With the overwhelmingly positive response to the f irst edition, it was clear that Amerman's approach resonated with both instructors and students. They singled out three aspects of Amerman's approach that were particularly effective: One-concept-at-a-time art Informed by the latest research on cognitive science, Amerman reduces cognit ive load by chunking information and visually unpacking art one-concept-at-a-time. She then pulls all the information together in Big Picture figures that help students see how the distinct parts work as a whole. Coaching throughout the book Amerman begins with a unique Module 1.1 How to Succeed in Your Anatomy and Physiology Course. This f irst module sets the stage for the tone and hand-holding approach found in the rest of the book. Concept Boosts provide just-in-time coaching on tough-to understand concepts. Core Principles and Flashbacks reinforce recurring principles and anticipate students' knowledge gaps. Amerman's figures and coaching come to life via author-narrated Big Picture Animations and Concept Boost Video Tutors. The companion Active-Learning Workbook helps students actively read and engage with the chapter as they read it. Application and Critical Thinking Amerman provides ample opportunities for students to practice and develop critical thinking skills with Apply What You Learned real-world scenario questions that end each module. Chapter running case studies and other higher-level application questions are available in Mastering A&P. Module 1.1 How to Succeed in A&P Flashback Amerman includes a special section, "How to Flashback questions encourage students to Succeed in A&P," in Chapter 1, with a discussion think about previously learned concepts they about how to manage time, how to take notes, will need to apply in order to understand how to study for an A&P exam, and how to use upcoming discussions. the textbook, the companion Active-Learning Action Potent,;, 5 Workbook, and online tools.

Core Principles In Chapter 1, Amerman introduces four core principles and then highlights them throughout the textbook to remind students of the overall theme of human anatomy and physiology- homeostasis- and show how the core principles revolve around maintaining it. r~ J ~A CORE PRINCIPLE Ions nlo,·ing against their elcc1tOChemico.l gradienis 010,'C via Feedback Loops ATP-consuming pun1ps.

These cases can be found in the Instructor's Guide and are also assignable in MasteringA&P. One-concept-at-a-time art Drawing from her experience in the classroom and the latest research in cognitive science, Amerman reduces cognitive overload by visually unpacking key information using one concept-at-a-time art and Big Picture figure visual summaries.
