Anatomy & Physiology

Students will appreciate the voice and approach of the text (like the author is speaking with them during office hours), but most importantly the focus on metacognition and learning science will help them improve as students, both within the A&P classroom and beyond. Track your scores and stay motivated to achieve your goals. MindTap helps you identify areas in need of improvement and where you need to focus your efforts. Highlight key text, add notes and create custom flashcards. When it�s time to study, you can easily gather everything you�ve flagged or noted into an organized, effective study guide.

About the Author

Liz (Elizabeth) Co is an assistant clinical professor in the Departments of Biology and Health Sciences at Boston University. She teaches human anatomy, human physiology and physiology of reproduction classes. As a professor, Dr. Co is renowned for her passion -- both about the human body and about learning itself. In 2018 she was nominated by students and members of the faculty at Boston University and received the Metcalf Award for Excellence in Teaching, Boston University's highest teaching award. Dr. Co's current research focuses on learning, particularly critical-thinking skills development. Within her large introductory courses she integrates an active learning and study skills curriculum. One of the focal points she investigates is how "student awareness about their learning impacts their assessment performance." She serves on the physiology learning objective panel of the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society, and works with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute on a project developing educational resources for use in anatomy, physiology and biology courses.
