  • Junk DNA, or pseudogenes, is a rather abstract concept for beginning learners, so perhaps an analogy is in order.

      Flashcards: Hidden Powers | Episode 58


      If you think you know flashcards, think again. Host Kevin Patton outlines the learning science behind flashcards, then shows how they can go way beyond simple memorization in the first of a multipart series on the hidden powers of flashcards. Updates in gene therapy to grow brain cells and smelling without olfactory bulbs.

      Memorization has gotten a bad rap recently. Lots of students, and even some educators, say that being able to reason is more important than knowing facts; and besides, why bother committing things to memory when you've got Google? My response to this - after I've finished inwardly groaning - is that of course reasoning is important, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't know facts as well. It's not like you have to choose between one or the other. Besides, facts give you a foundation on which to reason about things. (Stefanie Weisman)

      Introduction to Flashcards

      12 minutes
      A recent blog post from learning scientist Pooja Agarwal about flashcards got me thinking about how underappreciated this powerful study tool is. So off we go on a multi-part series (spanning more than one episode) we could call "Flashcards Unleashed." In this segment, some basics:
      1. Language learning —There are 3,957 glossary entries in Kevin's 2-semester A&P textbook, but even trimming that down to 1,000 new terms, students have 35 new terms to master every week.
      2. Leitner System and PALS: Patton's Adaptation of the Leitner System

      1. Flashcards are just one tool in the A&P learning toolbox.
      2. We compare prepared cards and handmade cards.
      3. Kevin tells a story from the olden days (of course).
      4. Flashcard basics and the concept of a personalized wiki of A&P information.
      5. The role of pronunciation in learning new terms.
      6. Word parts in flashcards.

      • Word Dissection: segment dissecting terminology that'll be used in (or relates to) the full episode, just like we do for our own A&P students —to get us ready to fully experience the full episode.
      • The A&P Professor Book Club: recommendations from Kevin (and from listeners like you) regarding books of interest to A&P teachers

      But wait! There's more! Sometimes. Like in the preview episode for this full episode, there's a segment all about the features of the free TAPP app and Kevin plays a clip from a recent audio/video review of this podcast by podcasting experts.

      More on Spelling, Case, & Grammar | Episode 56


      Revisiting an earlier discussion of his hard-line stance on misspelling, host Kevin Patton clarifies the history and context of his current strategy. Plus updates on macrophages that line joints and sugar-coated RNA —and tips on safely labeling our lab models.

      glycoRNA

      6 minutes

      Yep, yet another form of RNA has been discovered. This "sugar-coated" RNA is a small, noncoding RNA called Y RNA that has been glycosylated with an N-glycan. What do glycoRNAs do? What does that mean? Listen and learn.

      • Sugar-coated RNAs could ‘alter the face of biochemistry as we know it’—if they’re real (news summary) my-ap.us/2rDI6uy
      • Mammalian Y RNAs are modified at discrete guanosine residues with N-glycans (research article) my-ap.us/2KcmvQc

      Barrier Macrophages

      11 minutes

       

      We knew there were macrophages within, and upon, the synovial membrane that lines synovial joints. What we have just learned is that macrophages on the synovial membrane surface can bind with tight junctions to form a barrier layer. Go figure.

      • Macrophages form a protective cellular barrier in joints (news summary) my-ap.us/33KVuLm
      • Locally renewing resident synovial macrophages provide a protective barrier for the joint (research article) my-ap.us/33H5e9H

      Labeling Lab Models

      14 minutes

      Kathryn Chipchase is concerned about damaging her new anatomical models when labeling them with lab tape for practical tests.  So Kevin does some research. Listen to the results of his search. Oh, and find out the first rule of Tape Club, too!

      Sometimes a student frets about the A&P course being "not a spelling course" or "not an English course" — but professional communication is an essential skill for health professionals. Why not add this statement to our syllabus and/or other course documents?
