Abstract
General Anatomy and Physiology is a significant course in a student´s science curriculum, which provides a foundation for those who wish to pursue a career in the medical field. There is a vast amount of information that is taught concerning many different topics of study. Within our class, this information was delivered using many different methods. This paper provides a student´s perspective of a High School General Anatomy and Physiology Course, and the effectiveness of each strategy used. We have outlined the syllabus and teaching mechanisms utilized, while offering suggestions and opinions as to how the course has proved successful, and what can be done to further improve it.
