Course Syllabi websitesThis is a featured page

Listed here are some particularly innovative syllabi for Anatomy & Physiology courses around the world. Whether you're constructing a syllabus for the first time, or trying to rejuvenate a 20-year old course, here's a chance to peer over the shoulder of instructors elsewhere to get a sense of what actually happens in their classrooms.
Note: This is not intended as an extensive list of all the wonderful A&P courses. Rather, we chose to highlight some syllabi that had considerable, publicly-accessible web content and especially unusual or creative assignments and activities.
