Vocabulary: A predominant pillar of learning in A&P is improved scientific literacy by developing commonly used affixes (prefixes and suffixes) and roots in scientific fields.

At the beginning of each section, the student will be given a list of affixes and/or root words to learn. These stems/roots will be tested via either quiz or as part of the unit test.

Homework: Due to the depth and breadth of information covered in this course, homework will be assigned to gain a better understanding. Homework will consist of either a worksheet or an online quiz available on Google Forms.

Assessments: Quizzes will be short answer. Tests will be multiple choice, potentially with a few short answer or matching questions.
