Important dates: September 11, 2015- First Biology class October 7, 2015- Biology Mid-term #1 October 12, 2015- Thanksgiving (no classes) November 6, 2015- Mid-term #2 November 11, 2015- Remembrance Day (no classes) November 18, 2015- Last day for voluntary withdrawal from course without academic penalty. December 9, 2015- Last Biology class December 11- 23, 2015- Fall term final examination period

Course organization: a) Lectures

Lectures are designed to clarify and explain essential concepts. Lectures will deal with information found primarily in the course textbook. You will be responsible for all material presented in class, in the Power Point slides, and in the textbook reading assignments. Power Point lectures will be posted on JUMP but you should be aware that these are outlines only, and that the actual lectures will be more detailed. You are strongly advised to take good notes during class. You are also strongly advised to attend lectures.

Since we cannot possibly cover all the information found in the text, the lectures will be on selected topics. Further, though every effort to cover all the topics listed in this outline will be made, not all the topics listed in the outline may be covered. A brief lecture outline and assigned text page references are found below.

Lectures are held every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10:30 a.m. to 11:20 a.m. in 204 Armes.

b) TextbookThe course text is Campbell Biology: Concepts and connections, by Reece J. B. et al., First Canadian edition, Pearson Canada Inc. (2015).

The textbook is required.

All of the section numbers given in the lecture outline refer to this text. The readings given contain much more information than we will cover in the lectures, but the readings will enrich your knowledge about the subjects that we will cover in class. You will also note that we are covering only a portion of the textbook. We will study Units One and Two in detail and Unit Three in less detail. Though lectures do not extend beyond Chapter 15, material from later chapters may be included to supplement lectures.

Appendix 12.

c) Course Grading

i. Tests and Examinations The emphasis will be on material covered in lectures, but the text readings are also important. You will be responsible for any material discussed in class (including any material presented on PowerPoint slides and any material I present, whether spoken or written on the board/over-head) and any material that is part of your assigned readings. Mid-term #1 will examine lecture and reading material covered up to the end of CH 5: Cellular function. Mid-term #2 will examine lecture and reading material covered from CH 6: How Cells Harvest Chemical Energy to the end of CH 9: Patterns of Inheritance. The final examination is cumulative and will cover all course material with emphasis on material not previously tested. All examinations will be Multiple Choice in style. Please also note that you will need an HB pencil to fill in the answer sheet. Students will be asked for identification when writing a test or examination. No cell phones, computers or other unauthorized materials are allowed during examinations. Any student found guilty of contributing to or cheating in examinations will be subject to serious academic penalty. Please see: http://umanitoba.ca/faculties/science/student/webdisciplinedocuments.html,for further information. Please also note, that if you miss a test or the final exam, you will be required to provide documentation that is valid and verifiable and that supports the reason you were absent, in order to write a make-up test or deferred final exam. An example of such documentation is a physician’s note.

ii. Schedule of Tests and Exams Mid-term #1 October 7 (Wednesday), 2015; in class 25%

Mid-term #2 November 6 (Friday), 2015; in class 25%

MASTERINBIOLOGY ASSESSMENT On MasteringBiology you will see a total of 11 assignments based on the lecture material. These assignments are formative and not for credit and therefore not required. However, the assignments are designed to help guide you through the material and keep you on track. Completion of these assignments will help you achieve a better grade in Biology 1010. Online assignments are a good way to test your own knowledge and understanding. You will also have 10 quizzes to complete on MasteringBiology over the term. These quizzes are mandatory and summative and will account for 10% of your final grade. Quizzes will become available ON the date indicated in the schedule below for 24 hours. Within this 24-hour window (12:00 AM – 11:59 PM), you must login to MasteringBiology and complete the quiz. Failure to do so before midnight will result in a grade of zero for that quiz. Do not begin a quiz too close to the deadline (i.e., 11:52 PM), as you may not have enough time to complete it. No extensions or make-up possibilities will be given for any quiz. Your best 8 (of 10) quizzes will be averaged and used to calculate your mark out of the possible 10% of your final grade.

