Most Asked - Lab Week 2, pt. 2

There seems to be some confusion about the lab tutor schedule that was sent out via mass email.

While I am happy to answer any questions regarding the course and related topics, lab tutors are there for additional help in the lab itself. The lecture topics are completely different and the lab tutors are not kept up to date on them. So, if you have questions regarding lecture topics, or need to know what you will be tested on, the best person to ask is your professor. If you continue to struggle with lecture material, consider requesting additional tutoring sessions outside of the lab.

If lab concepts seem to be a problem area, feel free to go to additional lab sessions, especially when tutors are available. Because the semester just started, the labs are still very full and space is limited, so please make sure to check in with the appropriate professor before attending a lab you are not scheduled for. In my experience, the crowd starts to thin out around the second half of the lab, so that may be a better time to stop in, at least for the next few weeks. Also keep in mind the the Student Success Center has similar lab models and diagrams available and their hours are much more flexible.

In the last couple of lab sessions, I have gotten a lot of questions regarding the bone model at Table 2. Here is a video that explains the anatomy of a long bone and osteon using the same model seen in lab.
