Dear Neurologists,
Please read this article or listen to it here. Prepare a THINK PUZZLE EXPLORE for class discussion. THINK - What are your thoughts and responses to the article? PUZZLE - What seems/feels wrong or uncomfortable? EXPLORE - How can you benefit from this information? What do you want to tell your parents about it? or teachers? or that guy in project block?

Dear Neurologists,
Please study your How's Your Brain Study Sheet and practice this quizlet. For your POST, please select two terms from this quizlet that you can make connection with - Write a CONNECT - make at least two connections between these terms (in form, function, other . . . ) EXTEND - extend our knowledge/understanding of these terms with an analogy or observation or descriptive thinking - CHALLENGE - why should we know/think about our brain anatomy and function? Dear Biologists,
Please complete this work before class time on Thursday, February 1, 2018. This is a multipurpose home learning assignment. This slide show will provide you with some useful background knowledge about your endocrine system AND give you some practice with the Mini-Project Rubric on the 3rd page of this document. In you post please assess the slide show on first three parts of the rubric - the collaboration part doesn't apply. Give the slide show a 4,3, or 2 and briefly note why you did so. In class on Thursday you will have a general assessment on the knowledge part of the slide show. Expect questions on the function of the system overall and be able to identify some of the major glands and their functions. It would be good to know what 'negative feedback systems' are too! Dear Biologists,
In preparation for your mini-project on autoimmune diseases, this article by the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences, adds some new ideas to the article that we annotated in class. Please read the article/flyer and respond with a SENTENCE, PHRASE, WORD by class time on Thursday, January 25. Sentence with new information that you didn't already get from our other sources. Phrase that is the most concerning - in general or to you in particular - tell us why you chose this phrase. Word - that would lead your investigation of new ideas or concerns about this topic. Thank you! Dear Cardiologists in Training,
Please do this work before class time on Thursday, December 21 (our last class of this calendar year.) Read this kidshealth article on arrhythmias. Respond with your choice of one the following: 1 How could we use the 'tools' from the Pulse and Blood Pressure lab to diagnose arrhythmias? or 2 Create a list of questions for a young patient with evidence of heart arrhythmia to help you diagnose the cause of the problem. or 3 Create a list of 10 or so vocabulary terms from the article and their definitions that we (as a HAP class) should know. Thank you! Dear Cardiologists!
Please practice this heart anatomy quizlet. Post your choice of the most interesting, important, or confusing term. Support your claim with an explanation of why you say so! That's all! Hello Biologists!
Please complete this work before class time on Thursday, November 16. Read and study this online text up through the Figure 2: Embryonic Origins. Practice this quizlet. Please post - 1 How will you remember and be able to apply this information as we continue our studies of the human body? 2 What connections can you make to this new information? Please complete this thinking and learning before class time on Thursday, November 2. Dear Biologists,
Here is the link to the CRISPR video that we watched together on October 26. Here is an excellent article about CRISPR from Harvard and here is a CRISPR basics quizlet. For your weekly post, please choose one future application for CRISPR in the lab, industry, or medicine that you think is important. Why do you think so? (That's all.) You know when you will see the quizlet again . . . Reminder: Home Learning is assigned every Thursday and due the following Thursday at class time. HL is related to and supporting our studies and projects. Late work will be accepted for one week only. After that, please still do the home learning for the learning and also to show good faith and intention to improve your habits of work. Dear Biologists,
I was concerned by last week's challenge and change discussion. This week's home learning is asking you to rethink incremental change, methods for supporting change, and accountability for sustaining change. These are all simple ideas, but difficult to transform from idea to action. You are divided into four groups by last name. All groups are assigned the technical medical article excerpt on the Integrated Theory for Change. It is difficult to read and interpret, but you can do it. The second article is different for each group and it is a more popular culture/blog type interpretation of incremental change. Both articles are useful, valuable, and based in research, but the presentation of information is very different, because the audiences are different. Read and analyze the information in the two articles and apply the ideas to your Health Fair Project Challenge. For your HL please write about and be ready to discuss the following questions. Use your own Health Fair Project for examples and applications of new knowledge from the articles. 1 . Provide at least two examples of possible steps for incremental change for your Health Fair Project. 2 . What/who and how could those incremental changes be supported by our culture/social forces (friends, family, school, etc.)? 3 . Who/how could hold us/others accountable for those incremental changes? 4 . Provide supporting statements/references for your answers from both articles. For the purposes of this HL you may 'copy/paste' quotations, but you must state which article they are from and what you are using them to support. GROUPS AND ARTICLE LINKS 1 Bartol through Fierro Integrated Theory for Change and Running Example 2 Finley through Jones Integrated Theory for Change and Reach Your Goals More Quickly with Incremental Change 3 Jordi through Krentz Integrated Theory for Change and Incremental change for children 4 Martinez through Williams Integrated Theory for Change and Steps of Change Dear Public Health Workers! (Well, you are because of your work on the Health Fair.)
Please watch this video! and then practice this Quizlet. Who knows, maybe this quizlet will appear again . . . on Thursday. Post the term from the quizlet that you think is the most important OR the most confusing OR the most amazing. Thanks. |
