Educational objectives | The course is aimed at learning four main aspects: 1. Organs and systems respond to precise functional needs; 2. The systems consist of several functionally interconnected organs; 3. The cardiovascular system, the nervous system and the endocrine system are responsible for the functional interconnection of different organs; 4. Organs are located into body cavities and other sites, and have precise topographical relationships with surrounding organs, and specific projections on skeletal elements and soft tissues. |
Prerequisites | Students should have knowledge of cytology (useful), cellular biology (important), histology (indispensable), fluid and gas dynamics (important) and organic chemistry (useful). |
Teaching methods | Face-to-face lessons with the use of powerpoint slides. Use of plastic models related to the topics developed at lessons. The education material presented during the lessons (with the exclusion of illustrations protected by copyright) will be made available to the students in electronic format (pdf files) and it does not replace the use of suggested books. The use of skeleton, various bones, anatomical models and reproductions of viscera, as well as video projections related to corpse dissections are integral part of the lessons. Practical exercises on macroscopy anatomy on anatomical pieces and microscopy anatomy in small groups will be also organized. |
Other information | Teacher is available for explanation. Please arrange an appointment contacting him by e-mail (guglielmo.sorci@unipg.it) or telephone (075 5858258) |
Learning verification modality | Written progress tests and final oral examination. Evaluation is made of: 1) two progress tests (one about two weeks before the end of the II semester of the first year and the second about one week before the end of the I semester of the second year). Each tests will consist of single-choice questions (execution time: 1.5 minutes/question) and will be evaluated in basis 30 (no penalty for wrong answers; the test is passed if the student reaches a score of at least 18/30); and 2) an oral examination with at least two questions on the subjects of the programme (average length of the oral exam: about 30 minutes). The progress tests are aimed at determining the degree of learning of the subjects covered in the lessons and the logical capacity of the student. The oral examination is aimed to verify the candidate’s knowledge of the discipline, and his/her speaking ability, logical ability and overall vision of the human anatomy. Students who have not passed the progress tests are evaluated with a written test with single-choice questions about the whole programme (execution time: 1.5 minutes/question; no penalty for wrong answers). Students who have obtained at least 18/30 are admitted to the oral examination. The final mark is the mean between the result of the written test and the result of the oral test.
