LEARNING OUTCOMES : 3.2
LEARNING OBJECTIVES : By the end of the lesson students were be able to understand response and coordination.
SUCCESS CRITERIA(SMART):
Students will be successful if they can :-
1. Draw and label thea simple diagram of a synapse,
2. Describe the transmission of information across synapses
3. State the role of synapse in transmission.
4. Give examples of voluntary and involuntary action
5. Outline the transmission of information in voluntary action
6. Outline the transmission of information in involuntary action.
LESSON OUTLINE :
INDUCTION
Students view computer animation on transmission of information in the form of electrical signals.
ACTIVITY
1. Students discuss the mode of transmission of information along the neurone.
2. Students draw a schematic diagram to show the pathway of transmission of information along the neurone.
3. Students draw and label a simple diagram of synapse.
4. Students discuss transmission of information across the synapse and role of the synapse transmission.
5. Students view diagram examples of voluntary action and involuntary action.
Vuluntary action ex: raising your hand to answer questions
Involuntary action involving skeletal muscles ex. Knee jerk
Involuntary action involving smooth muscles, cardiac muscles/glands ex: Normal Blood Pressure
6. Students draw a schematic diagram of a reflex arc.
