Study Skills Corner Slides (PowerPoint)

These PowerPoint presentations will provide you with some basic study skills and tools that will help you in your study of Anatomy & Physiology. 

The presentations were initially designed to be used during a portion of the A&P Laboratory (which I no longer do because of time constraints), so some of the material on the slides is geared towards a lecture/question-answer format, rather than a self-learning format.  Just work around that material, and if you have questions about the slides please feel free to e-mail me or ask me in Lab.
