Module Overview

NUR III7
This module will develop knowledge and understanding of the normal structure and function of the human body.  Following an introduction to the basic principles of anatomy and physiology, learning will take a ‘tissues to systems’ approach to guide student learning. Body systems covered include: integumentary, musculo-skeletal, digestive, renal and cardiovascular systems. Knowledge of these systems is fundamental to, and underpins, the nursing practice modules for this semester.

Upon completion of the module, students will be able to:

1.     Demonstrate accurate use of a broad range of anatomical terms;

2.     Explain the basis of homeostasis;

3.     Identify cellular components and their respective function;

4.     Discuss the importance of chemistry in the human body;

5.     Describe the structural components of each of the body systems covered;

6.     Identify a comprehensive range of anatomical structures in each of the body systems covered;

7.     Explain the underlying physiological processes within each of the body systems covered; and

8.     Discuss the principles of nutrition, metabolism and temperature regulation.
