    Debriefing

    5 minutes

    A look back at the second full season of this podcast is an example of the kind of debriefing that we can be doing as faculty—and which can make us feel really good about what we're doing.

  • The Prerequisite Problem in the A&P Course | Episode 61

    Host Kevin Patton discusses issues caused by our expectations of anatomy & physiology course prerequisites and answers the question: which prerequisites work best? Recent reports of a bone-marrow recipient with donor DNA in his semen prompts a brief review of what happened. Wi-Fi fields can produce biological effects. What are they and how does Wi-Fi produce them?

    Bone Marrow Genome in Transplant Recipients

    7 minutes

    Recently, the case of a bone marrow transplant recipient made the rounds. Reports mentioned that his semen contained only DNA from his donor, with none of his own DNA, which sounds weird—and perhaps not really possible. We explore what really happened—and how we might use this story to teach A&P.

    Memorization has gotten a bad rap recently. Lots of students, and even some educators, say that being able to reason is more important than knowing facts; and besides, why bother committing things to memory when you've got Google? My response to this - after I've finished inwardly groaning - is that of course reasoning is important, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't know facts as well. It's not like you have to choose between one or the other. Besides, facts give you a foundation on which to reason about things. (Stefanie Weisman)

    Introduction to Flashcards

    12 minutes

    A recent blog post from learning scientist Pooja Agarwal about flashcards got me thinking about how underappreciated this powerful study tool is. So off we go on a multi-part series (spanning more than one episode) we could call "Flashcards Unleashed." In this segment, some basics:

    1. Language learning —There are 3,957 glossary entries in Kevin's 2-semester A&P textbook, but even trimming that down to 1,000 new terms, students have 35 new terms to master every week.
    2. Leitner System and PALS: Patton's Adaptation of the Leitner System