LECTURE OUTLINE & TEXTBOOK REFERENCES: During the course you will encounter topics, which the textbook covers in greater detail than the lectures, while in other areas the lecturer may expand upon the textbook. Although classes do not strictly adhere to the order of the text, I do consider it essential reading. Students who expand upon each topic by reading will understand and perform better on examinations.

Modules in parentheses are topics covered in Biology 1000 and are very useful review. They include background information essential to the understanding of the concepts discussed in class. Very little time will be devoted to these modules in class, however, you are expected to understand this information.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

I missed a MasteringBiology quiz, what can I do? In short, nothing. There will be no make up quizzes on MasteringBiology. To this end, only the best 8 of 10 quiz marks will be used in the calculation of your final mark. The quiz you just missed will be one of the two that isn’t counted.

Should I read the textbook for the exam?

Absolutely! The exam will be based largely on the lecture material. However, reading the text offers an alternative explanation for the concepts you are expected to know. It also includes other examples to illustrate concepts. As such, reading the indicated modules will undoubtedly help you succeed in Biology 1010.

If I have a conflict with the midterm, what happens?

In summer session, there is very little chance that you will have a valid conflict with the scheduled midterm date. If, however, you feel you do, see us as soon as possible. If the exam conflicts with your work schedule, we expect you to reschedule your shift to sit the exam. If this is impossible, we require a letter from your employer on company header explaining that your shift cannot be changed. Bring this to documentation to the main Biological Sciences office in 212 Biological Science Building.

If I miss the midterm, what happens?

If you have valid documentation the value of the midterm will be prorated to the final exam. If you do not have appropriate documentation, a mark of zero will be given for the midterm.

If I miss the final, what can I do?

The only thing you can do in this situation is contacting your home faculty. They are the only body that can grant a deferred exam. Be ready to present your valid documentation to them.

3 VIDEOS All of the sections are taught by video. The video format is used to ensure a uniform

presentation to all students in a very large class. Instructors can put more effort into lecture production when they don’t have to repeat the same lecture to numerous sections. This gives them the time to visit the labs to chat with students informally and answer questions about the course. It also gives students greater access to the lectures and greater flexibility in viewing them. If a lecture is missed, or if you which to watch a DVD it can be viewed individually in library. A problem with the video format is the lack of immediate student feedback or questions. You will have to jot down your questions and ask them later, either in the Instructor’s office, or when you next see him/her in the laboratory. Although the Coordinator does check the lecture rooms for problems, the lectures are largely unsupervised. You must be quiet in class so that all students can benefit from the lecture. Students found to be disruptive will be warned once and then ejected from the room. Once ejected, a student will not be allowed to continue in the course without a letter from the Dean or Director of his/hers Faculty of School.

ATTENDANCE LECTURES: Punctual attendance is expected. Attend only in the section to which you have been assigned. LABORATORIES: Attendance at laboratories is mandatory. Attendance will be taken by the laboratory TA during each laboratory 2 hours into the class time. Students must be in attendance for a minimum of 2 hours. Students who miss more than 2 out of 8 labs, without a documented reason, during the regular session shall receive a grade of F for BIOL 1020 Biology 1.

STUDENT EVALUATION

The final grade in BIOL 1020 will be based on the following:

1. Mastering Biology Quizzes Portion of course grade (best 8 out of 10) ------------------ 10% 2. In Laboratory Assignments 1 assignment, worth 1%, to be completed in each lab.

QUIZ DATES

GRADING SCHEME

On MasteringBiology you will see a total of 5 assignments based on Dr. Stacey’s material and 5 assignments based on Mr. Shaw’s material. These assignments are not for credit and therefore not required. However, the assignments are designed to help guide you through the material and keep you on track. Completion of these assignments will help you achieve a better grade in Biology 1020. Online assignments are a good way to test your own knowledge and understanding. You will also have 10 quizzes to complete on MasteringBiology over the term (5 based on Dr. Stacey’s material and 5 based on Mr. Shaw’s material). These quizzes are mandatory and will account for 10% of your final grade. Quizzes will become available ON the date indicated in the schedule below for 24 hours. Within this 24 hour window you must login to MasteringBiology and complete the quiz. Failure to do so before midnight will result in a grade of zero for that quiz. Do not begin a quiz too close to the deadline (Monday at midnight), as you may not have enough time to complete it. No extensions or make-up possibilities will be given for any quiz. Your best 8 (of 10) quizzes will be averaged and used to calculate your mark out of the possible 10% of your final grade.

