In this unit, we learned about the body's skeletal system, in which we were exposed to the various joints and their functions, skeletal disorders, bone fractures, and the types of bones we have in our body. I found this unit relatively interesting, specifically the lecture on bone fractures since it was interesting to learn how bone fractures undergo repair; I also want to learn more in depth of the different types of fractures (e.g. an impacted fracture) since I thought it was interesting to see how a broken bone can lead to various fracture types. I also really enjoyed dissecting the owl pellet since I found it enjoyable to compare and contrast human skeletons compared to bird/rodent skeletons. The lab also enabled me to learn, understand, and memorize the different types of bones that the body possesses.
This semester, I feel that I've been learning more efficiently by studying earlier for tests and quizzes and reviewing the lecture material shortly after the lecture to prevent myself from forgetting the material easily. Originally, I would cram last minute for test by sleeping little the night before; however, after learning of the problems associated with a diminished amount of sleep, I've attempted to reverse this by avoiding the urge to procrastinate and sleeping at an earlier time.
