You are to use PowerPoint notes, online materials, Adam Interactive Anatomy (AIA), Adam Interactive Physiology (AIP), laboratory manual, supplemental materials and your text to learn the course materials. Notes and online materials are available on my website as a link through WebCT for this course. AIA & AIP should be purchased along with textbook and lab manual but are also available in the Math Science Center in Science North 101 (Takoma Park Campus).