Grades are assigned at the end of the year by converting your cumulative percentage mark into a letter grade, using the following table: 90 + - A+ 80 - 89 - A 76 - 79 - B+ 70 - 75 - B 60 - 69 - C+ 50 - 59 - C 46 - 49 - D 0 - 45 - F Very slight modifications of this scheme are sometimes made to compensate for a class average that may be judged to be too low or too high.

LABORATORY

MARKS Each exam has a laboratory section which contributes to the total exam mark but which will also be tabulated separately. You must achieve a "D" standard in the lab (15 correct out of 32 lab questions from the exams only for the year) to pass the course. If you score 14 or less out of the 32 lab marks you will receive a grade of F, regardless of your marks for the lecture questions.

IN LABORATORY ASSIGNMENTS

EXAM IRREGULAR-

ITIES

Diring each of the 8 labs you will complete a single sheet assignment and hand it in to your lab TA. This assignment MUST be your own work and based on the results and observations in the lab. Outside information (such as the internest) is not allowed. If you miss a lab you must do a make up lab that same week to recive this mark. If you are caught in a dishonest act during the course of an examination you will be reported to University authorities. Penalties may be imposed at the discretion of the relevant authorities.

POSTING OF ANSWERS AND

MARKS

The day after each of the three exams in the course, the answers will be posted in the first floor hallway of the Buller Bldg. As soon as the tests are marked, your mark will appear next to your student number at the same location. Take note of both your total mark and your lab mark and let us know (at 212B Biological Sciences Building) immediately if you think there has been a marking error.

LIBRARY DVD’s

FACULTY

Several copies of each video lecture will be made available in the Sciences and Technology Library (Machray Hall) immediately after each lecture has been shown in the lecture sections.

QUESTION PERIOD

HOW TO GET HELP

In addition to normal office hours and laboratory visits you can meet with the Biology instructors during question period. There are three question periods throughout the term, one immediately prior to each exam, in which you can discuss questions of an academic nature with your Biology instructors. Fall term session will be held in 208 Armes (4:30 - 6:30 pm) on the following dates: Dr. Joy Stacey - October 08, 2015 Dr. Joy Stacey and Mr. Michael Shaw— November 05, 2015 Mr. Michael Shaw - December 8, 2015 Administrative help: Academic help: To: -change section -Consult your textbook for explanations. -registration or exam problems -Go to your instructor's office to get help. -report problems in lecture hall (You might want to e-mail or phone first to make -etc. sure the instructor is available). Go to the Biological Sciences office in -Try to form study groups with friends or 212B Biological Sciences Building your laboratory partners Phone: 474-9245 -Remember that the T.A. is always there for you too! Please make sure you do the following prior to emailing a course instructor: • Check this Syllabus first. If you are asking about course or exam information, chances are the answers are already in the syllabus.

6 EMAIL POLICY

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

• Use a proper salutation. “Hey prof” is not appropriate. • Always include your name. If we don’t know who you are, we will not respond to you. • Use full, properly structured sentences and do not use textese. • Use your University email account. Your U of M account is free and you can have it forwarded to any other email address. As per university policy we will only respond to email from a University of Manitoba account

We will not answer questions about lectures that require complex answers via email. Please make an appointment!

Should I read the textbook for the exam? Absolutely! The exam will be based on the lecture material. However, reading the text offers an alternative explanation for the concepts we expect you to know. Reading through the indicated modules will undoubtedly help you. If I have a conflict with the midterm, what happens? If you have a regularly schedule course activity on the evening of one of the exams take your class schedule to the main Biological Sciences office in 212 Biological Science Building and we will schedule an early write exam. If the exam conflicts with your work schedule, we expect you to reschedule your shift to sit the exam. If this is impossible, we require a letter from your employer on company header explaining that your shift cannot be changed. Bring this to documentation to the main Biological Sciences office in 212 Biological Science Building If I miss the midterm, what happens? If you have valid documentation the value of the midterm will be prorated to the final exam. If you do not have appropriate documentation, a mark of zero will be given for the midterm. If I am sick for the final, what can I do? The only thing you can do in this situation is to contact your home faculty. They are the only body that can grant a deferred exam.

