Learning objective Time taken Learning Outcome Learning activity with opportunity to develop skills Assessment opportunities Resources Required practical 5: Dissection of animal or plant respiratory system or mass transport system or of an organ within such a system (could also be met in section 3.3.2 by lung, gill or insect dissection). The gross structure of the human heart. 0.2 weeks Describe and label the structure of the heart. Explain differences in the thickness of cardiac muscle between the atria and ventricles and between different sides of the heart. Explain the role of the atrio-ventricular and semilunar valves. Explain the role of the coronary artery. Learning activities: introduce students to the external structure of the heart and discuss the key features eg role of the coronary artery teacher explanation of the gross internal structure of the heart, building on GCSE knowledge. Link the structure back to the double circulatory system students to perform a dissection, using instruction sheet students identify key internal structures/chambers. Skills developed by learning activities: AT j – dissect mammalian 8.4.2.1 and 8.4.2.3 AO1 – development of knowledge on the structure of the heart. Exampro: BYB3 – Jan 2006 Q1a BYA1 – June 2005 Q2
