FOURTH TERM ANATOMY PROJECT:

As part of your fourth term grade, every student will select one organ(*) of the body and complete a project on it, as follows:
• You must describe both the structure and the function(s) of the selected organ, and how they relate to one another.
• If the organ has multiple parts, or interesting structures at different size levels, you should describe all of them.
• Your project may consist of any one of the following:
  • A poster, suitable for posting on the wall, with bibliographic references, or
  • A PowerPoint presentation, suitable for delivery to the class, with bibliographic references on the final slide, or
  • A paper of 3 or more pages, with bibliographic references.
• In each case, at least 3 bibliographic references are required (more if you wish, no upper limit).
• All projects should be illustrated, preferably in color.
• A project can be either an individual project or a joint project.
  • A maximum of two students may collaborate on a joint project.
  • If a joint project includes a PowerPoint presentation, both students must be part of the presentation.
• (*)Because the brain is such a complex organ, students interested in the brain should choose ONE of the following parts:
  • Cerebral cortex
  • Corpus callosum
  • Basal nuclei
  • Pineal body
  • Hippocampus
  • Thalamus
  • Hypothalamus
  • Midbrain
  • Cerebellum
  • Medulla
• Projects will be due on Tuesday, April 27, right after break. In the case of a PowerPoint presentation,
  the presentation must be emailed to me by 6:00 p.m. on that day, for possible presentation to the class later in the week.