VIDEO TAPES

All of the sections are taught by video. The video format is used to ensure a uniform presentation to all students in a very large class. Instructors can put more effort into lecture production when they don’t have to repeat the same lecture to numerous sections. This gives them the time to visit the labs to chat with students informally and answer questions about the course. It also gives students greater access to the lectures and greater flexibility in viewing them. If a lecture is missed, or if you which to watch a DVD it can be viewed individually in library. A problem with the video format is the lack of immediate student feedback or questions. You will have to jot down your questions and ask them later, either in the Instructor’s office, or when you next see him/her in the laboratory. Although the Coordinator does check the lecture rooms for problems, the lectures are largely unsupervised. You must be quiet in class so that all students can benefit from the lecture. Students found to be disruptive will be warned once and then ejected from the room. Once ejected, a student will not be allowed to continue in the course without a letter from the Dean or Director of his/hers Faculty of School.

ATTENDANCE

LECTURES: Punctual attendance is expected. Attend only in the section to which you have been assigned. LABORATORIES: Attendance at laboratories is mandatory. Attendance will be taken by the laboratory TA during each laboratory 2 hours into the class time. Students must be in attendance for a minimum of 2 hours. Students who miss more than 2 out of 10- labs during the regular session shall receive a grade of F for BIOL 1030 Biology 2.

STUDENT EVALUATION

The final grade in BIOL 1030 will be based on 10 MasteringBiology quizzes, 10 in Laboratory assignments and two multiple choice examinations as follows:

1. MasteringBiology Quizzes Portion of course grade (best 8 out of 10) ------------------ 10% 2. In Laboratory Assignments 1 assignment, worth 1%, to be completed in each lab. Portion of course grade --------------------------------------- 10% 3. Mid Term Examination – 1.5 Hours 70 Multiple Choice Questions - 15 based on Laboratories 1 – 5 - 55 based on Lectures 1 – 18 Scheduled by the Department (March 1, 2016 from 6:00 – 7:30 pm) Portion of course grade --------------------------------------- 35%

4. Final Examination – 2 Hours 100 Multiple Choice Questions - 5 based on Laboratories 1 – 5 - 20 based on Laboratories 6 – 10 - 10 based on Lectures 1 – 18 - 65 based on Lectures 19 – 36 Scheduled by the Registrar’s Office in the April Examination period. Final examination will be 2 hours. Portion of course grade -------------------------------------- 45 % Calculators are not allowed during examinations!

GRADING SCHEME

Grades are assigned at the end of the year by converting your cumulative percentage mark into a letter grade, using the following table: 90 + - A+ 80 - 89 - A 76 - 79 - B+ 70 - 75 - B 60 - 69 - C+ 50 - 59 - C 46 - 49 - D 0 - 45 - F Very slight modifications of this scheme are sometimes made to compensate for a class average that may be judged to be too low or too high.

LABORATORY MARKS

Each exam has a laboratory section which contributes to the total exam mark but which will also be tabulated separately. You must achieve a "D" standard in the lab (18 correct out of 40 lab questions for the year) to pass the course. If you score 17 or less out of the 40 lab marks you will receive a grade of F, regardless of your marks for the lecture questions.

MASTERING BIOLOGY QUIZ

SCHEDULE

On MasteringBiology you will see a total of 5 assignments based on Dr. Scott’s material and 5 assignments based on Dr. Zelmer’s material. These assignments are not for credit and therefore not required. However, the assignments are designed to help guide you through the material and keep you on track. Completion of these assignments will help you achieve a better grade in Biology 1030. Online assignments are a good way to test your own knowledge and understanding. You will also have 10 quizzes to complete on MasteringBiology over the term (5 based on Dr. Scott’s material and 5 based on Dr. Zelmer’s material). These quizzes are mandatory and will account for 10% of your final grade. Quizzes will become available ON the date indicated in the schedule below for 24 hours. Within this 24 hour window you must login to MasteringBiology and complete the quiz. Failure to do so before midnight will result in a grade of zero for that quiz. Do not begin a quiz too close to the deadline (Monday at midnight), as you may not have enough time to complete it. No extensions or make-up possibilities will be given for any quiz. Your best 8 (of 10) quizzes will be averaged and used to calculate your mark out of the possible 10% of your final grade.

