Physiological processes to real-world scenarios.

Your post should be between 100-300 words. Your initial post should be thoughtful and help spark discussion -do not just copy typed notes! Here are some ideas of what you can write about…

• Check out the list of questions in further Questions for Investigate, and address one of the questions related to the lecture! When addressing these questions, use terminology from the lecture. By the way, you won’t ever be tested on the questions on this list; these additional questions are only meant to spark curiosity and discussion in this forum :)

  •  Bring up a question, confusion, or issue related to course material you want input on.
  •  What resonated with you from the lecture. Why?
  •  Summarize a big idea or insight that you took away from the lecture.
  •  Investigate and describe possible clinical applications of what was discussed in the lecture.
  •  Link or attach a specific resource (video, article, image, etc.) that explains a related topic in extra depth and explain why it could be useful.
  •  Is there something you were hoping to learn about in this lecture that didn’t get talked about? If so, what?
  •  Make a meme that summarizes an important concept from the lecture.
  •  Discuss study techniques for specific lecture topics
