NOTES:

Experiment Summary Sheets  

1. Experiment Summary Sheets are required for most of the experiments that are performed in this course. Do not leave the lab until you are sure that you have collected and recorded all of the required information. Experiment Summary Sheets due the following week must be handed in at the beginning of the lab period. Summary sheets that are submitted late will be assessed a late penalty of 20 percent per day late.  
2. You may submit data sheets ONLY for those lab sessions that you have attended. If you miss a lab session without PRIOR permission from your teaching assistant and a valid medical note, you will receive a mark of zero for the section of the data sheets concerned. Because of limitations in time, personnel and resources, make up labs will not be allowed. Legitimate excuses for not being able to attend or participate in a laboratory session should be discussed with the teaching assistant or instructor IN ADVANCE. Messages can be left at the Department of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology Office (K9625) by phoning 778-782-3573 between 8:30am and 4:30 pm Monday to Friday.   
3. You must attend the laboratory session for which you are registered. If, due to unavoidable circumstances during one week, you are unable to attend your regular laboratory session, you must obtain prior permission from the teaching assistant before attending a different laboratory session.  

• At exactly 30 minutes past the hour at the beginning of the lab a quick five question quiz will be held. This will focus on the material read in advance of the current lab as indicated in the lab schedule reading list. If you are late for the lab you will have missed the quiz.    

•  Format - fill-in-the-blank questions, short answer, essay, and student provided questions.  The exam will be based on lecture material (including Word files, PowerPoint files, and oral communication in lecture) to the end of the Biomechanics lectures.  
• Percent contribution to final grade – 15 %  

• Format - this exam will consist (units 1-15) of an anatomy exam (oesteology, arthrology, myology, and organs) and the following categories of questions: a) Describe a procedure (detailed description of how to measure) - anthropometry, flexibility testing, muscle testing. b) Calculations - from Biomechanics Lab as described in "Laboratory Review Questions - Part 1". c) Movement analysis question(s) - a diagram of a movement will be given and you must analyze all of the joints actions and prime mover muscles. d) Other questions from "Laboratory Review Questions - Part 1".  
• Percent contribution to final grade – 14 %  

• Format - This exam will consist of two parts - a spot anatomy exam in your laboratory session during the thirteenth week of the semester, and a written exam during the scheduled final exam.   Anatomy exam in lab - You will be examined on all of the anatomy (this includes structures, some functions, and some movements) that has been covered in the laboratory sessions in BPK142.
• Percent contribution to final grade – 10 %    
• Written exam in final exam period - will include the following categories: a) Cardiovascular anatomy b) Describe a procedure (detailed description of how to measure) - pulmonary function (Surrey class), blood pressure, Astrand Test, maximum oxygen uptake test (Burnaby class). c) Movement analysis question(s) - a diagram of a movement will be given and you must analyze all of the joints actions and prime mover muscles. d) You will be asked to do a heart rate calculation, work rate calculation, and a ventilatory calculation. e) Other questions from "Laboratory Review Questions - Part II" and lab material.  
• Percent contribution to final grade – 14 %

• Format –fill-in-the-blank questions and short answers and student provided questions.  The exam will be based on lecture material starting from the "Biomechanics" lecture onwards (Biomechanics is on the final lecture exam).  You are not responsible for lecture material prior to the Biomechanics lecture, for the final lecture exam.  
• Percent contribution to final grade – 27 % 

1. All students are expected to be in the laboratory on time and ready to work. The doors to the lab will be opened at 20 minutes past the hour.  
2. At the beginning of each laboratory session, a short pre-lab quiz will be held and then the operation of new and unfamiliar equipment will be demonstrated.  
3. Unless advised to the contrary, students should normally come to the laboratory dressed in gym strip, i.e., T-shirts, shorts and running shoes. For certain experiments, subjects will be chosen one week in advance so that they can come to the laboratory properly prepared.  
4. Handle the equipment carefully. However, if you do damage something, please inform the laboratory personnel so that it can be repaired or replaced as soon as possible.  
5. Clean up after yourself. All equipment should be returned to the exact place from which it was gathered in a clean, neat, and usable condition. DO NOT REMOVE EQUIPMENT OR TEXTBOOKS FROM THE LABORATORY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.  
6. Because of limitations in time, personnel and resources, make-up labs will not be allowed. Legitimate excuses for not being able to attend or participate in a laboratory session should be discussed with the teaching assistant or instructor IN ADVANCE. Messages can be left at the BPK Office (K9625) by phoning 778-782-3573 between 8:30am and 4:00 pm Monday to Friday.  
7. You must attend the laboratory session for which you are registered. If, due to unavoidable circumstances during one week, you are unable to attend your regular laboratory session, you must obtain prior permission from the teaching assistant before attending a different laboratory session.
