questioning, case analysis, concept mapping, and a scholarly paper related
to pathophysiology. The faculty’s website will have all the PowerPoint
presentations and lecture notes available to students. The website is:

TESTING:
There will be NO special administration of major examinations (Prelims,
Midterm, and Final). Only those approved by the Dean to have a special
examination will be allowed to take one. The test has to be taken within
one week of the scheduled exam. No appearance in the Prelim or Midterm
examination will result in a forced DROP.

QUIZZES:
There are 6 lecture quizzes during the semester given during the first 30
min of lecture. These will be announced. Quizzes contain multiple choice,
fill-in-the-blanks, short answers, and matching questions. If you come late
to lecture on these days you do not take the quiz. NO make-up quizzes
will be given unless permission for a special consideration has been
granted by the Dean due to illness or grave circumstances. The missed
quiz must be taken within one week from its regular schedule.
Case Analysis:
A case study of an individual with a pathological condition will be
provided. The student will answer the questions pertaining to the case
study.
Concept Map:
A concept map is a schematic device for organizing and representing
knowledge structures as a set of concept meanings related to one another.
They are pictures or graphic representations that allows learners to link,
differentiate and relate concepts to one another. Concept maps begin with
a main idea (or concept) and then branch out to show how that main idea
can be broken down into specific topics. The product will be evaluated
using the rubric, attached to this document. This assignment including
how to develop them will be discussed/illustrated in class. Additional

Pathophysiology
Paper:
This paper will be limited to 3 pages. You will be assigned a specific topic
in Pathology and you will need to develop the paper with the following
areas included: A brief discussion of the pathophysiology of the disease,
etiology, signs & symptoms, diagnostic procedures, medical management
and implication to either Physical Therapy or Occupational Therapy. The
evaluation tool for this paper is included in the appendix of this document.
In the spirit of saving the environment, this assignment must be paperless
and should be submitted electronically to tomas.madayag@gmail.com.
Once received, I will send you a confirmation email. If you do not receive
a confirmation within 24 hours of submission, it is an indication that I did
not receive your work.
