-
3.00 Credits
This course assists students in the exploration, study and practice of art therapy through reading, discussion, videotapes, in-class experiential exercises, and field trips. A three-credit internship accompanies this course.
-
3.00 Credits
Supervised clinical experience in community settings. Students observe, assist, and conduct sessions with children and adults with various disabilities. Prerequisite: ATH 301-302; for majors only.
-
4.00 Credits
An introductory level course presenting a broad survey of life from the molecular to ecosystem levels, with particular emphasis on the evolutionary development of life on Earth. Topics include the use of energy and materials by living systems, genetics, and the biogeochemical processes that underlie the earth's biomes. Three lecture hours and two laboratory hours per week.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of basic relational anatomic terminology in which the student learns how the musculoskeletal systems permit body movement, studies the structure of the cell membrane and its role in cellular input, output, and communication and understands the structure and functioning of the human central nervous system. Laboratory work demonstrates these concepts through anatomic study and physiologic testing. Three lecture hours and two laboratory hours per week.
-
4.00 Credits
A study of the endocrine organs and the hormones they produce, reproductive physiology, and the anatomic components of the abdomen and pelvis and their regional and systems relationships. Includes the physiology of the respiratory, digestive, and urinary organ systems and how they function to maintain homeostasis. Laboratory work demonstrates these concepts through anatomic study and physiologic testing. Three lecture hours and two laboratory hours per week.
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the diversity of plants found in and around the campus of Anna Maria College. Students spend most of their time in the field or in the laboratory working with the collected specimens. Students learn proper methods of collecting. preserving, and presenting plant specimens, and how to use a variety of resources to aid in their identification. Three lecture hours and two laboratory hours per week.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to nutrients as they relate to digestion, transport, absorption, storage, and energy metabolism. The course examines energy balance, weight management, and the physical and chemical composition of foods, including dietary adequacy and needs throughout the life cycle. It also addresses current nutritional issues and consumerism with application to personal nutritional status. Three lecture hours per week.
-
4.00 Credits
An examination of the principle ecological interdependencies of biological, chemical, and physical components and processes that characterize fresh water, salt water, groundwater and wetland systems. Three lecture hours and two laboratory hours per week.
-
4.00 Credits
An examination of the physical, chemical and biological processes that categorize terrestrial ecosystems, with particular emphasis on population and community dynamics, micro- and macro-habitats, and analytical techniques. Three lecture hours and two laboratory hours per week.
-
3.00 Credits
Students from all majors gain the basic scientific literacy to appreciate how the study of human genetics informs such varied fields as health, forensics, and human rights. Special emphasis is placed on understanding how our genes determine individual characteristics including normal variation and susceptibility to genetic disease. A case study approach, supported by discussion of genetics from the molecular to the population level, is used through much of the course to explore the application of this science to society's questions.
