Prerequisites:
One of Grade 12 Anatomy and Physiology, Biology, Chemistry or Physics with a grade of C or better; or one of BPK 105, BPK 110, BPK 143, BISC 100, BISC 113 or HSCI 100 with a grade of C or better.
Description
CALENDAR DESCRIPTION:
Survey of theories and laboratory procedures for assessing human health status and physical performance, including biomechanics, body composition, development, environmental physiology, ergonomics, exercise physiology and motor learning. Functional anatomy and physiology of the cardiovascular, nervous, respiratory, skeletal and skeletal muscle systems in relation to physical activity are explored. Breadth-Science.
COURSE DETAILS:
The objective of BPK 142 is to introduce a variety of topics found in the field of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology. Theoretical concepts and current laboratory techniques will be discussed. This remote course will include a one hour live lecture and a two hour live laboratory session each week. This is the second time that we have offered this course remotely and we may need to modify the schedule during the semester.
Lecture: synchronous (9-10 am on Tuesday); asynchronous (recorded lectures)
Laboratory: synchronous (2 hours); Lab sessions start the first week of classes (Sept 9, 10) Students MUST attend the online lab session for which they have registered.
The laboratory manual is essential and you will be able to download an electronic version of the lab manual from the BPK 142 Canvas site.

REQUIREMENTS:
Prerequisite: Recommended: Grade 11 Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Students with credit for BPK 142 may not take this course for further credit. Breadth-Science.
You will require a computer with a camera and microphone for this remote course. You will be using Microsoft Excel for some of the lab exercises. You will require a stable highspeed internet connection for lectures, labs and exams.
All exams will be proctored using Zoom or auto proctoring software recommended by SFU.
Materials
REQUIRED READING:
Asmundson, R.C., Carter, J., Walsh, M. and Ward, R., BPK 142 – Introduction to Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology Laboratory Manual. Thirteenth Edition. Simon Fraser University, 2020.
RECOMMENDED READING:
There is no single text that fully encompasses the topics in this course. All lecture Word and PowerPoint files will be put on Canvas. There is also an online OpenStax Anatomy and Physiology textbook that you will be to download for free from the BPK 142 Canvas site The laboratory manual is essential and can be obtained from the SFU Bookstore.
Department Undergraduate Notes:
It is the responsibility of the student to keep their BPK course outlines if they plan on furthering their education.
Registrar Notes:
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: YOUR WORK, YOUR SUCCESS
SFU’s Academic Integrity web site http://www.sfu.ca/students/academicintegrity.html is filled with information on what is meant by academic dishonesty, where you can find resources to help with your studies and the consequences of cheating. Check out the site for more information and videos that help explain the issues in plain English.
Each student is responsible for his or her conduct as it affects the University community. Academic dishonesty, in whatever form, is ultimately destructive of the values of the University. Furthermore, it is unfair and discouraging to the majority of students who pursue their studies honestly. Scholarly integrity is required of all members of the University. http://www.sfu.ca/policies/gazette/student/s10-01.html
TEACHING AT SFU IN FALL 2020
Teaching at SFU in fall 2020 will be conducted primarily through remote methods. There will be in-person course components in a few exceptional cases where this is fundamental to the educational goals of the course. Such course components will be clearly identified at registration, as will course components that will be “live” (synchronous) vs. at your own pace (asynchronous). Enrollment acknowledges that remote study may entail different modes of learning, interaction with your instructor, and ways of getting feedback on your work than may be the case for in-person classes. To ensure you can access all course materials, we recommend you have access to a computer with a microphone and camera, and the internet. In some cases your instructor may use Zoom or other means requiring a camera and microphone to invigilate exams. If proctoring software will be used, this will be confirmed in the first week of class.
Students with hidden or visible disabilities who believe they may need class or exam accommodations, including in the current context of remote learning, are encouraged to register with the SFU Centre for Accessible Learning (caladmin@sfu.ca or 778-782-3112).
