 6, 2013
Last Date to drop without a "W": September 8, 2013
Last Date to drop with a "W": November 1, 2013
Accommodation of Disabilities:
Reasonable accommodations will be made for students with disabilities. Please consult with me
immediately if you have a documented disability with DSPS so that we can arrange for
accommodations.
Mt. San Antonio College Policy on Student Cheating
POLICY:
 No dictionaries, reference materials, notes, or programmable calculators may be used during
any exam or quiz unless authorized by the professor.
 No electronic devices, of any type, may be used during any exam or quiz unless
authorized by the professor. Electronic devices include, but are not limited to: cell
phones, PDAs (personal digital assistants, earphones, cameras, MP3 players,
translation devices, and electronic dictionaries.
 No talking, signalling, sharing of note cards, calculators or other materials is allowed
during any exam or quiz, unless authorized by the professor.
 Only the materials required or authorized for an exam or quiz should be taken out of your
notebook, backpack, pocket, or purse. All other materials should be put away as instructed,
including electronic devices.
 Students may not leave the classroom during an exam or quiz unless authorized by the
professor. If a student leaves the room without permission, the test or quiz will be forfeited
at that time.
 This policy will be strictly enforced by all professors in all classes taught in the Department.
CONSEQUENCES:
 A single act of cheating or academic dishonesty in any form will result in a zero on that test.
 Action taken by the professor will be consistent with the college policy on cheating and
academic dishonesty. In addition, a report regarding the violation will be submitted to the
Director of Student Life for further action, which may also result in further disciplinary action,
including, but not limited to suspension or expulsion from the college.
WHAT IS CHEATING?
Some examples of cheating include, but are not limited to:
 Having a cell phone out during an exam or quiz
 Plagiarism, which is the use of materials authored by another person or obtained from a
commercial source or the use of passages without proper acknowledgment.
 Having or using unauthorized materials during any exam or quiz
 Notes concealed in or written on clothing, hats, or skin (as examples).
 Looking at another student’s work during any exam or quiz.
 Changing answers on a returned exam in order to claim there had been a grading error.
 Sharing any content of exams or quizzes with individuals who have not yet taken it.
 Removing an exam or quiz from the classroom without the professor’s approval.
 Taking photos of exams, quizzes, completed Scrantons®, or exam keys.
 Turning in work that was generated by other individuals or by the same individual but in a
prior semester, including but not limited to: lab report data, lab report or homework
questions, homework assignments, and extra credit assignments.
 Allowing another student to look at your exam or quiz, or allowing another student to copy
your homework, lab reports, or other assignments. (If that work is duplicated you may also
receive the same penalties listed above for violation of the Biology Department Policy on
Cheating, and the college policy on cheating and academic dishonesty.)
 Falsifying documents, including signatures. If you are unclear about what constitutes
cheating in your class or for a particular assignment, please contact your instructor for
clarification before the assignment is due. Keep this policy for your records.
