| Description |
Collection Description This collection is designed to help students gain a deeper understanding of neural physiology for improved student outcomes. Describe how this collection was used. I used the topics in the articles in my lecture class and added the power point slide to my presentation. The rest of the collection was uploaded to the web part of the course and assigned as an activity to students followed by a graded quiz. Students viewed the three videos, completed the tutorial on "How Neurons Work" and completed practice quizzes I assigned from Web Anatomy. After completing the activities and following their readings and lecture, they completed an online graded quiz over the material. Describe who used this collection (classroom, laboratory, education level, etc). This was used in undergraduate part 1 Anatomy and Physiology lecture class. Describe how this collection works. This collection is designed to help students gain a deeper understanding of Action Potentials, events at the synapse, EPSP's and IPSP's. Please enter suggestions for colleagues. Presenting an animation of the nerve impulse is helpful prior lecture on the topic so that students have a moving picture in mind when covering the steps. The rest of the materials may be used as an in class activity or assigned as a homework activity. Some amount of credit should be given as an incentive for students to complete the work, and I found a graded quiz to be useful. With the quiz, the students get points and the instructor can evaluate their understanding of the topic. | |||

This collection has two interesting articles with ways to teach action potential propagation. These are better suited for college courses than high school classes. I use the first 2 animation links in my high school Anatomy and Physiology class.

I thought these could be very useful in helping students "see" concepts many otherwise have trouble with.

The journal articles in this collection provide good examples of how to teach neuronphysiology. The web anatomy is a good resource for quick quizzes.
—Jason LaPres, Lone Star College - University Park
The animation on nerve impulse is an exellent resource which depicts the genesis of RMP an acion potential.
