Once assigned a laboratory period, we will ask you to remain in that group. Sometimes the laboratory will meet as a single group on Tuesday or Thursday. This helps present some material that is best offered to everybody at the same time. Grading This course is designed to emphasize individual strengths. Some people do very well on ordinary written examinations.
Some folks do better on term papers and other expressions that allow time for deeper thought.
Still others do well in different ways. We can accommodate these differences in learning and expression by constructing the course from a variety of experiences. I ask each of you to conduct a review of a discrete area of insect physiology. The length is inclusive with all references, figures and tables. The review should summarize the literature you studied, then express a coherent point of view on the topic.