IN LABORATORY ASSIGNMENTS

EXAM IRREGULAR-

ITIES

During each of the 10 labs, you will complete a single sheet assignment and hand it in to your lab TA. This assignment MUST be your own work and based on the results and observations in the lab. Outside information (such as the internet) is not allowed. If you miss a lab you must do a make up lab that same week to receive this mark. If you are caught in a dishonest act during the course of an examination you will be reported to University authorities and will be given "0" for the test in question. Further penalties may be imposed at the discretion of the relevant authorities.

POSTING OF ANSWERS AND

MARKS

The day after each of the two exams in the course the answers will be posted in the first floor hallway of the Buller Bldg. As soon as the tests are marked, your mark will appear next to your student number at the same location. Take note of both your total mark and your lab mark and let us know immediately if you think there has been a marking error.

LIBRARY DVD’s

Several copies of each video lecture will be made available in the Sciences and Technology Library (Machray Hall) immediately after each lecture has been shown in the lecture sections. Please view missed lectures as soon as possible as the tapes are in high demand closer to exam time.

QUESTION PERIOD

In addition to scheduled appointments, office hours and laboratory visits you can meet with your instructors during a question period. There are two question periods throughout the year, one immediately prior to each exam, in which you can discuss questions of an academic nature with your Biology instructors. Winter term question period sessions will be held in 208 Armes on the following dates and times: Dr. K. Scott—Thursday, February 25, 2016 from 4:30 to 6:30 pm Dr. Zelmer– Thursday, April 07, 2016 from 4:30 to 5:30 pm

STUDYING ANATOMY: BIOL 1410 and PHYSIOLOGY: BIOL 1412 1. ORGANIZE YOUR TIME..... Enter into a daily minder or facsimile: i) when assignments are due ii) exam dates

iii) times set every day for studying each subject (starting from the first day of lecture). 2. During lectures...listen to what is being said, then write notes. Write figure numbers and use the figures

from the text as you study. 3. Studying

i) reading the notes and text doesn’t necessarily mean that you are “studying” ii) after lecture every day--highlight the major topics in your notes. This breaks up a sea of words into more easily digestible sections! iii) read the information in each highlighted section. Use diagrams in the text as needed. Then ask yourself “what do I need to know about this?” iv) write this on scrap paper in an abbreviated form without looking at the notes. Then go back and read the notes to see if you made any mistakes or left any information out. v) you had heard the information in lecture that day, you have now read it three times that evening as you study. That’s four times in your memory! vi) try to understand the big picture of the topic– e.g. For Anatomy: What is mitosis? Then tackle the details e.g. what are the phases of mitosis? What occurs in each of these phases? For Physiology: What is the resting membrane potential? What factors produce that potential? Ask yourself these questions out loud as you study. Studying this way provides understanding which is important for anatomy and crucial for Physiology. vii) For labs, keep reviewing the material during lab and during the term.

4. Writing Exams i) Be rested, have a meal containing carbohydrates.

ii) Read each question carefully and completely. Read the stem of the question while covering the rest of the question with the computer sheet. Circle key words and draw simple diagrams at the side of the paper if applicable. Think about what the question is asking then slowly expose each answer. iii) Don’t second guess the question. Questions test knowledge and the ability to integrate the information

. iv) Do not change answers, do the question carefully and right the first time. v) Do the questions you know first, then go back to those that you were not sure about.

vi) If you don’t do well on the midterm exam, reevaluate where you might have gone wrong.

Did you leave studying for the last week before exams? Did you spend enough time studying the correct way? Did you read the questions too quickly? Was anxiety a significant problem? (Seek Help). Were you sleep deprived? Hungry? (Brain cells need glucose).

Help is available from the Academic Learning Centre and from the Instructors (by appointment).
