Learning Outcomeslthough this outcome best fits in SLO #2, mastery of this information is necessary for all outcomes, and indeed, for future careers in health sciences for those students selecting this field.

Changes

DetailsBased on discussions with the full-time faculty in Anatomy 25, a reconfiguration of the seating arrangements of the laboratory S347, was performed. The desks were brought closer together and visually-impacted desks were eliminated. This was done to foster more student interaction and to reduce anecdotally-related information regarding perceived poor student performance at those visually-impacted locations.
