Welcome to PEP326L Fundamentals of Exercise Physiology |
|
Fundamentals of Exercise Physiology Syllabus of Current Semester: IN PROGRESS |
|
1) Each week we will have Exercise Physiology topical content which I will discuss with written information and short Youtube videos. There will be ONE WEB PAGE link for you to follow for each week (See below).
2) Every student will work at her/his OWN pace, on your own time, through each week's content.
3) At the end of the content for each week is an OPEN NOTE Exam, from the content that I provide you for that week.
4) Each Exam is due by the Friday of that week at midnight (no late papers accepted). The 'weight' of each exam is the same as in the course syllabus.
5) Your Final Exam for PEP326L will also be a take-home exam due Wednesday May 11 by midnight.
SPECIAL NOTE: Each of the Links below will be ACTIVATED for student access on the MONDAY of that week. |
