Human Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory Manual Making Connections, Main Version

Fully engage students in their A&P Lab experience

Human Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory Manual: Making Connections distinguishes itself from other A&P lab manuals by focusing on and addressing the most common teaching challenges in the lab—getting students to engage in the lab, to prepare for the lab, and to apply concepts in the lab. Catharine Whiting’s active learning approach incorporates a rich variety of hands-on activities and guided questions to get students engaged and asking questions. The 2nd Edition provides new features, such as “What You Need to Know Before You Start this Unit” at the beginning of each Unit and new Pre-Lab Video Coaching Activities to help students learn what they need to review before lab.

Developed as the companion to Erin Amerman’s Human Anatomy & Physiology, 2nd Edition, Whiting’s lab manual reflects the same superb art program and terminology found in the Amerman textbook.

Human Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory Manual: Making Connections, 2nd Edition is available in three versions for your students:  Main, Cat and Fetal Pig. The Cat and Fetal Pig versions are identical to the Main version except that they include seven additional cat dissection and nine additional fetal pig dissection exercises, respectively, at the back of the lab manual.  

Also available with Mastering A&P

Catharine C. Whiting, University of North Georgia

Cathy Whiting began her college career at Waycross Junior College before transferring to the University of Georgia and earning a B.S. degree in biology. She earned both M.S.T. and Ph.D. degrees in zoology at the University of Florida, training under an extraordinary mentor, Dr. Louis J. Guillette, a distinguished researcher, author, and educator who taught her how to do science and, more importantly, how to teach. With 25 years of college teaching experience, Whiting seeks to engage her students through active learning in order to facilitate the development of critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. She has discovered that passionate teaching leads to passionate learning and that students don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. The recipient of several teaching awards including Faculty Member of the Year, Advisor of the Year, and Master Teacher, she considers her greatest reward to be the privilege of teaching and impacting the lives of students.
