The first week was GREAT! Like most things, I think you will get out of this course as much as you put into it. The pass mark is 50% but I don't want to be a fifty-percenter!
Anatomy and Physiology requires a fare amount of memorisation which is something I have refrained from doing in tertiary studies wherever possible. So, now I have to rack that tiny, undeveloped part of my brain - should try some brain gym! The textbook is great and there are interactive activities with the textbook as well as a colouring book - YEAH! colour by body part. I would like to get some charts as I think these will really help.
The massage therapy class started with definitions and ended with a massage by a 2nd year student. If I could be as good at the end of my first year as the student who massaged me, I will be more than thrilled. The definitions were great because they really help you orient your thinking and discourse pattern. There was quite a bit of input from people in the class which I thoroughly enjoyed. Everybody seems very enthusiastic and seem to have a lot to offer. Also, because people come from such diverse backgrounds and experiences, the examples and situations they brought to the discussion were very interesting.
I am looking forward to a wonderful learning experience at the Cape Institute of Allied Health Studies!
