*Note: You are not required to purchase recommended texts. I provide the above-listed texts merely as additional references and supplementary material. These are particularly useful if you choose to continue your study in musculoskeletal anatomy and anatomical imaging. Most of these texts are also available online through ClinicalKey Australia (UofA login required).

All lecture and Anatomy Resource session notes will be available on 'Canvas by Infrustructure' eLearning platform. All didactic lectures will be recorded using Echo360 and made available to students. A select number of Articulate Storyline online lectures will also be delivered. With respect to assessment, students will be required to complete two summative online quizzes in Canvas at the end of weeks 4 and 8, formatted to include multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank and hotspot questions, to test their understanding of the course content and to identify areas that require further revision prior to end of semester examination.

Content will be disseminated in the form of four major modules: (1) You will be introduced to the basic concepts of functional anatomy common to all regions of the musculoskeletal system, accompanied by the fundamentals in medical imaging data acquisition and interpretation. (2) Regional anatomy, including the osteology, arthrology and neural and muscular systems of the upper and lower limbs will then be presented on a comparative basis (i.e. shoulder vs. hip). In the second part of the semester, we will cover modules 3 and 4 constituting regional and functional anatomy of the trunk and the head and neck. 

Teaching sessions include at least two lectures per week (Mondays 11:10am and Tuesdays 11:10am), while in some weeks an additional lecture timeslot (Tuesdays 9:10am) may be utilized for revision, Q/A or office hours or summative assessment. Lectures will be delivered using a combination of didactic and online approaches. You will also be required to attend a two-hour laboratory session each week, which presents an opportunity to develop and test your understanding using models, human cadaveric prosections, skeletal material and medical images (conventional radiographs, MSCT, MRI); scheduled for Tuesday 3:10 – 5:00pm in the Ray Last Anatomy Laboratory (Dissecting Room) and S210AB. On two occasions throughout the semester, you will be required to complete online multiple-choice tests using the Canvas learning platform. Formative assessment will also be conducted within the anatomy practical sessions using cadaveric specimens, medical images and clinical examinations.

The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

As a 3 unit course, Functional Human Anatomy II will require approximately 12 hours of work per week, including lecture and practical attendance, completion of multiple-choice assessment, preparation of the group project and private study. This unit mandates an independent, self-directed learning approach - therefore it is an expectation that students come prepared to the anatomy resource sessions, having completed the relevent prereading and prelaboratory questions and activities. Since the group project is worth 15% of the overall assessment, it is expected that students will spend approximately 15-20 hours on this piece working with their peers on this multimedia presentation.

SGDE will feature through formative group learning activities integrated in the Anatomy Resource Sessions each week and an “Anatomical Dialogue” Group project. In each laboratory session, students will be required to complete a quiz constituting spotter and problem-based learning questions as a team of eight students, and submit their consensus answers to their demonstrator. The demonstrator will guide students through the answers, encourage discussion and provide clarifications regarding of the challenging questions and concepts. Some of the laboratory sessions will have additional tasks to be completed on a worksheet in your course manual (made available on Canvas prior to the session).

Further, students will be required to work in groups of five (self-allocated) to complete a multimedia “Anatomical Dialogue” group project, which aims to explain the regional and functional anatomy of a nominated injury or medical condition of the musculoskeletal system disseminated in the modern media/sports broadcasting. Students will be required to critically evaluate anatomical dialogue used or lack thereof, in the original voice-over of the commentator/presenter explaining the potential injury; and provide alternative dialogue to better explain the injury to a layperson and medical professional, in the form of a video submission. As part of the submission, students will be required to provide a confidential peer-assessment of each group member’s contribution to this project using Canvas, for normalisation of individual grades.

Assessment Item No.1: Multiple Choice Online Quizzes
Weighting: 5% each (cumulative 10%) - The weighting of 5% means that these are low-stakes tests, designed to reinforce the standards of the course and to uncover students’ weakness
Group or Individual: Individual
Description: Each online quiz will comprise of 10 questions, to be completed within a 15 minute time period under the ‘Assessment’ tab on the FHA Canvas site. Students will only be allowed one attempt at this assessment piece. Specifically, each quiz will examine the following content: 
Assessment Item No.2: Mid-Semester Practical Examination
Weighting: 15%
Group or Individual: Individual
Description: A mid-semester practical examination will be held during the allocated laboratory session in the Ray Last Anatomy Laboratory (SB02), which will cover a combination of lecture material, laboratory material and supplied online resources/readings. The format of the exam will contain approximately 20 stations, with 2-minute rotations between each; students will be required to answer short response questions using an amalgamation of cadaveric prosections, anatomical models and medical images. These questions may include identifying structures, explaining the function(s) of particular structures, labelling or drawing diagrams.

Assessment Item No.3: "Anatomical Dialogue" Group Project
Group or Individual: Group (Groups of 5-6)
Weighting: 15% [10% content accuracy; 5% storyboard/quality]
                 NOTE: 2.5% of the total grade will consider the ‘creativity’ and ‘originality’ of the presentation;
                           2.5% of the total grade will also be awarded for video quality i.e. filming/audio/formatting

General Objective: Demonstrate higher processing skills in the areas of synthesis and evaluation through an analysis of how anatomy is used and represented in our personal lives and future profession.

Description: Since sporting injuries are frequently discussed in modern media broadcasting and sports coverage, in groups students will be required to source video footage relating to an injury or medical condition relating to the musculoskeletal system. Using this footage students are required to (a) reflect and critique the anatomical dialogue used or lack thereof, in the original voice-over of the commentator/ presenter explaining the potential injury (i.e.comment on the accuracy, intended target audience, depth of the explanation); and (b) provide alternative dialogue to better explain the injury to a layperson with no anatomical training. In the second part of this project, students are required to provide an advanced overview of the regional anatomy i.e. muscle/nerve innervation/ vasculature likely to be affected with the injury and discuss the functional implications, targeted at medical professionals or anatomists.

Part B: As part of their submission, students will be required to provide a confidential peer-assessment of each group member’s contribution to this project using Canvas. Specifically, you will be required to rate each member’s contribution on a scale of 0 – 5 for each of three to six criteria; scores will be normalized to give a final group contribution weighting between 0-1, which will then be multiplied by the product/overall mark of the group.

NOTE: We encourage creativity and originality with this task! Note that the marking criteria will include the ‘use of creative writing style’ so it is important that you write in a manner that makes your story interesting to read/watch/listen to. More details on this assessment can be found under the assessment tab in Canvas.
