Lessons in the classroom with the support of images, video and plastic (skeleton and organs). Laboratory lesson with practice activities on the preparation of biological samples for microscopic observation and slides study.
The teaching method will see all the lessons held in attendance.

Learning checks in the laboratory, during practical activities and in the classroom during the course

Students with physical disabilities, Learning Disabilities or Special Education Needs can request specific services and tools via the Staff Sviluppo e Coordinamento Carriere e Servizi alle Studentesse e agli Studenti, consulting the University webpage: https://www.uniupo.it/en/services/services-students-physical-or-learning-disabilities

Students with disabilities, learning disabilities or special education needs, once they have contacted the University Staff, can refer to the tutor in charge of the course to define the examination modalities, concerning academic aspects.

Student athlete have the possibility of agreeing with the lecturer on a different exam date in the same session

Written test in mid course (optional) with multiple choice questions on topics: Generality; Microscopic Anatomy; Skin; Bones-Joints-Muscles; Hearth and vessels. Final oral examination. The test will be evaluated in thirty and considered as a third of the final examination. When not passing the test in progress, the arguments listed above will be asked with the rest of the program at the Oral examination. Evaluation of the acquired knowledges and of the ability to use them with comunicative skills and medical terms to describe the asked anatomical structure.
The evaluation of the familiarity with microscopic structures will demonstrate functional knowledge of the anatomical structure examined.
Together with the description of an anatomical structure it will be tested the ability of the student to connect various topics as a result of a depth and not only a mnemonic study.
