Outcome 1: Students will demonstraate a coherent understanding of the concepts presented in BIOG 1445 Introduction to comparative Physiology, Individualized Instruction.

Outcome 2: Students will apply analytic thought to the body of knowledge presented in BIOG 1445 Introduction to Comparative Physiology, Individualized Instruction - identify relevant assumptions and formulate coherent arguments.

Outcome 3: Students will demonstrate the ability to define problems; differentiate between cause and effect relationships and correlations; apply the scientific principles from BIOG 1445 Introduction to Comparative Physiology, Individualized Instruction to novel situations, including problems with no single correct answer and incomplete information.

Outcome 4: During weekly activities, students will express ideas clearly and work effectively with other students. Students also will incorporate successful strategies for the deep learning of modern Biology such as effective note-taking, exam preparation, stress and time management, and procrastination reduction.

Outcome 5: Students will work independently as well as in groups and take responsibility for strengthening their scientific thinking.
