Health Science 1

This one-semester course is intended to help you understand the basic structure and function of the human body. This course has 16 lessons organized into four units, plus four Unit Activities. Each lesson contains one or more Lesson Activities. This course will cover the structure of the human body systems and their functions. It will also cover diseases and medical procedures related to each body system. You will submit the Unit Activity documents to your teacher, and you will grade your work in the Lesson Activities by comparing them with given sample responses. The Unit Activities (submitted to the teacher) and the Lesson Activities (self-checked) are the major components of this course. There are other assessment components, namely the mastery test questions that feature along with the lesson; the pre- and post-test questions that come at the beginning and end of the unit, respectively; and an end-of-semester test. All of these tests are a combination of simple multiple-choice questions and technology enhanced (TE) questions.
